You are sitting on a merry-go-round at a distance of 2m from its center. It spins 15 times in 3 min. What distance do you move a
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

A) 12.57 m

B) 5 RPM

C) 3.142 m/s

Explanation:

A) Distance covered in 1 Revolution:

The formula that gives the relationship between the arc length or distance covered during circular motion to the angle subtended or the revolutions, is given as follows:

s = rθ

where,

s = distance covered = ?

r = radius of circle = 2 m

θ = Angle = 2π radians  (For 1 complete Revolution)

Therefore,

s = (2 m)(2π radians)

<u>s = 12.57 m</u>

B) Angular Speed:

The formula for angular speed is given as:

ω = θ/t

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

θ = angular distance covered = 15 revolutions

t = time taken = 3 min

Therefore,

ω = 15 rev/3 min

<u>ω = 5 RPM</u>

C) Linear Speed:

The formula that gives the the linear speed of an object moving in a circular path is given as:

v = rω

where,

v = linear speed = ?

r = radius = 2 m

ω = Angular Speed in rad/s = (15 rev/min)(2π rad/1 rev)(1 min/60 s) = 1.571 rad/s

Therefore,

v = (2 m)(1.571 rad/s)

<u>v = 3.142 m/s</u>

A 23.5 g piece of aluminum metal is initially at 100.0°C. It is dropped into a coffee cup-calorimeter containing 130.0 g of wate
vivado [14]

Answer: The molar heat capacity of aluminum is 25.3J/mol^0C

Explanation:

heat_{absorbed}=heat_{released}

As we know that,  

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]         .................(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

m_1 = mass of water = 130.0 g

m_2 = mass of aluminiunm = 23.5 g

T_{final} = final temperature = 26.0^oC=(273+26)K=299K

T_1 = temperature of water = 23^oC=(273+23)K=296K

T_2 = temperature of aluminium = 100^oC=273+100=373K

c_1 = specific heat of water= 4.184J/g^0C

c_2 = specific heat of aluminium= ?

Now put all the given values in equation (1), we get

130.0\times 4.184\times (299-296)=-[23.5\times c_2\times (299-373)]

c_2=0.938J/g^0C

Molar mass of Aluminium = 27 g/mol

Thus molar heat capacity =0.938J/g^0C\times 27g/mol=25.3J/mol^0C
