a. 7.0 m/s

First of all, we need to convert the angular speed (1200 rpm) from rpm to rad/s:

\omega = 1200 \frac{rev}{min} \cdot \frac{2\pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=125.6 rad/s

Now we know that the row is located 5.6 cm from the centre of the disc:

r = 5.6 cm = 0.056 m

So we can find the tangential speed of the row as the product between the angular speed and the distance of the row from the centre of the circle:

v=\omega r = (125.6 rad/s)(0.056 m)=7.0 m/s

b.  875 m/s^2

The acceleration of the row of data (centripetal acceleration) is given by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where we have

v = 7.0 m/s is the tangential speed

r = 0.056 m is the distance of the row from the centre of the trajectory

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

a=\frac{(7.0 m/s)^2}{0.056 m}=875 m/s^2

9. According to statistical theory, 68% of your measurements of time should fall within the range of and of therefore about 3 of
Nady [450]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, this is a random error generating because of statistical constraint. We only have finite number of data points. As per this, if we plot our observation we will get a gaussian (inverse bell ) shaped curve with mean equal to central value.

Why do scientist use models to study atoms
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Scientists use models to study atoms, Because atoms are very tiny, and almost impossible to cut open and look inside.. And the center of an atom is the nucleus and that is ever smaller.

Suppose you hear a clap of thunder 14.4 s after seeing the associated lightning strike. The speed of light in air is 3.00 ✕ 108
Marina86 [1]

Answer

Given,

Time to hear the clap = 14.4 s

speed of the light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Speed of sound = 343 m/s

a) distance where lightning strike

    D = s x t

    D = 14.4 x 343

   D = 4939.2 m

b) No, we do not need to know the value of speed of light. Because we need to calculate the distance where we hear the sound. To calculate that we need to know the speed of sound.
