Physics
1 answer:
Ludmilka [50]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

8 m west

Explanation:

If we say east is the +x direction, and west is the -x direction, then the displacement is:

Δx = 12 m + (-20 m)

Δx = -8 m

Una prenda de 320gramos de ropa gira en el interior de una lavadora si dicha lavadora tiene 40 cm y gira con una frecuencia de 4
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Período del tambor: T = 0.25\,s, fuerza sobre la prenda: F \approx 80.852\,N, velocidad lineal del tambor: v \approx 10.053\,\frac{m}{s}, velocidad angular del tambor: \omega \approx 25.133\,\frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

La expresión tiene un error por omisión, su forma correcta queda descrita a continuación:

<em>"Una prenda de 320 gramos de ropa gira en el interior de una lavadora si dicha lavadora tiene un radio de 40 centímetros y gira con una frecuencia de 4 hertz. Halle </em><em>a)</em><em> el período, </em><em>b) </em><em>la velocidad angular, </em><em>c) </em><em>la fuerza con la que gira la prenda y </em><em>d) </em><em>la velocidad lineal de la lavadora."</em>

El tambor gira a velocidad angular constante (\omega), en radianes por segundo, lo cual significa que la prenda experimenta una aceleración centrífuga (a), en metros por segundo al cuadrado. En primer lugar, calculamos el período de rotación del tambor (T), en segundos:

T = \frac{1}{f} (1)

Donde f es la frecuencia, en hertz.

(f = 4\,hz)

T = \frac{1}{4\,hz}

T = 0.25\,s

Ahora determinamos la fuerza aplicada sobre la prenda (F), en newtons:

F = m\cdot a (2)

F = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot m \cdot r}{T^{2}} (2b)

Donde:

m - Masa de la prenda, en kilogramos.

r - Radio interior del tambor, en metros.

(m = 0.32\,kg, r = 0.4\,m, T = 0.25\,s)

F = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot (0.32\,kg)\cdot (0.4\,m)}{(0.25\,s)^{2}}

F \approx 80.852\,N

La velocidad lineal de la lavadora es:

v = \frac{2\pi\cdot r}{T} (3)

(r = 0.4\,m, T = 0.25\,s)

v = \frac{2\pi\cdot (0.4\,m)}{0.25\,s}

v \approx 10.053\,\frac{m}{s}

Y la velocidad angular del tambor de la lavadora:

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

(T = 0.25\,s)

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{0.25\,s}

\omega \approx 25.133\,\frac{rad}{s}

You stand on top a building 44 m tall with a water balloon. You drop the water balloon from rest. How fast is the balloon moving
Alecsey [184]
<h2>The balloon is moving when it is halfway down the building at 20.78 m/s.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s  

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

Displacement, s = 0.5 x 44 = 22 m

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2 x 9.81 x 22

v² = 431.64

v = 20.78 m/s

Velocity at 22 m = 20.78 m/s

The balloon is moving when it is halfway down the building at 20.78 m/s.
