Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves. The law of reflection says that for specular reflection the angle at which the wave is incident on the surface equals the angle at which it is reflected. Mirrors exhibit specular reflection.

The angular speed of an automobile engine is increased at a constant rate from 1120 rev/min to 2560 rev/min in 13.8 s. (a) What
Neko [114]

Complete Question

The angular speed of an automobile engine is increased at a constant rate from 1120 rev/min to 2560 rev/min in 13.8 s.

(a) What is its angular acceleration in revolutions per minute-squared

(b) How many revolutions does the engine make during this 20 s interval?

rev

Answer:

a

 \alpha = 6261 \  rev/minutes^2

b

 \theta  = 613 \ revolutions

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial  angular speed is w_i =  1120 \ rev/minutes

    The angular speed after t = 13.8 s = \frac{13.8}{60 }  = 0.23 \ minutes  is w_f = 2560 \ rev/minutes

    The time for revolution considered is t_r =  20 \ s  =  \frac{20}{60} = 0.333 \  minutes  

 Generally the angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

         \alpha = \frac{w_f - w_i }{t}

=>      \alpha = \frac{2560  - 1120 }{0.23}  

=>      \alpha = 6261 \  rev/minutes^2

Generally the number of revolution made is t_r =  20 \ s  =  \frac{20}{60} = 0.333 \  minutes  is mathematically represented as

           \theta  =  \frac{1}{2}  * (w_i + w_f)*  t

=>      \theta  =  \frac{1}{2}  * (1120+ 2560 )*  0.333

=>      \theta  = 613 \ revolutions

A 5.50 kg sled is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal road. The sled is pulled a distance of 3.20 m by a force of 25.
kiruha [24]

(a) 69.3 J

The work done by the applied force is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where:

F = 25.0 N is the magnitude of the applied force

d = 3.20 m is the displacement of the sled

\theta=30^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement of the sled

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

W=(25.0 N)(3.20 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=69.3 J

(b) 0

The problem says that the surface is frictionless: this means that no friction is acting on the sled, therefore the energy dissipated by friction must be zero.

(c) 69.3 J

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by the applied force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the sled:

\Delta K = W

where

\Delta K is the change in kinetic energy

W is the work done

Since we already calculated W in part (a):

W = 69.3 J

We therefore know that the change in kinetic energy of the sled is equal to this value:

\Delta K=69.3 J

(d) 4.9 m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the sled can be rewritten as:

\Delta K=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2 (1)

where

Kf is the final kinetic energy

Ki is the initial kinetic energy

m = 5.50 kg is the mass of the sled

u = 0 is the initial speed of the sled

v = ? is the final speed of the sled

We can calculate the variation of kinetic energy of the sled, \Delta K, after it has travelled for d=3 m. Using the work-energy theorem again, we find

\Delta K= W = Fd cos \theta =(25.0 N)(3.0 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=65.0 J

And substituting into (1) and re-arrangin the equation, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(65.0 J)}{5.50 kg}}=4.9 m/s

A steel pot has a bottom with a cross sectional area of .1m2 and has a thickness of 1cm. The pot is filled with boiling water an
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

840000 J/min

Explanation:

Area = A = 0.1 m²

Bottom of pot temperature = 200 °C

Thermal conductivity = k = 14 J/sm°C

Thickness = L = 1 cm = 0.01 m

Temperature of boiling water = 100 °C

From the law of heat conduction

Q = kAΔT/L

⇒ Q = 14×0.1×(200-100)/0.01

⇒ Q = 14000 J/s

Converting to J/minute

Q = 14000×60 = 840000 J/min

∴ Heat being conducted through the pot is 840000 J/min
