A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.7 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid

e and brings it up to its proper turning rate of one complete rotation every 5.5 s. What is the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round that will allow the cat to stay in place, without sliding?

Answer:

0.76

Explanation:

we are given:

radius (r) =5.7 m

speed (s) = 1 revolution in 5.5 seconds

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

coefficient of friction (Uk) = ?

 we can get the minimum coefficient of friction from the equation below

centrifugal force = frictional force

m x r x ω^{2} = Uk x m x g

r x ω^{2} = Uk x g

Uk = \frac{ r x ω^{2} }{g}

where ω (angular velocity) = \frac{2π}{time}

= \frac{2π }{5.5} = 1.14

Uk = \frac{ 5.7 x 1.14^{2} }{9.8} = 0.76

You are trying to hear your friend give directions to new store in town. But from your distance (1 point) of 15 m you only hear
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

Intensity of sound = 20 dB

distance = 15 m

intensity of sound is increased to = 50 dB

distance between the sound level = ?

Using relation

L_2 = L_1 - |20(log \dfrac{r_2}{r_1})|

L₁ = 20 dB        L₂ = 50 dB         r₁ = 15 m      r₂ = ?

log (\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}) = \dfrac{L_1 -L_2}{20}

\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}= 10^{\dfrac{|L_1 -L_2|}{20}}

r_2 =r_1 10^{\dfrac{|L_1 -L_2|}{20}}

r_2 =15 \times 10^{\dfrac{|20-50|}{20}}

r_2 =15 \times 10^{-1.5}

r₂ = 0.47 m

r₂ = 47 cm

hence, the correct answer is option D

The position of an object in simple harmonic motion is defined by the function y = (0.50 m) sin (πt/2). Determine the maximum sp
Gnoma [55]

The maximum speed of the object under simple harmonic motion is 0.786 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • Position of the particle, y = 0.5m sin(πt/2)

<h3>Wave equation for simple harmonic motion;</h3>

y = A sin(ωt + Ф)

where;

  • A is the amplitude = 0.5 m
  • ω is the angular speed = π/2

The maximum speed of the object is calculated as follows;

V_{max} = A \omega\\\\V_{max} = 0.5 \times \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{\pi}{4} \ m/s  = 0.786 \ m/s

Thus, the maximum speed of the object under simple harmonic motion is 0.786 m/s.
