American eels (Anguilla rostrata) are freshwater fish with long, slender bodies that we can treat as a uniform cylinder 1.0 m lo

ng and 10 cm in diameter. An eel compensates for its small jaw and teeth by holding onto prey with its mouth and then rapidly spinning its body around its long axis to tear off a piece of esh. Eels have been recorded to spin at up to 14 rev/s when feeding in this way. Although this feeding method is energetically costly, it allows the eel to feed on larger prey than it otherwise could.An eel researcher uses the slow-motion feature on her phone's camera to shoot a video of an eel spinning at its maximum rate. The camera records at 120 frames per second. Through what angle does the eel rotate from one frame to the next?A. 1° B. 10° C. 22° D. 42°

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

uniform length of cylinder = 1 m

diameter of the cylinder = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Eels have been recorded to spin = 14 rev/s

camera records at = 120 frames per second

time = \dfrac{1}{120}\ s/frame

angle at which eel rotate = ?

ω = 14 rev/s

ω = 14 x 2 π rad/s

ω = 28 π rad/s

angle at which eel rotate

 θ = ω t

θ = 28\pi\times \dfrac{1}{120}

θ = 0.733 rad

θ =0.733 \times \dfrac{180^0}{2\pi}

θ =42^0

Hence, the correct answer is option D

seropon [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done by the spring is negative .

Work done by force F creating displacement  d is given by the following expression .

Work = F x d

Both force and displacement are vector quantity .

When direction of force and direction of displacement is same , work is positive . When direction of force and direction of displacement is opposite , work is negative .

When spring is compressed , it exerts a restoring or opposing force in a direction opposite to the direction of displacement of box . Hence here force is opposite to displacement . Restoring force acts opposite to displacement . Hence work done by spring on box is negative .

In the image, the net force is _______.
Sveta_85 [38]

Your correct answer would be 0 N

The forces are pulling in opposite directions, therefore they cancel each other out.

Hope that helps!!

Answer:

1.147 %

Explanation:

\rho = Density of mercury = 1.36\times 10^4\ kg/m^3

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of mercury = 8.69 m

Standard atmospheric pressure = 1.01\times 10^5\ Pa

6.55 mmHg converting to Pa

\rho gh\\ =1.36\times 10^4\times 9.81\times 8.69\times 10^{-3}\\ =1159.38504\ Pa

Dividing air pressure by the above value

\frac{1159.38504}{1.01\times 10^5}\times 100=1.147\ \%

The fraction of atmospheric pressure is 1.147 %

Volgvan

Answer:

Increasing the launch height increases the downward distance, giving the horizontal component of the velocity greater time to act upon the projectile and hence increasing the range.
