Answer:

Should be same

Explanation:

An experiment is conducted to test a theory. It is expected that the result of the experiment would match with the theoretical result. Also, if the experiment is repeated by the same or another person, it should give the same result. If not, then either there is error in conduction of experiment or in the theory.

When the experiment is replicated, this means the conduction of the second experiment, should be related, or similar, to your first results.

A disk rotates about its central axis starting from rest and accelerates with constant angular acceleration. At one time it is r

atroni [7]

(a) $2.79 rev/s^2$

The angular acceleration can be calculated by using the following equation:

$\omega_f^2 - \omega_i^2 = 2 \alpha \theta$

where:

$\omega_f = 20.0 rev/s$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 11.0 rev/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

$\theta=50.0 rev$ is the number of revolutions made by the disk while accelerating

Solving the equation for $\alpha$ , we find

$\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2d}=\frac{(20.0 rev/s)^2-(11.0 rev/s)^2}{2(50.0 rev)}=2.79 rev/s^2$

(b) 3.23 s

The time needed to complete the 50.0 revolutions can be found by using the equation:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}$

where

$\omega_f = 20.0 rev/s$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 11.0 rev/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\alpha=2.79 rev/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

t is the time

Solving for t, we find

$t=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\alpha}=\frac{20.0 rev/s-11.0 rev/s}{2.79 rev/s^2}=3.23 s$

(c) 3.94 s

Assuming the disk always kept the same acceleration, then the time required to reach the 11.0 rev/s angular speed can be found again by using

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}$

where

$\omega_f = 11.0 rev/s$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 0 rev/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\alpha=2.79 rev/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

t is the time

Solving for t, we find

$t=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\alpha}=\frac{11.0 rev/s-0 rev/s}{2.79 rev/s^2}=3.94 s$

(d) 21.7 revolutions

The number of revolutions made by the disk to reach the 11.0 rev/s angular speed can be found by using

$\omega_f^2 - \omega_i^2 = 2 \alpha \theta$

where:

$\omega_f = 11.0 rev/s$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 0 rev/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\alpha=2.79 rev/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

$\theta=?$ is the number of revolutions made by the disk while accelerating

Solving the equation for $\theta$ , we find

$\theta=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\alpha}=\frac{(11.0 rev/s)^2-0^2}{2(2.79 rev/s^2)}=21.7 rev$

Energy that cannot be used to do useful work is referred to as Select one: a. potential energy. b. entropy. c. kinetic energy. d

topjm [15]

In thermodynamics, entropy (symbolized as S) is a physical magnitude for a thermodynamic system in equilibrium. It measures the number of microstates compatible with the equilibrium macrostate, it can also be said that it is the reason for an increase between internal energy versus an increase in system temperature.

The universe tends to distribute energy evenly; that is, to maximize entropy. Intuitively, entropy is a physical quantity that, by calculation, allows us to determine the part of energy per unit of temperature that cannot be used to produce work.

Therefore the correct answer is B.

In a thunderstorm at 20.0°C, Karen sees a bolt of lightning and hears the thunderclap 3.00 s later. How far from Karen did the l

Minchanka [31]

-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second. So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.

-- For sound, it's a different story. Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s. It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.

-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens. But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.

The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.

If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled

   (340 m/s) x (3 s) = 1,020 meters .
    (about 0.63 of a mile)

(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...

It takes light 0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,

so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)
