A 16-cm-long straight line connects the center of a turntable to its edge. The turntable rotates counter-clockwise at 45 rpm. A

Bond [772]

Answer:

$\mathbf{V_x = 3.25 \ cm/s}$

$\mathbf{V_y = 1.29\ cm/s}$

Explanation:

Given that:

The radius of the table r = 16 cm = 0.16 m

The angular velocity = 45 rpm

= $45 \times \dfrac{1}{60}(2 \pi)$

= 4.71 rad/s

However, the relative velocity of the bug with turntable is:

v = 3.5 cm/s = 0.035 m/s

Thus, the time taken to reach the bug to the end is:

$t = \dfrac{r}{v}$

$t = \dfrac{0.16}{0.035}$

t = 4.571s

So the angle made by the radius r with the horizontal during the time the bug gets to the end is:

$\theta = \omega t$

$\theta = 4.712 \times 4.571$

$\theta = 21.54^0$

Now, the velocity components of the bug with respect to the table is:

$V_x = Vcos \theta$

$V_x = 0.035 \times cos (21.54^0)$

$V_x = 0.0325 \ m/s$

$\text {V_x = 3.25 \ cm/s}$ $\mathbf{V_x = 3.25 \ cm/s}$

Also, for the vertical component of the velocity $V_y$

$V_y = V sin \theta$

$V_y = 0.035 \times sin (21.54^0)$

$V_y = 0.0129\ m/s$

$\mathbf{V_y = 1.29\ cm/s}$

Which type of energy is water held back by a dam?

stepladder [879]

Answer: hydroelectric dams

Explanation: Enormous energy is stored in water held back by hydroelectric dams. The energy is transformed into (a form of kinetic energy) as it falls across the dam. The falling water strikes the blades of a turbine and makes them spin, and the then turns the shaft of a generator.

Could a car drive on a frictionless surface? Explain using the terms action

Julli [10]

Answer:

No, it cannot. The car needs the friction of the surface to drive because the car pushes the surface backwards, and the surfaces makes a reaction force pushing the car forward, and that works because of the friction. In a frictionless surface the tires would rotate in the same place
