Answer:

The Rock

Explanation:

The paper is very thin and light so it has more air reisistance which will cause it to fall slower than the rock that has a larger density.

Acceleration toward the center of a curved path is called

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration.

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is a property of a body moving in a uniform circular path and it is directed radially towards the center of the circle in which body is rotating.

The force which causes this acceleration is centripetal force which is also directed towards the center of the circle and pulls the body towards its center.

It is calculated through following formula

$a=v^2/r$

where v is velocity and r is the radius of the circle.

A constant torque of 3 Nm is applied to an unloaded motor at rest at time t = 0. The motor reaches a speed of 1,393 rpm in 4 s.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

The moment of inertia of the motor is 0.0823 Newton-meter-square seconds.

Explanation:

From Newton's Laws of Motion and Principle of Motion of D'Alembert, the net torque of a system ( $\tau$ ), measured in Newton-meters, is:

$\tau = I\cdot \alpha$ (1)

Where:

$I$ - Moment of inertia, measured in Newton-meter-square seconds.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

If motor have an uniform acceleration, then we can calculate acceleration by this formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega - \omega_{o}}{t}$ (2)

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ - Initial angular speed, measured in radians per second.

$\omega$ - Final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that $\tau = 3\,N\cdot m$ , $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s }$ , $\omega = 145.875\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $t = 4\,s$ , then the moment of inertia of the motor is:

$\alpha = \frac{145.875\,\frac{rad}{s}-0\,\frac{rad}{s}}{4\,s}$

$\alpha = 36.469\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

$I = \frac{\tau}{\alpha}$

$I = \frac{3\,N\cdot m}{36.469\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }$

$I = 0.0823\,N\cdot m\cdot s^{2}$

The moment of inertia of the motor is 0.0823 Newton-meter-square seconds.

A coaxial cable consists of a solid inner cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm and an outer cylindrical shell of inner radius 3

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

d) 1.2 mT

Explanation:

Here we want to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 mm from the axis of the coaxial cable.

First of all, we observe that:

- The internal cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm can be treated as a conductive wire placed at the axis of the cable, since here we are analyzing the field outside the radius of the conductor. The current flowing in this conductor is

I = 15 A

- The external conductor, of radius between 3 mm and 3.5 mm, does not contribute to the field at r = 2.5 mm, since 2.5 mm is situated before the inner shell of the conductor (at 3 mm).

Therefore, the net magnetic field is just given by the internal conductor. The magnetic field produced by a wire is given by

$B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}$

where

$\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability

I = 15 A is the current in the conductor

r = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m is the distance from the axis at which we want to calculate the field

Substituting, we find:

$B=\frac{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7})(15)}{2\pi(0.0025)}=1.2\cdot 10^{-3}T = 1.2 mT$
