Answer:

v = 4.1 m/s

Explanation:

As per mechanical energy conservation law we can say that initial total gravitational potential energy of the sphere is equal to final kinetic energy of rolling

so we will say

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

now for pure rolling condition we know that

v = R\omega

so we will have

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v^2}{R^2})

mgh = \frac{7}{10}mv^2

now we will have

v^2 = \sqrt{\frac{10}{7}gh}

v^2 = \sqrt{\frac{10}{7}(9.8)(1.2)}

v = 4.1 m/s

kupik [55]

Frequency is measured in units of reciprocal time.
Period is measured in units of time.
Phase is a number without units that represents a fraction of a wave.

None of these is measured in meters, so none of them can be the answer.
It must be either amplitude or wavelength.

Amplitude is a quantity that's measured at one or two points in the same wave.
The question is talking about points on consecutive waves.

<em>Wavelength is</em> the only choice left.  That must be it.

A schoolbus accelerates to 65 mph and enters the freeway. It travels for 2.3 hours at that speed while on the freeway. What's th
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.

Explanation:

The school bus travels on the freeway at constant speed. According to the statement, we need to calculate the distance travelled by the vehicle by means of the following formula:

x = v\cdot t (1)

Where:

x - Traveled distance, in miles.

v - Speed, in miles per hour.

t - Time, in hours.

If we know that v = 65\,\frac{mi}{h} and t = 2.3\,h, then the distance travelled by the school bus is:

x = v\cdot t

x =  \left(65\,\frac{mi}{h} \right)\cdot (2.3\,h)

x = 149.5\,mi

The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.

It takes 500 J of work to compress a spring 10 cm. What is the force constant of the spring? (b) When a 3.0 kg block is pushed a
NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Energy stored in spring = 1/2 k x² = .5 x k 0.1²

500 = 5 x 10⁻³ k ,

k = (500/5) x 10³ = 10⁵ N/m

b )

k = 4.5 x 10¹ = 45 N/m

Stored energy = 1/2 k x² = .5 x 45 x 8² x 10⁻⁴ =1440 x 10⁻⁴ J

This energy gets dissipated by friction .

work done by friction = μ mg d

d is the distance traveled under friction

so 1440 x 10⁻⁴ = μ x 3 x 9.8 x 2

μ = 245 x 10⁻⁴  or 0.00245 which appears to be very small. .

If the 80 ohm resistor fails, will the 50 ohm and 100 ohm resistor continue to operate? Why or why not?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

No, the 50 ohm and 100 ohm resistor will not continue to operate.

Explanation:

A closed circuit is the circuit in which there is no break between the negative and the positive end of the battery.

When in this, combinational circuit the 80 ohm resistor fail then there will not any continue supply of current in the circuit due to the breakage because the electron will flow from negative end of the battery to positive end if their is no breaking in the circuit.

Therefore the 50 ohm and 100 ohm circuit will not continue to operate because of the breaking of the circuit and current will not flow.
