It is the Earth's atmosphere that protects us from radiation and the vacuum of space--specifically UV radiation from the Sun, which can be very dangerous even with the atmosphere's intervention.

You are piloting a helicopter which is rising vertically at a uniform velocity of 14.70 m/s. When you reach 196.00 m, you see Ba

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The ball reaches Barney head in $t = 8 \ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The rise velocity is $v = 14.70 \ m/s$

The height considered is $h = 196 \ m$

The horizontal velocity of the large object is $v_h = 8.50 \ m/s$

Generally from kinematic equation

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

Here s is the distance of the object from Barney head ,

u is the velocity of the object along the vertical axis which is equal but opposite to the velocity of the helicopter

$u = -14.7 m/s$

$196 = -14.7 t + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * t^2$

= $4.9 t^2 - 14.7t - 196 = 0$

Solving the above equation using quadratic formula

The value of t obtained is $t = 8 \ s$

An automobile engine can produce 153 N · m of torque. Calculate the angular acceleration (in rad/s^2) produced if 85.2% of this

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

46.2 rad/s2

Explanation:

Angular acceleration works very similar to linear acceleration, it follows this equation:

$\gamma = \frac{Mt}{J}$

Where:

γ: angular acceleration

Mt: torque

J: moment of inertia of the load from its turning axis

Since we have the torque we just need the moment of inertia. We have to add together the moments of the drive shaft, tires, wheel walls and wheels.

The wheels act like disks. For disks the moment of inertia is:

$J = \frac{1}{2} * m * r^2$

$Jwheel = \frac{1}{2} = 15 * 0.18^2 = 0.243 kg*m^2$

The wheel walls act like annular rings, for these the moment of inertia is:

$J = \frac{1}{2} * m * (re^2 - ri^2)$

$Jwall = \frac{1}{2} * 2 * (0.32^2 - 0.18^2) = 0.07 kg * m^2$

The tread acts like a hoop, as in mass concentrated into a circunference, for these:

$J = m * r^2$

$Jtread = 10 * 0.33^2 = 1.09 kg*m^2$

The axle acts like a rod, which is the same as the disk:

$Jaxle = \frac{1}{2} * 14.1 * 0.02^2 = 0.0028 kg*m^2$

The drive shaft acts like a rod too:

$Jshaft = \frac{1}{2} * 31.7 * 0.032^2 = 0.016 kg*m^2$

SO, the total moment of inertia is:

J = 2*Jwheel + 2*Jwall + 2*Jtread + Jaxle + Jshaft

J = 2*0.243 + 2*0.07 + 2*1.09 + 0.0028 + 0.016 = 2.82 kg*m2

Finally the angular acceleration is:

$\gamma = \frac{0.852 * 153}{2.82} = 46.2 \frac{rad}{s^2}$
