In a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so

that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. In one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.672 m. At one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 63.8 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.8 rad/s. (a) Find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) Determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction

Answer:

a) a= 118.15 m/s²

b)θ=20.80°

Explanation:

Given that

r= 0.672 m

Angular acceleration ,α = 63.8 rad/s²

Angular speed ,ω = 12.8 rad/s

Tangential acceleration at

at = α .r

at ==63.8 x 0.672

at = 42.87 m/s²

Centripetal acceleration ac

ac= ω² r

ac =12.8² x 0.672

ac= 110.1 m/s²

So the total acceleration a

a=\sqrt{at^2+ac^2}\ m/s^2

a=\sqrt{42.87^2+110.1^2}\ m/s^2

a= 118.15 m/s²

Angle θ

\tan\theta=\dfrac{at}{ac}

\tan\theta=\dfrac{42.87}{110.1}

θ=20.80°

The force of gravity is much weaker than the strong nuclear force. But the strong nuclear force only acts over short distances, such as within the nuclues. The gravitational force can act over infinite distance.

Strontium 3890Sr has a half-life of 28.5 yr. It is chemically similar to calcium, enters the body through the food chain, and co
patriot [66]

Answer:

Thus the time taken is calculated as 387.69 years

Solution:

As per the question:

Half life of ^{3890}Sr\, t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 28.5 yrs

Now,

To calculate the time, t in which the 99.99% of the release in the reactor:

By using the formula:

\frac{N}{N_{o}} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

where

N = No. of nuclei left after time t

N_{o} = No. of nuclei initially started with

\frac{N}{N_{o}} = 1\times 10^{- 4}

(Since, 100% - 99.99% = 0.01%)

Thus

1\times 10^{- 4} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{28.5}}}

Taking log on both the sides:

- 4 = \frac{t}{28.5}log\frac{1}{2}

t = \frac{-4\times 28.5}{log\frac{1}{2}}

t = 387.69 yrs
