A fairgrounds ride spins its occupants inside a flying saucer-shaped container. if the horizontal circular path the riders follo

w has a 5.00 m radius, at how many revolutions per minute will the riders be subjected to a centripetal acceleration whose magnitude is 1.50 times that due to gravity?

We know that the acceleration due to gravity g is: g = 9.81 m/s^2

So the centripetal acceleration (w) is:

w^2 = 1.5 g / r

w^2 = 1.5 * (9.81 m/s^2) / 5 m

w = 1.716 rad / s

To convert to rad to rev:

w = (1.716 rad / s) * (1 rev / 2π rad) * (60 s/min)

<span>w = 16.4 rev/min </span>

A pot on the stove contains 200 g of water at 20°C. An unknown mass of ice that is originally at −10°C is placed in an identical
Mumz [18]

Answer:

a) The mass of the ice is smaller than the mass of the water

b) The ice reaches first 80°C ,

Explanation:

Since the heat Q that should be provided to ice

Q = sensible heat to equilibrium temperature (as ice) + latent heat + sensible heat until final temperature ( as water)

m ice * c ice * ( T equil -T initial  ) + m ice* L + m ice* c water * ( T final - T equil)

and the heat Q that should be provided to water is

Q= m water * c water * ( T final - T equil )

since the rate of heat addition q = constant and the time t taken to reach the final temperature is the same , then the heat absorbed Q=q*t is the same for both, therefore

m water * c water *  ( T final - T equil ) = m ice* [c ice *( T equil -T initial  ) + L + c water * ( T final - T equil)]

m water/ m ice =  [c ice * ( T equil -T initial  )  + L + c water * ( T final - T equil)]/ [ c water * ( T final - T equil)]

m water/ m ice = [c ice * ( T equil -T initial  )  + L ]/[c water * ( T final - T equil) ] + 1

since  [c ice * ( T equil -T initial  )  + L ]/[c water * ( T final - T equil) ] >0 , then

m water/ m ice > 1

m water > m ice

so the mass of ice is smaller that the mass of water

b) Since the heat Q that should be provided to the ice, starting from 55°C mass would be

Q ice= m ice * c water * ( T final2 - T final1 )

and for the water mass

Q water = m water * c water * ( T final2 - T final1 )

dividing both equations

Q water / Q ice = m water / m ice >1

thus

Q water > Q ice

since the heat addition rate is constant

Q water = q* t water and Q ice=q* t ice

therefore

q* t water > q* t ice

t water >  t ice

so the time that takes to reach 80°C is higher for water , thus the ice mass reaches it first.
