When brett and will ride the​ carousel, brett always selects a horse on the outside​ row, whereas will prefers the row closest t

o the center. these rows are 19 ft 5 in. and 12 ft 3 in. from the​ center, respectively. the angular speed of the carousel is 2.2 revolutions per minute. what is the​ difference, in miles per​ hour, in the linear speeds of brett and​ will?

When the motion is traveling on a straight line, we say that it travels at a certain linear speed or velocity. But when it is in circular motion, the distance it travels is angular. So, this time, we say that it travels at a certain angular speed or velocity. The relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity is:

V = rω
where
V is the linear velocity
r is the radius of the circle
ω is the angular velocity

The final answer should be in miles per hour. To be consistent, let's transform all distances to miles and time to hour.

Brett's distance:
19 ft + 12 in = 19 ft + 12 in (1 ft/12 in) = 20 ft
1 foot is equal to 0.000189394 mile
20 ft * 0.000189394 = 0.00378788 miles

Will's distance:
12 ft + 3 in = 12 ft + 3(1ft/12in) = 12.25 ft
12.25 ft * 0.000189394 = 0.00232 miles

Next, we convert ω from revolution per minute to radians per minute. One revolution is equal to 2π radians, and 60 minutes is equal to 1 hour:

ω = 2.2 rev/min * (2π rad/1 rev) * (60 min/1 hr)
ω = 264π rad/hour

Now, we can determine the linear velocities of Brett and Will:

Brett's linear velocity = (0.00378788 miles)(264π rad/hour)
Brett's linear velocity = 3.142 miles/h

Will's linear velocity = (0.00232 miles)(264π rad/hour)
Will's linear velocity = 1.924 miles/h

Answer:

x=63

Step-by-step explanation:

The two interior angles add up the the exterior angle, so 51+x+12=2x. From there, solve to get x=63. Hope this helped!

Three coins are flipped.
Darina [25.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

when 3 coins are flipped the following outcomes are possible

h = heads, t = tails

h h h

h h t

h t h

h t t

t h h

t h t

t t h

t t t

yes, there have to be 8 options, because we have 3 positions with 2 possible outcomes. that means

2×2×2 = 2³ = 8 possibilities.

2.

at least 2 tails means 2 or 3 t in the list item :

h t t

t h t

t t h

t t t

3.

so, 4 out of the 8 possible outcomes. the probability is then therefore

4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5

A linear equation cannot be used.
because 60/1 isn't equal to 70/5 and isn't equal to 80/20 and so on.
