A common carnival ride, called a gravitron, is a large r = 11 m cylinder in which people stand against the outer wall. the cylin

der spins so that the riders move with a linear speed v. At a certain point the floor of the cylinder lowers and the people are surprised they don't slide down. The friction between the wall and their clothes is μs = 0.62. What is the minimum speed, in meters per second, that the cylinder must make a person move at to ensure they will "stick" to the wall?

Answer:

 v = 13.19 m / s

Explanation:

This problem must be solved using Newton's second law, we create a reference system where the x-axis is perpendicular to the cylinder and the Y-axis is vertical

 

X axis

       N = m a

Centripetal acceleration is

       a = v² / r

Y Axis

      fr -W = 0

      fr = W

The force of friction is

     fr = μ N

Let's calculate

    μ (m v² / r) = mg

   μ v² / r = g

   v² = g r / μ

   v = √ (g r /μ)

   v = √ (9.8 11 / 0.62)

   v = 13.19 m / s

A generator uses a coil that has 100 turns and a 0.50-T magnetic field. The frequency of this generator is 60.0 Hz, and its emf
lana [24]

Answer:

38 m

Explanation:

Number of turns=N=100

Magnetic field=B=0.50 T

Frequency of the generator=f=60 Hz

Rms value of emf=E_{rms}=120 V

We have to find the length of the wire from which the coil is made.

Peak value of emf=E_0=E_{rms}\sqrt 2=120\times \sqrt 2=169.7 V

Length of wire=4\sqrt{\frac{NE_0}{2\pi fB}}

Substitute the values

Length of wire=4\times \sqrt{\frac{169.7\times 100}{0.50\times 2\pi\times 60}}

Length of wire=38 m

Hence, the length of wire from which the coil is made=38 m

A research team developed a robot named Ellie. Ellie ran 1,000 meters for 200 seconds from the research building, rested for 100
Verizon [17]

Answer:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

Explanation:

Attached you will find the plot of position vs time of Ellie´s movement.

The velocity is the displacement of the object over time relative to the system of reference. The speed, in change, is the traveled distance over time in disregard of the system of reference.

So, the velocity is calculated as follows:

v = Δx / Δt

where

Δx = final position - initial position

Δt = elapsed time

1) The average velocity of Ellie while running is:

v = 1000 m - 0 m / 200 s = 5 m/s

While resting:

v = 0 m - 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

And while walking back:

v = 0 m - 1000 m / 1000 s = - 1 m/s

Note that in this last case, the initial position is 1000 m because Ellie is 1000 m from the origin of the system of reference when she walks back. The final position will be the origin of the system of reference, 0 m.

Comparing with the graphic, the velocity is the slope of the function position(t).

Then:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

2) The speed is the distance traveled over time:

Running speed = 1000 m / 200 s = 5m /s

Resting speed = 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

Walking speed = 1000 m/ 1000 s = 1 m/s

Then:

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

Which properties of a lava lamp are important to remember when modeling convection?
Luba_88 [7]
Important thing when making a lava lamp are the two liquids with different density so that it would not mix and that it would expand when heated. The movement of the orange liquid is called convection. if you will not heat the orange one, it till just stay on the stop and not go under tha water.

A proton is initially moving west at a speed of 1.10 106 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.281 T directed verticall
kifflom [539]

Answer:

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

Explanation:

As we know that proton is moving towards west while the magnetic field is vertically upwards

So here the force on the proton must be perpendicular to the velocity

So here we have

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

so here we have

F = qvB sin90

since force is perpendicular to the velocity so here it must be centripetal force

here we have

\frac{mv^2}{R} = qvB

so we have

R = \frac{mv}{qB}

R = \frac{(1.66 \times 10^{-27})(1.10 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.281)}

R = 4.06 cm

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm
