Answer:
A) a = 73.304 rad/s²
B) Δθ = 3665.2 rad
Explanation:
A) From Newton's first equation of motion, we can say that;
a = (ω - ω_o)/t. We are given that the centrifuge spins at a maximum rate of 7000rpm.
Let's convert to rad/s = 7000 × 2π/60 = 733.04 rad/s
Thus change in angular velocity = (ω - ω_o) = 733.04 - 0 = 733.04 rad/s
We are given; t = 10 s
Thus;
a = 733.04/10
a = 73.304 rad/s²
B) From Newton's third equation of motion, we can say that;
ω² = ω_o² + 2aΔθ
Where Δθ is angular displacement
Making Δθ the subject;
Δθ = (ω² - ω_o²)/2a
At this point, ω = 0 rad/s while ω_o = 733.04 rad/s
Thus;
Δθ = (0² - 733.04²)/(2 × 73.304)
Δθ = -537347.6416/146.608
Δθ = - 3665.2 rad
We will take the absolute value.
Thus, Δθ = 3665.2 rad
The equation
(option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.
The horizontal momentum is given by:


Where:
- m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg
- m₂: is the <em>mass </em>of the object dropped = 2 kg
: is the initial velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
: is the <em>initial velocit</em>y of the <em>object </em>= 0 (it is dropped)
: is the final velocity of the<em> lab cart </em>
: is the <em>final velocity</em> of the <em>object </em>
Then, the horizontal momentum is:

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object <u>will be the same</u>, so:

Therefore, the equation
represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

The answer is the third graph
Answer:
D. Both occur between objects independently whether they are in contact or not.
Explanation:
- The gravitational force is a force that is exerted between two (or more) objects having mass. This force is always attractive and its magnitude is given by

where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the two masses, and r is the distance between the two masses.
- The electrical force is a force that is exerted between two (or more) objects having electrical charge. It can be either attractive or repulsive, depending on the sign of the two charges, and its magnitude is given by

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the two charges, and r the distance between the two charges.
Looking at both formulas, we see that the two forces are present even when the two objects are not in contact with each other (in fact, r can assume any value in the formula). They are said to be non-contact forces. Therefore, the correct option is
D. Both occur between objects independently whether they are in contact or not.
