The propeller of a World War II fighter plane is 2.30 m in diameter. (a) What is its angular velocity in radians per second if i

Sergio [31]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of fighter plane=2.3 m

Radius= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.3}{2}=1.15 m$

a.We have to find the angular velocity in radians per second if it spins=1200 rev/min

Frequency= $\frac{1200}{60}=20 Hz$

1 minute=60 seconds

Angular velocity= $\omega=2\pi f$

Angular velocity= $2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 20=125.7 rad/s$

b.We have to find the linear speed of its tip at this angular velocity if the plane is stationary on the tarmac.

$v=r\omega=1.15\times 125.7=144.56 m/s$

c.Centripetal acceleration= $\omega^2 r=(125.7)^2(1.15)=18170.56 m/s^2$

Centripetal acceleration== $\frac{18170.56\times g}{9.81}=1852.25 g m/s^2$

a shot putter releases the shot some distance above the level ground with a velocity of 12.0 m/s, 51.0 ∘above the horizontal. th

Savatey [412]

Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

The range (horizontal distance) of the projectile is determined only by its horizontal motion.

The horizontal motion is a motion with constant speed, which is equal to the initial horizontal velocity of the object:

$v_x = v cos \theta$

where

v = 12.0 m/s is the initial velocity

$\theta=51.0^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of v and the horizontal

Substituting,

$v_x = (12.0 m/s)(cos 51.0^{\circ} )=7.55 m/s$

We know that the projectile hits the ground in a time of

t = 2.08 s

so the horizontal distance covered is

$d = v_x t = (7.55 m/s)(2.08 s)=15.7 m$

At what depth of lake water is the pressure equal to 201kpa?

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

20m

Explanation:

Pressure = pgh

p = density of water 1000

kg/m^3

g = acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s^2

h is the depth of water

Pressure = 201 kPa = 201 x 10^3 Pa

201 x 10^3 = 1000 x 9.81 x h

201 x 10^3 = 9810h

h = 20.49 m

Approximately 20 m

A box with a mass of 2 kg accelerates in a straight line

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer: 16N

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of box M= 2 kg

Initial speed V1 = 4 m/s

Final speed V2 = 8 m/s

Time taken T= 0.5 s

Average strength of this force F = ?

Now, recall that Force is the rate of change of momentum per unit time

i.e Force = momentum / time

Hence, F = M x (V2 - V1)/T

F = 2kg x (8 m/s - 4 m/s) / 0.5s

F = 2kg x (4 m/s / 0.5s)

F = 2kg x 8 m/s/s)

F = 16N

Thus, the average strength of this

force is 16 newton.
