The ostrich, the fastest two-legged land animal, has been clocked at a speed of 19.4m/s when being pursued by a predator. An ost

rich got loose from a ranch in west Texas and is being chased by a coyote (also able to run just as fast) through a 35mph school zone being clocked by the local sheriff. Could the ostrich and coyote get speeding tickets? Assume it is on a school day during school zone hours. *

Both of them are in big trouble !  I personally would write up each one of them for => no current valid driver's license, => no current vehicle insurance, => no current vehicle emission inspection sticker, => no visible current vehicle, => failure to signal turns, and => speeding in a school zone, since 19.4 m/s is equivalent to 43.4 mph.

What is the maximum value of the electric field in an electromagnetic wave whose average intensity is 4.50 w/m2 ?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Average intensity of electromagnetic wave is given by

I= (speed of light*permittivity*sq. electric field)/2

Speed of light = 3x10^8 m/s
Permittivity = 8.85x10^-12

Therefore,
Electric field = sqrt (2I/ (speed of light xpermittivity)) = sqrt ((2*4.50)/(3*10^8*8.85*10^-12)) = 58.22 V/m

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 3.20 s of constant angu-lar acceleration, it turns at a rate of 2.51 3 104 re v/m i n.
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

ΔTita = 4205.6 rad

Explanation:

w_{i} means initial angular velocity, which is 0 rev/min

w_{f} means final angular velocity, which is 2.513*10^{4}rev/min

t means time t= 3.20 s

one revolution is equivalent to 2πrad so the final angular velocity is:

w_{f} = (2π/60) *2.513*10^{4} rad/s

w_{f}= 2628.5 rad/s

so the angular acceleration, α will be:

α = 2628.5 rad/s / 3.20 s

a = 821.40 rad/s^{2}

so the rotational motion about a fixed axis is:

w^{2} _{f} =w^{2} _{i} + 2αΔTita    where ΔTita is the angle in radians

so now find the ΔTita the subject of the formula

ΔTita = \frac{w^{2} _{f}-w^{2} _{i}  }{2a}

ΔTita = ((2628.5)^{2} - (0 rev/min)^{2}) / 2* 821.40

ΔTita = 4205.6 rad

I need help pleaseee
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

8) 709.8875 J

9) The object is at 7.24375 m from the ground

10) Kinetic energy increases as the object falls.

Explanation:

We use the expression for the displacement h(t) as a function of time of an object experiencing free fall:

h(t) = hi - (g/2) t^2

hi being the initial position of the object (10m) above ground, g the acceleration of gravity (9.8 m/s^2), and t the time (in our case 0.75 seconds):

h(0.75) = 10 - 4/9 (0.75)^2 = 7.24375 m

This is the position of the 10 kg object after 0.75 seconds (answer for part 9)

Knowing this position we can calculate the potential energy of the object when it is at this height, using the formula:

U = m g h = 10kg * 9.8 (m/s^2) * 7.24375 m = 709.8875 J (answer for part 8)

Part 10)

the kinetic energy of the object increases as it gets closer to ground, since its velocity is increasing in magnitude because is being accelerated in its motion downwards.
