Does a physicist studies cells and life cycles?

Hey there!

No, that would be a biologist. Biologists study biology, or life. They're focused on life cycles, cells, evolution, and so much more.

Physicists focus on physics. They learn about forces, motion, and the study of the universal forces like gravity, momentum, and speed. Just like mathematics, they study patterns and look for new discoveries to be found in the fields of science, physics, and even mathematics.

Hope this helps!

You stand on a frictional platform that is rotating at 1.8 rev/s. Your arms are outstretched, and you hold a heavy weight in eac

dusya [7]

Answer:

20.62361 rad/s

489.81804 J

Explanation:

$I_i$ = Initial moment of inertia = 9.3 kgm²

$I_f$ = Final moment of inertia = 5.1 kgm²

$\omega_i$ = Initial angular speed = 1.8 rev/s

$\omega_f$ = Final angular speed

As the angular momentum of the system is conserved

$I_i\omega_i=I_f\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{I_i\omega_i}{I_f}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{9.3\times 1.8}{5.1}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=3.28235\ rev/s=3.28235\times 2\pi=20.62361\ rad/s$

The resulting angular speed of the platform is 20.62361 rad/s

Change in kinetic energy is given by

$\Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}(I_f\omega_f^2-I_i\omega_i^2)\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}(5.1\times (20.62361)^2-9.3\times (1.8\times 2\pi)^2)\\\Rightarrow \Delta K=489.81804\ J$

The change in kinetic energy of the system is 489.81804 J

As the work was done to move the weight in there was an increase in kinetic energy

4. A family leaves from New York City and is flying to Los Angles which is 2800mi away. It takes

Blizzard [7]

The average speed of the whole travel is equal to <u>400 mph</u>.

Why?

From the statement, we know that whole travel is divided into three parts. For the first part (traveling from New York to Chicago), we have that it was 3.25 hours and the covered distance was half of the total distance (1400mi). For the second part, we have that it was 1 hour (layover time), and the covered no distance. For the third part (traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles), we have that it was 2.75 hours, and it took the other half of the total distance (1400mi).

We can calculate the average speed of the whol travel using the following formula:

$AverageSpeed=\frac{distance_{1}+distance_{2}+distance_{3}}{time_{1}+time{2}+time_{3}}$

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

$AverageSpeed=\frac{1400mi+0mi+1400mi}{3.25h+1h+2.75h}$

$AverageSpeed=\frac{2800mi}{7h}=400mph$

Hence, we have the average speed of the whole travel is equal to 400 mph.

Have a nice day!

In 1996, astronomers discovered an icy object beyond pluto that was given the designation 1996 tl 66. it has a semimajor axis of

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer : 2446 years.

Explanation :

Length of semi major axis is, $a=84\ au= 1.496\times 10^{11}\ m$

According to Kepler's third law, square of time period of an orbit is directly proportional to the cube of the semi major axis.

i.e $T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3$

where G is gravitational constant

M is mass of sun, $M=1.98\times 10^{30}\ Kg$

So, $T^2=\dfrac{4\times (3.14)^2}{6.6\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg\times 1.98\times 10^{30}\Kg}$

$T^2=3\times 10^{-19}\times(84\times 1.496\times 10^{11})^3$

$T^2=3\times 10^{-19}\times 1984415.6\times 10^{33}$

$T^2=59532469.8\times 10^{14}\ s$

$T=7715.7\times 10^7\ s$

since, $1\ sec=3.17\times 10^{-8}\ years$

So, orbital period is approximately 2446 years.

Well it is definitely answer B because when light is on for a long time it heats up a lot.the thermometer obviously went up which means the light bulb had more energy and was hotter than the start of it

A person is riding a bicycle, and its wheels have an angular velocity of 10.7 rad/s. Then, the brakes are applied and the bike i

Scilla [17]

Answer:

(a) t = 22.9 s

(b) α= - 0.467 rad/s²

Explanation:

The uniformly accelerated circular movement, is a circular path movement in which the angular acceleration is constant.

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf ²= ω₀² + 2*α*θ Formula (1)

ωf= ω₀ + α*t Formula (2)

Where:

θ : angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

α : angular acceleration (rad/s²)

t : time interval (s)

ω₀ : initial angular speed ( rad/s)

ωf : final angular speed ( rad/s)

Data

θ = 19.5 revolutions : angular displacement of each wheel or angle that the wheel has rotated in a given time interval

ω₀= 10.7 rad/s : initial angular speed of the Wheel ( rad/s)

ωf = 0 : final angular speed of the Whee( rad/s)

Calculating of the angular acceleration (α )

We replace data in the fómula (1),considering that 1 revolution is equal to 2π radians :

ωf ²= ω₀² + 2*α*θ

(0 )²= (10.7)² + 2*α*(19.5*2*π )

0= 114.49 + (245.04)*α

-114.49 = (245.04)*α

α= (-114.49) /(245.04)

α= -114.49 /(245.04)

α= -0.467 rad/s²

Time does it take for the bike to come to rest

We replace data in the formula (2)

ωf = ω₀ + α*t

0 = 10.7 + -0.467*t

-10.7 = - 0.467*t we multiply by (-1) both sides of the equation :

10.7 = 0.467*t

t = 10.7 / 0.467

t = 22.9 s
