The Gravitron is a ride that rotates around a central axis until it reaches a certain velocity and the riders are pinned to the

walls. Once this occurs, the floor is lowered until the riders are suspended above the floor. The Gravitron has a radius of 3.00 meters and reaches a speed of 15.0 m/s. Dalnita has a mass of 55.0 kg. What is her angular velocity in radians per second?

Sounds like you've been given some unnecessary information. 
<span>The linear velocity "v" and angular velocity "w" of something in circular motion of radius "R" are related as; </span>

<span>v = Rw </span>

<span>You are given v= 15 m/s and R = 3 m , so just solve for "w".</span>

Answer:

Angular velocity of Dalnita, \omega=5\ rad/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

The radius of Gravitron, r = 3 m

Speed of gravitron, v = 15 m/s

Dalnita's mass, m = 55 kg

We need to find her angular velocity. The relationship between the angular velocity and linear speed is as follows :

v=r\times \omega

\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}

\omega=\dfrac{15\ m/s}{3\ m}

\omega=5\ rad/s

So, her angular speed is 5 radian per second. Hence, this is the required solution.

Does a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis satisfy the first and second conditions for equilibrium?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis does not satisfy both the condition of equilibrium .

First condition of equilibrium is that net force on the body should be zero.

or F net = 0

A body under uniform rotation is experiencing a centripetal force all the time so F net ≠ 0

So first condition of equilibrium is not satisfied.

Second condition is that , net torque acting on the body  must be zero.

In case of a rigid object in uniform rotation , centripetal force is applied towards the centre ie  towards the  line joining the body under rotation with the axis .

F is along r

torque = r x F

= r F sinθ

θ = 0 degree

torque = 0

Hence 2nd condition is fulfilled.

Consider a situation where a constant force of 25 N acts on an object having a mass of 2 kg for 3 seconds. What is the work done
blagie [28]

Answer:

Work done W =1406.25 J

Explanation:

Work done on a body can be calculated using newton's 2nd laws:

F=ma

\Rightarrow a=\frac{F}{m}

Hence acceleration of the block is given by:

\Rightarrow a=\frac{25}{2}=12.5m/s^2

Displacement of the object is given by:

\Rightarrow S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substitute the values

\Rightarrow S=0*3+\frac{1}{2}(12.5)3^2

\Rightarrow S=56.25 m

Now work done is given by:

 W=F.S

W = 25×56.25

W =1406.25 J
