If there's any point in a circuit where the current has a choice
of which branch to take, then you have a <em>parallel circuit</em>.

A uniform solid disk with a mass of 24.3 kg and a radius of 0.364 m is free to rotate about a frictionless axle. Forces of 90.0
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

a. -12.7 Nm

b. -7.9 rad/s^2

Explanation:

I have attached an illustration of a solid disk with the respective forces applied, as stated in this question.

Forces applied to the solid disk include:

F_1 = 90.0N\\F_2 = 125N

Other parameters given include:

Mass of solid disk, M = 24.3kg

and radius of solid disk, r = 0.364m

a.) The formula for determining torque (T), is T = r * F

Hence the net torque produced by the two forces is given as a summation of both forces:

T = T_{125} + T_{90}\\= -r(125)sin90 + r(90)sin90\\= 0.364(-125 + 90)\\= -12.7 Nm

b.)  The angular acceleration of the disk can be found thus:

using the formula for the Moment of Inertia of a solid disk;

I_{disk} = {\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2

where M = Mass of solid disk

and r = radius of solid disk

We then relate the torque and angular acceleration (\alpha) with the formula:

T = I\alpha \\-12.7 = ({\frac{1}{2}}Mr^2)\alpha \\\alpha  = -{\frac{12.7}{1.61}} = -7.9 rad/s^2

How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?
slega [8]

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

Answer:

C:

Explanation:

either C or A but A seems unlikely after multiple attempts. Although the question doesn't make it clear whether the balance is electric either way it could be wrong in someway and seems to be the most likely.

Q1. Helmut rides 5km in 2h on his bike. His speed was *
baherus [9]

Answer:

Speed of bike = 2.5 km/h

Distance travel = 1,000 km (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Distance cover by Helmut = 5 km

Time taken = 2 hour

Find:

Speed of bike

Computation:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed of bike = 5 / 2

Speed of bike = 2.5 km/h

Given:

Speed of plane = 250 km/h

time taken = 3 hr 58 min = 3.967 hr

Find:

Distance travel

Computation:

Distance = Speed x time

Distance travel = 250 x 3.967

Distance travel = 991.669

Distance travel = 1,000 km (Approx.)
