Two​ pulleys, one with radius 2 inches and one with radius 9 inches​, are connected by a belt. If the 2-inch pulley is caused to

rotate at 5 revolutions per minute​, determine the revolutions per minute of the 9 dash inch pulley. ​ (Hint: The linear speeds of the pulleys are the​ same, both equal the speed of the​ belt.)

Answer:

the <em>revolutions per minute</em> for the 9 inch pulley is <em>10/9</em>.

Explanation:

Step 1:

The linear speed of the belt is

linear speed = circumference × revolutions per minute, that is

v = 2π r × ω

where

  • r is the radius of the pulley
  • ω is the revolutions per minute

Therefore, the linear speed of the 2 inch pulley is:

v₂ = (2π × 2 in) × (5 rev/min)

v₂ = 4π × (5 rev/min)

Step 2:

Compute the linear speed of the belt for the 9 inch pulley:

v₈ = (2π × 9 in) × (x rev/min)

v₈ = 18π × (x rev/min)

Step 3:

Since the linear speed is the same for both pulleys, therefore

v₂ = v₈

4π × (5 rev/min) = 18π × ω₈

ω₈ = (4π × (5 rev/min)) / 18π

<em>ω₈ = 10/9 rev/min</em>

Therefore, the <em>revolutions per minute</em> for the 8 inch pulley is <em>10/9</em>.

How is an elliptical galaxy different from a spiral galaxy?
laiz [17]
An elliptical galaxy is a type of galaxy having an approximately ellipsoidal shape and a smooth, nearly featureless brightness profile.

Unlike flat spiral galaxies with organization and structure, they are more three-dimensional, without much structure, and their stars are in somewhat random orbits around the center.

59. (II) The crate shown in Fig. 4-60 lies on a plane tilted at an angle A = 25.0° to the horizontal, with Mk 0.19. (a) Determin
Daniel [21]

Explanation:

a) We need to write down first Newton's 2nd law as applied to the given system. The equations of motion for the x- and y-axes can be written as follows:

x:\;\;\;\;\;mg\sin 25° - \mu_kN = ma\;\;\;\;\;\;(1)

y:\;\;\;\;\;N - mg\cos 25° = 0\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(2)

From Eqn(2), we see that

N = mg\cos 25°\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(3)

so using Eqn(3) on Eqn(1), we get

mg\sin 25° - \mu_kmg\cos 25° = ma

Solving for the acceleration, we see that

a = g(\sin 25° - \mu_k\cos 25°)

\;\;\;\;= 2.45\:\text{m/s}^2

b) Now that we have the acceleration, we can now solve for the velocity of the crate at the bottom of the plane. Using the equation

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax

Since the crate started from rest, v_0 = 0. Thus our equation reduces to

v^2 = 2ax \Rightarrow v = \sqrt{2ax}

v = \sqrt{2(2.45\:\text{m/s}^2)(8.15\:\text{m})}

\;\;\;\;= 6.32\:\text{m/s}
