<span>A very simple example is the light bulb question. If the light bulb in your room goes out, scientific reasoning will first attribute it to a short circuit. Then, after setting up the hypothesis, we go and check if changing the fuse solves the problem. if not, the hypothesis is rejected and we change the hypothesis and do another experiment.</span>

a truck drives up a hill with a 15 incline. if the truck has a constant speed of 22m/s, what are the horizontal and vertical com
Kamila [148]

Answer:

speed of truck (v) =  22 m/s ,

angle of hill (Θ) =15°

Find

Vertical component (Fv) = ?

Harizontal component (Fh) =?

               Vertical component (Fh) = V cosΘ

                                                        = 22. cos 15

                                                        = 21.25 m/s.

               Harizontal component (Fv) = V sinΘ

                                                            = 22. sin 15

                                                            = 5.69 m/s.

An electric fan is turned off, and its angular velocity decreases uniformly from 500 rev/min to 200 rev/min in 4.00 s.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

a) -1.25 rev/s² and 23.3 rev

b)  2.67s

Explanation:

a) ωФ_o_z = (500 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 8.333 rev/s

ωФ_Z= (200 rev/min)(1min/ 60s) => 3.333rev/s

time 't'= 4 s

angular acceleration 'αФ_Z'=?

constant angular acceleration equation is given by,

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

αФ_Z= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z )/t => (3.333-8.333)/4

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

θ-θФ_o = ωФ_o_z t + 1/2αФ_Zt²

      =(8.333)(4) + 1/2 (-1.25)(4)²

      =23.3 rev

b) ωФ_Z=0   (comes to rest)

ωФ_o_z = 3.333 rev/s

αФ_Z= -1.25 rev/s²

ωФ_Z= ωФ_o_z + αФ_Zt

t= (ωФ_Z - ωФ_o_z)/αФ_Z => (0- 3.333)/-1.25

t= 2.67s

a large truck has a mass of 20000kg. it is traveling at 28m/s along a staright road . calculate the kinetic energy ​
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>7,840,000 J</h2>

Explanation:

The kinetic energy KE of an object given it's mass and velocity can be found by using the formula

KE =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question

m = 20000kg

v = 28 m/s

It's kinetic energy is

KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 20000 \times  {28}^{2}  \\  = 10000 \times 784

We have the final answer as

<h3>7,840,000 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

During a testing process, a worker in a factory mounts a bicycle wheel on a stationary stand and applies a tangential resistive
Alex

Answer:

616.223684211 N

Explanation:

F_r = Resistive force on the wheel = 115 N

F = Force acting on sprocket

r_2 = Radius of sprocket = 4.75 cm

r_1 = Radius of wheel = 25 cm

Moment of inertia is given by

I=mr_1^2\\\Rightarrow I=1.7\times 0.25^2\\\Rightarrow I=0.10625\ kgm^2

Torque

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.10625\times 4.9\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.520625\ Nm

Torque is given by

\tau=Fr_2-F_rr_1\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{\tau+F_rr_1}{r_2}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{0.520625+115\times 0.25}{0.0475}\\\Rightarrow F=616.223684211\ N

The force on the chain is 616.223684211 N
