beks73 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Differences are listed below:

Explanation:

Weight: Plastic can weigh appreciably much less than than metal.A plastic part weighs approximately one-sixth of the same part in steel.

Chemical resistance:Plastic are much less likely to suffer chemical attack and don not corrode.

Machinability: Plastic are much more easier to cut through than metal.

Product life: The life span for plastic is longer than of the metals in many applications.

Cost: The cost of plastic raw materials is appreciably less than of the metals.

Heat: Plastic are less heat resistive than metals.

Ultraviolet light can degrade the plastics soon.

Strength: Metal provides more strength than the plastic.

Water is drawn from a well in a bucket tied to the end of a rope whose other end wraps around a solid cylinder of mass 50 kg and
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of solid cylinder, m=50\ kg
  • diameter of cylinder, d=0.25\ m
  • mass of bucket of water, m_w=20\ kg

<em>When the bucket is released to fall in the well, it fall under the acceleration due to gravity.</em>

We have formula for angular acceleration as:

\alpha=\frac{g}{r}

where:

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius of the cylinder

\aplha=\frac{9.8}{0.125}

\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}
