A bug is on the rim of a disk of diameter 9 in that moves from rest to an angular speed of 76 rev/min in 6.5 s. what is the tang

Let's convert the final angular speed of the disk into rad/s:
\omega_f = 76  \frac{rev}{min} \cdot  \frac{2 \pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=7.96 rad/s
while the initial angular speed is zero.

So, the angular acceleration of the disk is
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t} = \frac{7.96 rad/s}{6.5 s}=1.22 rad/s^2

The radius of the disk is half the diameter: r= d/2 = 9 m/2 =4.5 m

And so, the tangential acceleration is the angular acceleration times the radius:
a_t = \alpha r =(1.22 rad/s^2)(4.5 m)=5.49 m/s^2

Why is friction like applied force but different from gravity?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Friction is when a force is applied or done by weight dragging onto something.

Explanation:

Gravity is when an object is getting pulled toward the center of what is attracting it. And applied force is when someone/sommething is applying force.

You are holding a finishing sander with your right hand. THe sander has a flywheel which spins counterclockwise as seen from beh
ryzh [129]

Answer:

c. turn downward

Explanation:

From the information given:

To find the tendency of the sander;

We need to apply the right-hand rule torque; whereby we consider the direction of the flywheel, the direction at which the torque is acting, and the movement of the sander toward the right.

Since the flywheel of the sander is in counterclockwise movement, hence the torque direction will be outward placing on the wall. However, provided that the movement of the sander is toward the right, then there exists an opposite force that turns downward which showcases the tendency in the sander is downward.

Comparing sound waves with different frequencies and wavelengths traveling through air,
aleksklad [387]

Explanation:

The speed of sound wave only depends on the property of the medium like density and the bulk modulus of the medium particle. The speed of sound also depends on the temperature of the medium.

On comparing sound waves with different frequencies and wavelengths traveling through air, the speed of the wave doesn’t depend on the frequency or the wavelength. Hence, the correct option is (1).

The relationship between frequency and period is...
Kazeer [188]

\\

Frequency, f, is how many cycles of an oscillation occur per second and is measured in cycles per second or hertz (Hz). The period of a wave, T, is the amount of time it takes a wave to vibrate one full cycle. These two terms are inversely proportional to each other: f = 1/T and T = 1/f.
