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 capacitor with initial charge q0 is discharged through a resistor. a) In terms of the time constant τ, how long is required fo
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

It would take \tau(\ln 9 - \ln 8) time for the capacitor to discharge from q_0 to \displaystyle \frac{8}{9} \, q_0.

It would take \tau(\ln 9 - \ln 7) time for the capacitor to discharge from q_0 to \displaystyle \frac{7}{9}\, q_0.

Note that \ln 9 = 2\,\ln 3, and that\ln 8 = 3\, \ln 2.

Explanation:

In an RC circuit, a capacitor is connected directly to a resistor. Let the time constant of this circuit is \tau, and the initial charge of the capacitor be q_0. Then at time t, the charge stored in the capacitor would be:

\displaystyle q(t) = q_0 \, e^{-t / \tau}.

<h3>a)</h3>

\displaystyle q(t) = \left(1 - \frac{1}{9}\right) \, q_0 = \frac{8}{9}\, q_0.

Apply the equation \displaystyle q(t) = q_0 \, e^{-t / \tau}:

\displaystyle \frac{8}{9}\, q_0 = q_0 \, e^{-t/\tau}.

The goal is to solve for t in terms of \tau. Rearrange the equation:

\displaystyle e^{-t/\tau} = \frac{8}{9}.

Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

\displaystyle \ln\, e^{-t/\tau} = \ln \frac{8}{9}.

\displaystyle -\frac{t}{\tau} = \ln 8 - \ln 9.

t = - \tau \, \left(\ln 8 - \ln 9\right) = \tau(\ln 9 - \ln 8).

<h3>b)</h3>

\displaystyle q(t) = \left(1 - \frac{1}{9}\right) \, q_0 = \frac{7}{9}\, q_0.

Apply the equation \displaystyle q(t) = q_0 \, e^{-t / \tau}:

\displaystyle \frac{7}{9}\, q_0 = q_0 \, e^{-t/\tau}.

The goal is to solve for t in terms of \tau. Rearrange the equation:

\displaystyle e^{-t/\tau} = \frac{7}{9}.

Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

\displaystyle \ln\, e^{-t/\tau} = \ln \frac{7}{9}.

\displaystyle -\frac{t}{\tau} = \ln 7 - \ln 9.

t = - \tau \, \left(\ln 7 - \ln 9\right) = \tau(\ln 9 - \ln 7).

A gun shoots a bullet with a velocity of 500 m/s. The gun is aimed horizontally and fired from a height of 1.5 m. How far does t
MrMuchimi

The bullet travels a horizontal distance of 276.5 m

The bullet is shot forward with a horizontal velocity u_x. It takes a time <em>t</em> to fall a vertical distance <em>y</em> and at the same time travels a horizontal distance <em>x. </em>

The bullet's horizontal velocity remains constant since no force acts on the bullet in the horizontal direction.

The initial velocity of the bullet has no component in the vertical direction. As it falls through the vertical distance, it is accelerated due to the force of gravity.

Calculate the time taken for the bullet to fall through a vertical distance <em>y </em>using the equation,

y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Substitute 0 m/s for u_y, 9.81 m/s²for <em>g</em> and 1.5 m for <em>y</em>.

y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\ 1.5 m=(0m/s)t+\frac{1}{2} (9.81m/s^2)t^2\\ t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.5m)}{9.81m/s^2} } =0.5530s

The horizontal distance traveled by the bullet is given by,

x=u_xt

Substitute 500 m/s for u_x and 0.5530s for t.

x=u_xt\\ =(500m/s)(0.5530s)\\ =276.5m

The bullet travels a distance of 276.5 m.

An object is originally moving at a constant velocity of 8 m/s in the -x direction. It moves at this constant velocity for 3 sec
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

244.64m

Explanation:

First, we find the distance traveled with constant velocity. It's simply multiplying velocity time the time that elapsed:

x = V*t = -8\frac{m}{s} *3s = -24m

After this, the ball will start traveling with a constant acceleration motion. Due to the fact that the acceleration is the opposite direction to the initial velocity, this motion will have 2 phases:

1. The velocity will start to decrease untill it reaches 0m/s.

2. Then, the velocity will start to increase at the rate of the acceleration.

The distance that the ball travels in the first phase can be found with the following expression:

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2a*d

Where v is the final velocity (0m/s), v_0 is the initial velocity (-8m/s) and a is the acceleration (+9m/s^2). We solve for d:

d = \frac{v^2 - v_0^2}{2a} = \frac{(0m/s)^2 - (-8m/s)^2}{2*7m/s^2}= -4.57m

Now, before finding the distance traveled in the second phase, we need to find the time that took for the velocity to reach 0:

t_1 = \frac{v}{a} = \frac{8m/s}{7m/s^2} = 1.143 s

Then, the time of the second phase will be:

t_2 = 9s - t_1 = 9s - 1.143s = 7.857s

Using this, we using the equations for constant acceleration motion in order to calculate the distance traveled in the second phase:

x = \frac{1}{2}a*t^2 + v_0*t + x_0

V_0, the initial velocity of the second phase, will be 0 as previously mentioned. X_0, the initial position, will be 0, for simplicity:

x = \frac{1}{2}*7\frac{m}{s^2}*t^2 + 0m/s*t + 0m = 216.07m

So, the total distance covered by this object in meters will be the sum of all the distances we found:

x_total = 24m + 4.57m + 216.07m = 244.64m

NEED NOW ALMOST DUE
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Asteroids are objects made of clay and silicate  that orbit the sun but are too small to be considered planets.

Most asteroids revolve around the sun in an orbit between those of Mars and Jupiter.

They form a wide band called the Asteroid belt.

Other asteroids have orbits that cross Earth’s orbit. These asteroids are called  Earth-crossers.

Asteroids probably consist of matter that never agglomerated into a planet when the solar system was forming.

The comet’s core is composed of ice and dust.

Comets heat up and begin to change from a solid to a gas as they approach the sun.

The matter surrounding a comet’s core is vaporized and forms a very bright halo of ice or dust not sure, and an enormous cloud of dust or gasses not sure envelopes the head of the comet.
