Explain Newton's third law in your own words.

Kazeer [188]

Newton's third law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

What this is pretty much saying is that for every action, there is a consequence. One force connects and triggers another.

Nataliya [291]

The jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 gram.

<h3>What is Weber's law?</h3>

It should be noted that Weber's law asserts that the nature of any given stimulus will always affect how change is perceived. In other words, the size, weight, importance, etc. of the prior situation and the significance of the change both influence whether a change will be observed.

In this case, it was given that the jnd for a 10-gram weight was 1 gram, therefore, the jnd for 100 gram will be;

= 100 / 10

= 10 gram

Therefore, jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 grams.

Describe a life cycle of a star

vagabundo [1.1K]

Planetary Nebula are the outer layers of a star that are lost when the star changes from a red giant to a white dwarf. A star is a luminous globe of gas producing its own heat and light by nuclear reactions (nuclear fusion). They are born from nebulae and consist mostly of hydrogen and helium gas. Is this what you needed?

At t=0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 25.0 rad/s. It has a constant angular acceleration of 26.0 rad/s2 until a cir

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a) The total angle of the grinding wheel is 569.88 radians, b) The grinding wheel stop at t = 12.354 seconds, c) The deceleration experimented by the grinding wheel was 8.780 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Since the grinding wheel accelerates and decelerates at constant rate, motion can be represented by the following kinematic equations:

$\theta = \theta_{o} + \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}$

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha \cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

Where:

$\theta_{o}$ , $\theta$ - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

$\omega_{o}$ , $\omega$ - Initial and final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

Likewise, the grinding wheel experiments two different regimes:

1) The grinding wheel accelerates during 2.40 seconds.

2) The grinding wheel decelerates until rest is reached.

a) The change in angular position during the Acceleration Stage can be obtained of the following expression:

$\theta - \theta_{o} = \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}$

If $\omega_{o} = 25\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $t = 2.40\,s$ and $\alpha = 26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , then:

$\theta-\theta_{o} = \left(25\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s)^{2}$

$\theta-\theta_{o} = 134.88\,rad$

The final angular angular speed can be found by the equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

If $\omega_{o} = 25\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $t = 2.40\,s$ and $\alpha = 26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , then:

$\omega = 25\,\frac{rad}{s} + \left(26\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2.40\,s)$

$\omega = 87.4\,\frac{rad}{s}$

The total angle that grinding wheel did from t = 0 s and the time it stopped is:

$\Delta \theta = 134.88\,rad + 435\,rad$

$\Delta \theta = 569.88\,rad$

The total angle of the grinding wheel is 569.88 radians.

b) Before finding the instant when the grinding wheel stops, it is needed to find the value of angular deceleration, which can be determined from the following kinematic expression:

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha \cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

The angular acceleration is now cleared:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}$
