Explanation:

The negative value of the packing fraction indicates that the actual isotopic mass is less the mass number.

A bug is 12 cm from the center of a turntable that is rotating with a frequency of 45 rev/min . What minimum coefficient frictio

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction is 0.27.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, start with identifying the forces at play here. First, the bug staying on the rotating turntable will be subject to the centripetal force constantly acting toward the center of the turntable (in absence of which the bug would leave the turntable in a straight line). Second, there is the force of friction due to which the bug can stick to the table. The friction force acts as an intermediary to enable the centripetal acceleration to happen.

Centripetal force is written as

$F_c = m\frac{v^2}{r}$

with v the linear velocity and r the radius of the turntable. We are not given v, but we can write it as

$v = r\omega$

with ω denoting the angular velocity, which we are given. With that, the above becomes:

$F_c = m\frac{v^2}{r}=m\omega^2 r$

Now, the friction force must be at least as much (in magnitude) as Fc. The coefficient (static) of friction μ must be large enough. How large?

$F_r=\mu mg \geq m\omega^2 r = F_c\implies\\\mu \geq \frac{\omega^2 r}{g}$

Let's plug in the numbers. The angular velocity should be in radians per second. We are given rev/min, which can be easily transformed by a factor 2pi/60:

$\frac{1 rev}{1 min}\cdot\frac{\frac{2\pi rad}{rev}}{\frac{60s}{1 min}}=\frac{2\pi}{60}\frac{rad}{s}$

and so 45 rev/min = 4.71 rad/s.

$\mu \geq \frac{\omega^2 r}{g}=\frac{4.71^2\frac{1}{s^2}\cdot 0.12m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}=0.27$

A static coefficient of friction of at least be 0.27 must be present for the bug to continue enjoying the ride on the turntable.

Koala bears can eat only certain kind of Australian eucalyptus leaves.koalas are considered

DaniilM [7]

<em>Hello there, and thank you for asking your question here on brainly.

<u>Answer: Koala bears are considered herbivores, or as in the scientific name, arboreal herbivorous marsupial, marsupial because it also carries it's babies around in a pouch. Koala bears are also native to Australia, which eucalyptus leaves are also native to.

Hope this helped you! ♥</em>

Nuclear energy is more harmful to the environment than a coal-fired power plant because it produces more mercury, air pollution,

krok68 [10]

A nuclear power plant doesn't produce any of those things. It only produces electricity and heat. As long as there are no accidents, and the worn out nuclear fuel is handled properly, the nuclear plant isn't harmful to the environment at all.
