The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of 2.0 rev/s in 10.0 s. At th

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

22 revolutions

Explanation:

2 rev/s = 2*(2π rad/rev) = 12.57 rad/s

The angular acceleration when it starting

$\alpha_a = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{12.57}{10} = 1.257 rad/s^2$

The angular acceleration when it stopping:

$\alpha_o = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{-12.57}{12} = -1.05 rad/s^2$

The angular distance it covers when starting from rest:

$\omega^2 - 0^2 = 2\alpha_a\theta_a$

$\theta_a = \frac{\omega^2}{2\alpha_a} = \frac{12.57^2}{2*1.257} = 62.8 rad$

The angular distance it covers when coming to complete stop:

$0 - \omega^2 = 2\alpha_o\theta_o$

$\theta_o = \frac{-\omega^2}{2\alpha_o} = \frac{-12.57^2}{2*(-1.05)} = 75.4 rad$

So the total angular distance it covers within 22 s is 62.8 + 75.4 = 138.23 rad or 138.23 / (2π) = 22 revolutions

9. Calculate the distance (in km) that Charlie runs if he maintains the average

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Correct Question:

Calculate the distance (in km) charlie runs if he maintains an average speed of 8 km/hr for 1 hour

Answer:

The total distance covered by Charlie is 8 km in 1 hour.

Explanation:

The average velocity as given in the question is,

v = 8 km/hr

Total time taken,

$$t=1 hour$

As we know the formula to evaluate the total distance d when the average velocity and time is given;

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

$d=v \times t$

$d=8 \times 1$

$d=8 k m$

Hence, the total distance covered by Charlie in 1 hour will be 8 km.
