In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their b

acks against the wall. the cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! if all goes well, the passengers will "stick" to the wall and not slide. clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70. what is the minimum rotational frequency, in rpm, for which the ride is safe?

<span>The friction force ( µ . N ) must be enough to counter the gravity force ( m . g ) The Normal force from the rotating wall is the centripetal force = mv^2 / r so with the lowest coefficient of friction ( 0.4 ) 0.4 . v^2 / 2.5 = g v^2 = 2.5 . 9.8 / 0.4 v = 7.83 m/s T = 5π / 7.83 = 2.007 s f = 0.5 Hz = 30 rpm</span>

A tuned mass damper for a skyscraper consists of a mass–spring system with spring constant 0.288 M/m. What should be its mass if
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

m = 0.255kg

Explanation:

from the formular of a mass - spring system

T = 2π√m/k

making m as the subject of formular

m = T² k/4π²

T =5.91s

k = 0.288 N/m

m = 10.059/39.489

m = 0.255kg

If vector y = 21cm and vector Z=75 cm, what is vector x ?
pychu [463]
That depends on how 'x' is related to 'y' and 'z' ... like the angles between all of them, and whether they're all on the same planet. A drawing would sure help.

______ is the maximum distance the particles of the medium move from their resting positions when a wave passes through.
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Amplitude

Explanation:

A wave is a periodic oscillation that carries energy, but not matter, through space or through a medium.

A wave is characterized by the fact that the particles in the medium oscillate around a fixed point, but there is no overall movement of particles in the direction of the wave (this means, only energy is transferred, while matter is not transferred).

A wave is also characterized by several properties, namely:

Amplitude: it is the maximum distance the particles of the medium move from their resting positions

Frequency: the number of oscillations of a certain particle per second

Wavelenght: the distance between two points of the wave that have same shape

Period: the time it takes for one particle of the wave to complete one oscillation

So, the answer is

Amplitude

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

16Newton sec

Explanation:

Ft = m( v + u)

= 0.4( 22 + 18)

= 0.4 x 40

= 16newton sec

Suppose a car's standard tires are replaced with tires 1.30 times larger in diameter.(i) Will the car's speedometer reading be (
Nezavi [6.7K]

The answer is 1.30 times too low.

<h3>What is a speedometer reading?</h3>
  • According to the law, speedometers can never understate a vehicle's speed while never exceeding 110% of the real speed + 6.25 mph. Therefore, if you're traveling at 40 mph, your speedometer may display up to 50.25 mph, but it will never show a speed below 40 mph.
  • While the speedometer displays how fast your car is moving, the odometer displays how far it has traveled. According to Tetzlaff, the speedometer's accuracy in most cars, including Volkswagens, is typically within a few percentage points of actual speed.
  • A car's speedometer is a tool that displays the vehicle's speed. An odometer is yet another accessory connected to a speedometer. The car's odometer displays the distance driven. The speedometer, as we all know, displays the pace of every single moment.
  • Federal law prohibits speedometers from having an inaccuracy of more than 5% (usually stated as plus/minus 2.5% relative to the real speed), according to Dan Edmunds, an automotive engineer and director of vehicle testing at Edmunds.com.

The answer is 1.30 times too low.
