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>.

A beetle crawling around on a desk walks 19 cm in 17 seconds to the right. It then changes direction and walks 6 cm in 6 seconds
Andre45 [30]

Answer: 11.5secs

Explanation:

They said what the average speed is so to find the average you have to find the mean so 17secs + 6secs = 23secs / 2 = 11.5secs.

A. All of the stars move in a clockwise path around Polaris.
densk [106]

Explanation:

Polaris also called North star is the brightest star in the the constellation Ursa Minor. It remains stationary whereas entire north sky move around it. It the point of north celestial pole.

A) False. This is because  All of the stars move in a counterclockwise path around Polaris.

B) False. Reason stated above.

C) True, As the stars move towards the Polaris there orbital radius decreases as they move smaller circles.

D) False, As the stars move towards the Polaris there orbital radius decreases as they move smaller circles.

E) True.

F) False.

Which of the following would have an effect on an object's mass?
ICE Princess25 [194]
None of the above

mass is measurement of how much stuff in inside something.
if you freeze or heat an object, you merely change the state of the object. the mass is conserved.
if you change the elevation, nothing happens to the mass. the stuff will not leave the object.
so it is None of the above
