Answer:

As we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity

So in order to find the acceleration of a given system we need to find the change in velocity of the given system with respect to time.

So here the formula is given as

$a = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{\Delta t}$

so in order to find the acceleration we need

$v_2$ = final velocity

$v_1$ = initial velocity

$\Delta t$ = time interval

so here we can say that acceleration calculation must need the change in velocity and the time taken to change the velocity both and the ration of this will give us the value of the acceleration

A remote-controlled car’s wheel accelerates at 22.2 rad/s2 . If the wheel begins with an angular speed of 11.0 rad/s, what is th

wariber [46]

The angular speed remained constant after twelve turns at 11 rad/s.

Explanation:

As per the Newtons equation of motion, the final velocity can be determined by using the below equation, provided ,the displacement and acceleration with initial velocity is given.

$v^{2}= u^{2}+2as$

Since, the present case follows circular motion, the displacement will be equal to angular displacement. And the velocity is equal to angular velocity.

As the car revolves complete twelve turns, then the displacement will be zero, since the final position is equal to the initial position.

So,

$v^{2}= (11)^{2}+2*22.2*0\\\\v = 11 rad/s$

Thus, the angular speed remained constant after twelve turns at 11 rad/s.

LuckyWell [14K]

B is the best answer. Once the particles are sufficiently close, the strong nuclear force becomes stronger than the Coulomb repulsion and they are pulled together. This results in bound particles that have a binding energy that can be retrieved of you can get the particles far enough away from one another after binding, but this requires large and unstable nuclei (beyond lead on the table) These elements are referred to as radioactive, because they are prone to decaying
