Why do some scientists not use controlled experiments?
Leviafan [203]
Observational studies are a prime example. Observational data is more reflective of the real environments that scientists make their inferences to than controlled experiments. The disadvantage of observational studies is that the variability is far greater. <span />

A fan blade, initially at rest, rotates with a constant acceleration of 0.029 rad/s2. What is the time interval required for it
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The time interval is  t = 21.30 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The constant acceleration is \alpha  = 0.029 \ rad / s^2

    The displacement is  \theta  =  6.58 \ rad

     

According to the second equation of motion we have that

    \theta  =  w_i* t  +  \frac{1}{2} *  \alpha  t^2

given that the blade started from rest

     w_i which is the initial angular velocity is 0

 So  

       \theta  = 0 +  \frac{1}{2} *  \alpha  t^2

 =>  t = \sqrt{ \frac{2 * \theta }{\alpha } }

substituting values  

=>    t = \sqrt{ \frac{2 * 6.58 }{0.029 } }

=>    t = 21.30 \ s
