A sock stuck to the inside of the clothes dryer spins around the drum once every 2.0 s at a distance of 0.50 m from the center o

f the drum. A) What is the sock's linear speed? B) If the drum were twice as wide but continued to turn with the same frequency, would the linear speed of a sock stuck to the inside be faster than, slower than, or the same speed as your answer to part a?

a) 1.57 m/s

The sock spins once every 2.0 seconds, so its period is

T = 2.0 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the sock is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{2.0}=3.14 rad/s

The linear speed of the sock is given by

v=\omega r

where

\omega is the angular velocity

r = 0.50 m is the radius of the circular path of the sock

Substituting, we find:

v=(3.14)(0.50)=1.57 m/s

B) Faster

In this case, the drum is twice as wide, so the new radius of the circular path of the sock is twice the previous one:

r' = 2r = 1.00 m

At the same time, the drum spins at the same frequency as before, therefore the angular frequency as not changed:

\omega' = \omega = 3.14 rad/s

Therefore, the new linear speed would be:

v'=\omega' r' = \omega (2r)

And substituting,

v'=(3.14)(1.00)=3.14 rad/s = 2v

So, we see that the linear speed has doubled.

A small object with a 5.0-mC charge is accelerating horizontally on a friction-free surface at 0.0050 m/s2 due only to an electr
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

0.002 N/C

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Charge of object, q = 5 mC = 5 * 10^{-3} C

Acceleration of object, a = 0.005 m/s^2

Mass of object, m = 2.0 g

The Electric field exerts a particular force on the object, causing it to accelerate (Electrostatic force).

We know that Electrostatic force, F, is given in terms of Electric field, E, as:

F = qE

This means that the object exerts a force of -qE on the Electric force (Action with equal and opposite reaction).

The object also has a force, F, due to its acceleration a. This force is the product of its mass and acceleration. Mathematically:

F = ma

Equating the two forces of the object, we get:

-qE = ma

=> E = \frac{-ma}{q}

Solving for E, we have:

E = \frac{-2 * 10^{-3} * 0.005}{5 * 10^{-3}} \\\\\\E = -0.002 N/C

The magnitude will be:

|E| = |-0.002| N/C = 0.002 N/C

The electric field has a magnitude of 0.002 N/C.

To demonstrate the tremendous acceleration of a top fuel drag racer, you attempt to run your car into the back of a dragster tha
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the dragster  attains the speed equal to that of the car which is moving with constant velocity of v₀ , before the two close in contact with each othe , there will not be collision .

So the dragster starting from rest , must attain the velocity v₀ in the maximum time given that is tmax .

v = u + a t

v₀ = 0 + a tmax

tmax = v₀ / a

The value of tmax is v₀ / a .
