On an amusement park ride, riders stand inside a cylinder of radius 8.0 m. At first the cylinder rotates horizontally. Then afte

r the cylinder has acquired sufficient speed, it tilts into a vertical plane, as shown in the diagram. At top speed, the cylinder rotates once every 4.5 s.
The mass of one rider is 71 kg. When the rider is at the highest point and traveling at the top speed, with how much force is the rider pushed against the wall of the cylinder?

700 N

1800 N

410 N

1100 N

Answer:

410 N

Explanation:

At the highest point, there are two forces pushing the man towards the centre of the cylinder: the normal reaction (N) and his weight (W=mg). The sum of these two forces must be equal to the centripetal force. So we have

N+mg=m\omega^2 r (1)

where

m = 71 kg is the mass of the rider

g = 9.8 m/s^2

r = 8.0 m is the radius of the cylinder

\omega is the angular frequency

The cylinder rotates once every 4.5 s (period), so its angular frequency is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{4.5 s}=1.40 rad/s

So by solving eq.(1) for N, we find the force with which the wall pushes the rider:

N=m\omega^2 r-mg=(71 kg)(1.40 rad/s)^2(8.0m)-(71.0kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=417.5 N \sim 410 N

On a cello, the string with the largest linear density (1.44 x 10-2 kg/m) is the C string. This string produces a fundamental fr
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

T=346.5N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Density \rho=  (1.44 * 10^{-2} kg/m)

FrequencyF=93.0Hz

Lengthl=0.834m

Generally the equation for Frequency is mathematically given by

F=\frac{1}{2 l}sqrt{\frac{T}{\rho}}

Therefore

T=\rho(2 lF)^2

T= (1.44 * 10^{-2}*(2*0.834)(93.0))^2

T=346.5N

A helium weather balloon is filled to a volume of 219 m3 on the ground, where the pressure is 754 torr and the temperature is 29
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

V_2 = 606.9 m^3

Explanation:

By ideal gas equation law we know that

PV = nRT

now we know that when balloon rises to certain level then the number of moles will remains same

so we can say

n_1 = n_2

\frac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}

now plug in all data to find the final volume of the balloon

\frac{754\times 219}{R(298)} = \frac{210 \times V_2}{R(230)}

V_2 = \frac{230\times 754 \times 219}{210 \times 298}

V_2 = 606.9 m^3

quester [9]
For this problem, let's use the approach of dimensional analysis. This technique is done by cancelling out like units that appear both on the numerator and the denominator side. As a result, this technique will let you know that your final answer conforms to what parameter is asked. In this case, the final answer should be in kJ. We use the conversion: 1000 cal = 4.184 kJ The solution is as follows:

<span>6.95×10</span>⁵<span> cal * 4.184 kJ/1000 cal = 2,907.88 kJ</span>
