A team of bicyclists are on bikes that require 512 J of work to ride. It takes 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears. Wha

Alja [10]

Answer:

84.4 %

Explanation:

Mechanical efficiency = output work/input work × 100 %

output work = 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears

input work = 512 J of work to ride.

Mechanical efficiency = 432 J/512 J × 100 %

= 0.844 × 100%

= 84.4 %

A 4 kg object moving to the left collides with and sticks to a 3 kg object moving to the right. Which of the following is true o

madam [21]

Answer:

D. The motion cannot be determined without knowing the speeds of the objects before the collision.

Explanation:

This question is tricky! We know the object moving to the left has a greater mass than the one moving to the right. We'd <em>assume</em> they would move to the left because the leftwards object has a greater mass, right?

Not. So. Fast.

We can solve for the objects' final velocity using the formula for momentum, m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v .

Now here's where the trap is sprung: <em>we don't think about the equation</em>. This shows that the final velocity of the objects and the direction depends on both the mass of the objects <em>and</em> their initial velocity.

Basically, what if the 3 kg object is moving at 1 m/s and the 4 kg object is moving at –0.5 m/s? The objects would move to the <em>right</em> after the collision!

Do we know the velocity of these objects? No, right?

That means we <em>can't</em> determine the direction of their motion <u>unless we know their initial, pre-collision velocity</u>. This question is tricky because we look at the 4 kg vs. 3 kg and automatically assume the 4 kg object would dictate the direction of motion. That's not true. It depends on velocity as well.

I hope this helps you! Have a great day!

Engineers and science fiction writers have proposed designing space stations in the shape of a rotating wheel or ring, which wou

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

a. The station is rotating at $1.496 \frac{rev}{min}$

b. the rotation needed is $2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}$

Explanation:

We know that the centripetal acceleration is

$a_{c}= \omega ^2 r$

where $\omega$ is the rotational speed and r is the radius. As the centripetal acceleration is feel like an centrifugal acceleration in the rotating frame of reference (be careful, as the rotating frame of reference is <u>NOT INERTIAL,</u> the centrifugal force is a fictitious force, the real force is the centripetal).
