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

When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a gas. What type of change is it? Explain.
lorasvet [3.4K]

\large{\underline{\underline{\pmb{\frak {\color {red}{Question:}}}}}}

\sf \red{When \: baking \: soda \: is \: mixed \: with \: lemon \: juice, \: bubbles \: are \: formed \: with \: the \: evolution \: of \: a \: gas.}

\large{\underline{\underline{\pmb{\frak {\color {blue}{Answer:}}}}}}

When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a gas. The gas is formed in the reaction is Carbon dioxide. CO_{2} is formed.

The change which happened in this reaction is a chemical change.

\boxed{ \frak \green{Explanation}}

Since, in chemical change we can't bring a substance to it's actual form how it was in earlier.

Examples: burning of paper is chemical, since we can't get the fine paper again after it is burnt.

Thus, the above reaction is also a chemical change, since we can't get back the lemon juice how it was earlier.

Consider a transformer. used to recharge rechargeable flashlight batteries, that has 500 turns in its primary coil, 3 turns in i
Rashid [163]

Answer:

<em>a) 0.72 V</em>

<em>b) 19.2 mA</em>

<em>c) 2.304 Watts</em>

Explanation:

A transformer is used to step-up or step-down voltage and current. It uses the principle of electromagnetic induction. When the primary coil is greater than the secondary coil, the it is a step-down transformer, and when the primary coil is less than the secondary coil, the it is a step-up transformer.

number of primary turns = N_{p} = 500 turns

input voltage = V_{p} = 120 V

number of secondary turns = N_{s} = 3 turns

output voltage = V_{s} = ?

using the equation for a transformer

\frac{V_{s} }{V_{p} }  = \frac{N_{s} }{N_{p} }

substituting values, we have

\frac{V_{s} }{120 }  = \frac{3 }{500} }

500V_{p}  = 120*3\\500V_{p} = 360

V_{p} = 360/500 =<em> 0.72 V</em>

<em></em>

b) by law of energy conservation,

I_{P}V_{p} = I_{s}V_{s}

where

I_{p} = input current = ?

I_{s} = output voltage = 3.2 A

V_{s} = output voltage = 0.72 V

V_{p} = input voltage = 120 V

substituting values, we have

120I_{p} = 3.2 x 0.72

120I_{p} = 2.304

I_{p}  = 2.304/120 = 0.0192 A

= <em>19.2 mA</em>

<em></em>

c) power input = I_{p} V_{p}

==> 0.0192 x 120 = <em>2.304 Watts</em>

What is/are the difference between wavelength and spectral lines?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

<u><em>Definition of spectral line: </em></u><em>one of a series of linear images formed by a spectrograph or similar instrument and corresponding to a narrow portion of the spectrum of the radiation emitted or absorbed by a particular source.</em>

<em />

<u><em>Definition of Wavelength:</em></u><em> can be defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave. It is measured in the direction of the wave. ... Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency. This means the longer the wavelength, lower the frequency.</em>

<em />

<em>So, the spectrum is the range of wavelength in visible light. While, wavelength is the length of a wave.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

I hope this helps!
