Answer:117.6N

Explanation:

Mass=12kg

Acceleration due to gravity=9.8m/s^2

weight=mass x acceleration due to gravity

Weight=12 x 9.8

Weight=117.6N

Answer: 117.60N

Explanation:

Weight is a force. Therefore, we can use the force formula to find weight.

Formula: W=m*g

W = weight

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)

W=(12kg)(9.8m/s^2)\\W=117.60N

With the aid of a string, a gyroscope is accelerated from rest to 32 rad/s in 0.40 s. What is its angular acceleration in rad/s2
Irina-Kira [14]
<h2>Angular acceleration is 80 rad/s² </h2><h2>Number of revolutions undergone is 1.02</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial angular velocity, u = 0 rad/s

     Final angular velocity, v = 32 rad/s    

     Time, t = 0.40 s

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      32 = 0 + a x 0.40

                      a = 80 rad/s²

     Angular acceleration is 80 rad/s²

  We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial angular velocity, u = 0 rad/s

        Angular acceleration, a = 80 rad/s²

        Time, t = 0.4 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 0.4 + 0.5 x 80 x 0.4²

                      s = 6.4 rad

      Angular displacement  = 6.4 rad

     \texttt{Number of revolutions = }\frac{6.4}{2\pi}=1.02

Number of revolutions undergone is 1.02

A bat strikes a 0.145-kg baseball. Just before impact, the ball is traveling horizontally to the right at 60.0 m/s , and it leav
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

F = -307.4 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg

Initial speed of the baseball, u = 60 m/s

Final speed of the baseball, v=65\ cos(30)=56.29\ m/s

Time of contact, t=1.75\ ms=1.75\times 10^{-3}\ s

(a) It is assumed to find the horizontal component of average force. It is given by :

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}

F=0.145\dfrac{56.29-60}{1.75\times 10^{-3}}

F = -307.4 N

So, the horizontal component of average force is 307.4 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is dark energy and what evidence do astronomers have that it is an important component of the universe?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The existance of dark energy was suggested to help explain measurements, using Type Ia supernovae as distance indicators, that the expansion of the universe is speeding up and its acceleration requires a source of energy. Scientists suggested that It may be a new form of energy for which there is not yet a theoretical explanation. quantum mechanics predict that it may be the vacuum energy associated with "empty" space itself.

Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev
Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s
