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>.

Carbon-14 is used to determine the time an organism was living. The amount of carbon-14 an organism has is constant with the atm

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The age of the organism is approximately 11460 years.

Explanation:

The amount of carbon-14 decays exponentially in time and is defined by the following equation:

$\frac{n(t)}{n_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$ (1)

Where:

$n_{o}$ - Initial amount of carbon-14.

$n(t)$ - Current amount of carbon-14.

$t$ - Time, measured in years.

$\tau$ - Time constant, measured in years.

Then, we clear the time within the formula:

$t = -\tau \cdot \ln \frac{n(t)}{n_{o}}$ (2)

In addition, time constant can be calculated by means of half-life of carbon-14 ( $t_{1/2}$ ), measured in years:

$\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln 2}$

If we know that $\frac{n(t)}{n_{o}} = 0.25$ and $t_{1/2} = 5730\,yr$ , then the age of the organism is:

$\tau = \frac{5730\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau \approx 8266.643\,yr$

$t = -(8266.643\,yr)\cdot \ln 0.25$

$t \approx 11460.001\,yr$

The age of the organism is approximately 11460 years.

Paul [167]

The range of potential energies of the wire-field system for different orientations of the circle are -

θ U

0° 375 π x $10^{-7}$

90° 0

180° - 375 π x $10^{-7}$

We have current carrying wire in a form of a circle placed in a uniform magnetic field.

We have to the range of potential energies of the wire-field system for different orientations of the circle.

<h3>What is the formula to calculate the Magnetic Potential Energy?</h3>

The formula to calculate the magnetic potential energy is -

U = M.B = MB cos $$\theta$

where -

M is the Dipole Moment.

B is the Magnetic Field Intensity.

According to the question, we have -

U = M.B = MB cos $$\theta$

We can write M = IA (I is current and A is cross sectional Area)

U = IAB cos $$\theta$

U = Iπ $r^{2}$ B cos $$\theta$

For $$\theta$ = 0° →

U(Max) = MB cos(0) = MB = Iπ $r^{2}$ B = 5 × π × $( 0.05 ) ^{2}$ × 3 × $10^{-3}$ =

375 π x $10^{-7}$ .

For $$\theta$ = 90° →

U = MB cos (90) = 0

For $$\theta$ = 180° →

U(Min) = MB cos(0) = - MB = - Iπ $r^{2}$ B = - 5 × π × $( 0.05 ) ^{2}$ × 3 × $10^{-3}$ =

- 375 π x $10^{-7}$ .

Hence, the range of potential energies of the wire-field system for different orientations of the circle are -

θ U

0° 375 π x $10^{-7}$

90° 0

180° - 375 π x $10^{-7}$

You do 120 j of work while pulling your sister back on a swing, whose chain is 5.10 m long. you start with the swing hanging ver

Goryan [66]

The work done to pull the sister back on the swing is equal to the increase in potential energy of the sister:
$W= \Delta U = mg \Delta h$ (1)

where m is the sister's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and $\Delta h$ is the increase in altitude of the sister with respect to its initial position.

By calling $\theta$ the angle of the chain with respect to the vertical, the increase in altitude is given by
$\Delta h = L - L \cos \theta = L(1 - \cos \theta)$ (2)
where L is the length of the chain.

Putting (2) inside (1), we find
$W= m g L (1 - \cos \theta)$
from which we can find the mass of the sister:
$m = \frac{W}{g L (1 - \cos \theta)} = \frac{120 J}{(9.81 m/s^2)(5.10 m)(1- \cos 32.0^{\circ})} =15.8 kg$
