An electric fan is turned off, and its angular velocity decreases uniformly from 720 rev/min to 200 rev/min in a time interval o

f length 3.25
a.find the angular acceleration in rev/s
b.find the number of revolutions made by the motor in the time interval of length 3.25
c.how many more seconds are required for the fan to come to rest if the angular acceleration remains constant at the value calculated in part a?

(a) first, we need to convert the initial and final angular speed into rev/s. Keeping in mind that 1 min=60 s, we should divide the speeds by 60:
\omega_i = 720 rev/min = 12.0 rev/s
\omega_f = 200 rev/min = 3.3 rev/s

So, the angular acceleration is
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\Delta t} = \frac{3.3 rev/s - 12.0 rev/s}{3.25 s}=-2.68 rev/s^2
where the negative sign means it is a deceleration.

(b) The angle covered by the fan (in revolutions) is given by the following equation
\theta(t) = \omega_i t +  \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2
where t is the time and \alpha the angular acceleration we find at point (a). Substituting numbers, we get
\theta (3.25 s)=(12.0 rev/s)(3.25 s)+ \frac{1}{2} (-2.68 rev/s^2)(3.25 s)^2=24.85 rev

(c) In order for the fan to come to rest, its final angular speed must go to zero:
\omega(t)=0

The expression for the angular speed as a function of time is 
\omega(t) = \omega _i + \alpha t
By requiring this is equal to zero, we find the time t after which the fan comes to rest:
\omega_i + \alpha t = 0
t=- \frac{\omega_i}{\alpha}= -\frac{12.0 rev/s}{-2.68 rev/s^2} =4.48 s

Part a consider a bird that flies at an average speed of 10.7 m/s and releases energy from its body fat reserves at an average r
Alex787 [66]
<span>436 km The conversion factor between kilocalorie/hour and watts is 1.163 (1 kcal/hr = 1.163 watt). So let's convert the energy consumption of the bird from watts to kcal/hr 3.7 w / 1.163 w hr/kcal = 3.18 kcal /hr 1 gram of fat has 9 kcal, so the total number of kcals consumed will be 4 * 9 = 36. So the bird can fly for 36/3.18 = 11.32 hours The distance traveled will be 11.32 h * 3600 s/h * 10.7 m/s / 1000 m/km = 436 km</span>

0.85 x 45 x 128 = 4896

Change in energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature

What is the weight of a 5.00 kg object on Earth? Assume g=9.81 m/s^2.
Softa [21]

<em>weight = (mass) x (gravity)</em>

Weight = (5.00 kg) x (9.81 m/s²)

weight = (5.00 x 9.81) (kg-m/s²)

<em>Weight = 49.05 Newton</em>
