A disc-shaped grindstone with mass 50 kg and diameter 0.52m rotates on frictionless bearings at 850 rev/min. An ax is pushed aga

inst the rim (to sharpen it) with a normal force of 160 N. The grindstone subsequently comes to rest in 7.5 seconds. What is the co-efficient of friction between ax and stone?

Answer:

0.48

Explanation:

m = mass of disc shaped grindstone = 50 kg

d = diameter of the grindstone = 0.52 m

r = radius of the grindstone = (0.5) d = (0.5) (0.52) = 0.26 m

w₀ = initial angular speed = 850 rev/min = 850 (0.10472) rad/s = 88.97 rad/s

t = time taken to stop = 7.5 sec

w = final angular speed  0 rad/s

Using the equation

w = w₀ + α t

0 = 88.97 + α (7.5)

α = - 11.86 rad/s²

F = normal force on the disc by the ax = 160 N

μ = Coefficient of friction

f = frictional force

frictional force is given as

f = μ F

f = 160 μ

Moment of inertia of grindstone is given as

I = (0.5) m r² = (0.5) (50) (0.26)² = 1.69 kgm²

Torque equation is given as

r f = I |α|

(0.26) (160 μ) = (1.69) (11.86)

μ = 0.48

At what point in a projectile’s trajectory does it experience a minimum velocity?
ad-work [718]
Minimum velocity occurs at the top of the trajectory, where
the projectile stops rising and starts falling.  For a split second,
it has no vertical speed at all, and its velocity is only the horizontal
speed (which doesn't change).

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

Earl travels 50m east in 10 minutes and later 100m north in 15 minutes. What is her total displacement?all travels 50 m East in
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

111.8 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the change in position of an object. The SI unit of displacement is the meters. The displacement of an object can be calculated by determining the shortest distance from the starting point to the end point.

Since earl travels 50 m east and then 100 m north, let x represent the displacement. Therefore x is the shortest distance from starting to end. Earl movement forms a right angled triangle with x as the hypotenuse. Hence:

x² = 50²  + 100²

x² = 12500

x = 111.8 m
