Explanation:

It is given that, the height of a certain tower is 862 feet i.e to reach on the ground the object should travel, s = 862 feet

The distance traveled by a freely falling object is given by :

s(t)=16t^2

16t^2=862

t=\sqrt{53.875}

t = 7.34 seconds

So, the object will take 7.34 seconds to fall to the ground from the top of the​ building. Hence, this is the required solution.

A disk of a radius 50 cm rotates at a constant rate of 100 rpm. What distance in meters will a point on the outside rim travel d
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

A point on the outside rim will travel 157.2 meters during 30 seconds of rotation.

                         

Explanation:

We can find the distance with the following equation since the acceleration is cero (the disk rotates at a constant rate):

d = v*t

Where:

v: is the tangential speed of the disk

t: is the time = 30 s  

The tangential speed can be found as follows:

v = \omega*r

Where:

ω: is the angular speed = 100 rpm

r: is the radius = 50 cm = 0.50 m

v = \omega*r = 100 \frac{rev}{min}*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}*\frac{1 min}{60 s}*0.50 m = 5.24 m/s    

Now, the distance traveled by the disk is:

d = v*t = 5.24 m/s*30 s = 157.2 m

Therefore, a point on the outside rim will travel 157.2 meters during 30 seconds of rotation.

I hope it helps you!

In what way would a digital thermometer be preferable to those from a liquid-based thermometer?
garik1379 [7]
Reading a digital thermometer is more preferable because you can just easily read the measurement from a screen, a number will just show in a screen as compared to a liquid-based thermometer where you still have to read the measurement by counting the markers in the thermometer. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!
