An electric motor rotating a workshop grinding wheel at 1.00 × 10² rev/min is switched off. Assume the wheel has a constant nega
ololo11 [35]

An electric engine turning a workshop sanding rotation at 1.00 × 10² rev/min is switched off. Take the wheel includes a regular negative angular acceleration of volume 2.00 rad/s². 5.25 moments long it takes the grinding rotation to control.

<h3>What is negative angular acceleration?</h3>
  • A particle that has a negative angular velocity rotates counterclockwise.
  • Negative angular acceleration () is a "push" that is hence counterclockwise.
  • The body will speed up or slow down depending on whether and have the same sign (and eventually go in reverse).
  • For instance, when an object rotating counterclockwise slows down, acceleration would be negative.
  • If a rotating body's angular speed is seen to grow in a clockwise direction and decrease in a counterclockwise direction, it is given a negative sign.
  • It is known that a change in the linear acceleration correlates to a change in the linear velocity.

Let t be the time taken to stop.

ω = 0 rad/s

Use the first equation of motion for rotational motion

ω = ωo + α t

0 = 10.5 - 2 x t

t = 5.25 second

. Light travels at a speed of about 300 000 km/s. a. Express this value in scientific notation. b. Convert this value to meters
olganol [36]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

light speed = 300 000 km/s

a) Express it in scientific notation

to do it, we just move the decimal point 5 places to the left

         300 000 = 3.0 x 10 ⁵ km/s

b) Convert this value to meters per hour

  (300 000 km/s)(1000 m/1 km)(3600 s/1 h) = 300000x1000x3600 / 1x1x1

                                                                        = 1.08 x 10¹² m/h

c) What distance in centimeters does light travel in 1 s?

data

v = 300 000 km/s

d = ?

t = 1 s

 formula   v = d/t      we clear distance     d = vxt

                                  d = 300000 x 1 = 300000 km

                                   d = 300000000 m = 30000000000 cm

A race car circles 10 times around a circular 8.0-km track in 20 min.
Otrada [13]
Find the average speed and the average velocity.

Average speed = distance / time

distance = 10 x 8000 m = 80,000 m
time = 20 min * 60 s/min = 1200 s

Average speed = 80,000 m / 1200 s = 66.67 m/s

Average velocity = displacement / time

Given that the race car made complete circles the final poin is the same initial point, then its displacement is zero and the average velocity is zero too.

a nonrelativistic proton is confined to a length of 2.0 pm on the x-axis. what is the kinetic energy of the proton if its speed
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

K = 1.29eV

Explanation:

In order to calculate the kinetic energy of the proton you first take into account the uncertainty principle, which is given by:

\Delta x \Delta p\geq \frac{h}{4\pi}      (1)

Δx : uncertainty of position = 2.0pm = 2.0*10^-12m

Δp: uncertainty of momentum = ?

h: Planck's constant = 6.626*10^-34 J.s

You calculate the minimum possible value of Δp from the equation (1):

\Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi \Delta x}=\frac{6.626*10^{-34}J.s}{4\pi(2.0*10^{-12}m)}\\\\\Delta p=2.63*10^{-23}kg.\frac{m}{s}

The minimum kinetic energy is calculated by using the following formula:

k=\frac{(\Delta p)^2}{2m}       (2)

m: mass of the proton = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

k=\frac{(2.63*10^{-23}kgm/s)^2}{2(1.67*10^{-27}kg)}=2.08*10^{-19}J

in eV you have:

2.08*10^{-19}J*\frac{6.242*10^{18}eV}{1J}=1.29eV

The kinetic energy of the proton is 1.29eV
