A centrifuge is used to test space pilots. The centrifuge spins with a centripetal acceleration of 6.54 g. If the length of the

centrifuge's arm is 15 m, what is the speed of the centrifuge?

The centripetal acceleration is calculated using the following rule:
C = (v^2) / (r)
where:
C is the centripetal acceleration = 6.54 g = 6.54 * 9.8 = 64.092 m/sec^2
v is the speed of the centrifuge that we want to calculate
r is the radius of radius (length of centrifuge arm) = 15 m

Substitute with the givens to get the speed as follows:
64.092 = (v^2) / 15
v^2 = 961.38
v = 31.006 m/sec

The formula for centripital acceleration is:
a= v²/r, where v is the speed of the object, and r is the length from the center of the system. 

a is in g, rather than m/s/s, so we convert:
6.54g * 9.8m/s²/1g = 64.09m/s²

Plugging in our values: 
64.09 = v²/15                      Multiply both sides by 15
961.38 = v²
v = 31m/s

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

The elements in the modern periodic table are arranged in order of their atomic numbers, which is the number of protons in the nuclei of the atoms of a an element. Each element has a unique atomic number. The atomic numbers are also whole numbers.

Find the torque when the work done to more through an angel of 1/4π radians is 3j​
Basile [38]

Answer:

The torque is approximately 3.82 N·m

Explanation:

The relationship between work done, 'W', and the applied torque, 'τ' can be presented as follows;

W = τ × Δθ

Where;

W = The work done by the torque

τ = The magnitude of the torque

Δθ = The angle through which the object is turned

The parameters for 'W' and 'Δθ' are;

W = 3j

Δθ = 1/4 × π

From W = τ × Δθ, we have;

τ = W/Δθ

∴ τ = 3j/(1/4 × π) ≈ 3.81971863421 N·m

The torque, τ ≈ 3.82 N·m

Sunlight is composed of wavelengths of light that make up part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Towson University Exam Question.
Helen [10]

Answer:

f= 5.11 * 10^{10}Hz

Explanation:

Given

\lambda = 0.587cm

<em>See comment for complete question</em>

Required

Calculate the frequency

Frequency is calculated using:

f = \frac{c}{\lambda}

Where

c \to speed of light

c =299792458 ms^{-1}

\lambda = 0.587cm

Convert wave length to meters

\lambda = 0.587 * 0.01m

\lambda = 0.00587m

So, we have:

f = \frac{c}{\lambda}

f=\frac{299792458 ms^{-1}}{0.00587m}

f=\frac{299792458}{0.00587}Hz

f= 5.11 * 10^{10}Hz
