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

Helium–neon laser light (λ = 632.8 nm) is sent through a 0.350-mm-wide single slit. What is the width of the central maximum on
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The width of the central bright fringe is 7.24 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 632.8 nm

Width d= 0.350 mm

Distance between screen and slit D= 2.00 m

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of distance

y_{m}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

Put the value into the formula

y_{m}=\dfrac{632.8\times10^{-9}\times2.00}{0.350\times10^{-3}}

y_{m}=3.62\ mm

We need to calculate the width of the central bright fringe

Using formula of width

width = 2\times|y_{m}|

Put the value into the formula

width=2\times3.62

width = 7.24\ mm

Hence, The width of the central bright fringe is 7.24 mm.

How does the mass of an object affect the outcome when the forces acting upon it are unbalanced? I need six sentences...
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
<h3><u>Mass of an object affect the outcome of unbalanced forces:</u></h3>

Newton’s second law of motion deals with the result of motion of an object when unbalanced forces are applied. The second law of motion establish the relationship between mass, acceleration and unbalanced forces of the object. The below points explains the relation between unbalanced forces acting on mass of the object. The acceleration of object would be higher when the unbalanced force is higher.  

The equation for the unbalanced force is,

Unbalanced\ force = Mass \times Acceleration.

For Example: Two masses of 500 kg and 1 kg is applied with same unbalanced forces. The change in motion of 500 kg would be very much less than the change in motion of 1 kg.

A pendulum with a length of 2 m has a period of 2.8 s. What is the period of a pendulum with a length of 8 m
Ugo [173]

Answer:

P = 2 pi (L / g)^1/2

P2 / P1 = (8 / 2)^1/2 = 2

The period would be twice as long or 5.6 sec.
