If a car moves with a uniform speed of 2m/s in a circle of radius 0.4m, what is its angular speed?
REY [17]

Answer:

The car's angular speed is \frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

Angular velocity is usually measured with \frac{radians}{sec}, so I'm going to use that to answer your question.

The relationship between tangential velocity and angular velocity (ω)  is given by:

V = \omega R

Using the values from the question, we get:

2 \frac{m}{s} = \omega (0.4m)

\omega = 5 \frac{rad}{s}

Therefore, the car's angular speed is 5 \frac{rad}{s}.

Hope this helped!

A 1100-kg car pulls a boat on a trailer. (a) what total force resists the motion of the car, boat, and trailer, if the car exert
jeka94
Refer to the diagram shown below.

R = total resistive force.
      80% of this force is experienced by the boat and trailer.
T =  the force in the hitch between the car and the trailer.

Overall motion:
Total mass = 1100 + 700 = 1800 kg
Acceleration = 0.55 m/s²
Driving force = 1900 N
Resisting force = R N
Therefore
(1900 - R N) = (1800 kg)*(0.55 m/s²)
1900 - R = 990
R = 910 N
0.2R = 182 N
0.8R = 728 N

Consider the motion of the car:
Driving force = 1900 N
Resistive force = 0.2R = 182 N
Force in the hitch  = T NAcceleration = 0.55 m/s²
Mass  = 1100 kg
Therefore
1900 - 0.2R - T = 1100*0.55
1900 - 182 -T = 605
T = 1113 N

Answer:
R = 910 N, the total resistive force.
T = 1113 N, the force in the hitch between the car and trailer.

One horsepower is a unit of power equal to 746 W. How much energy can a 150-horsepower engine transform in 10.0 s?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

E = 1119000\ joules

Explanation:

Given:

1\ Hp = 746\ watt

time (t = 10.0 sec)

power = 150 Hp

We need to find the energy transformed by a 150 Hp engine in 10 s.

Solution:

First we convert 150 Hp in watt.

1\ Hp = 746\ watt

150\ Hp = 150\times 746\ watt

150\ Hp = 111900\ watt

So, power (p = 111900 watt)

We know that, if we multiply power by time, we get energy transform by engine.

P = \frac{E}{t}

E = P\times t\ joule  -----------(1)

Where:

P ⇒ power.

E ⇒ Energy.

t ⇒ time.

Substitute p = 111900 watt and t = 10 s in equation 1.

E = 111900\times 10

E = 1119000\ joules

Therefore, a 150 Hp engine could transform 1,119,000 joules energy  in 10 s.

While playing her guitar , karen plucks one string with increasing levels of force. What effect does this have on the sound prod
Lena [83]

Answer:

The amplitude of vibration of string will increase due to which loudness of sound will increase

Explanation:

As we know that the guitar is based on the principle of Resonance. When string of the guitar vibrates at a given frequency then the sound produced in the hollow part of the guitar will also be at same frequency.

This is known as resonance condition, so guitar will produce same frequency sound as that of frequency of string.

Now if the string is plucked with increasing level of force then it will increase the amplitude of vibrations of the string due to which the sound produced in the guitar will also be of same level.

So here we can say that amplitude and intensity of sound related as

I = kA^2

so on increasing amplitude the intensity will increase and hence it will produce loud sound

A force of 120 N is applied to the front of a sled so as to pull the sled a distance of 165
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 19,800 J</h3>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>workdone = force × distance</h3>

From the question

force = 120 N

distance = 165 m

We have

work done = 120 × 165

We have the final answer as

<h3>19,800 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
