Answer:

The kinetic energy of the merry-go-round is 632.82 J

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the merry-go-round, W = 649 N

radius of the merry-go-round, r = 1.05 m

applied horizontal force, F =  61.3 N

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

mass of  merry-go-round, m = W/g

                                               = 649/9.8  = 66.225 kg

moment of inertia of merry-go-round, I = ¹/₂mr²

                                                                 = ¹/₂ x 66.225 x (1.05)²

                                                                 = 36.507 kg.m²

Angular acceleration of the merry-go-round, α

τ = Iα = Fr

α = Fr / I

Where;

α is angular acceleration

α = (61.3 x 1.05) / 36.507

α = 1.763 rad/s²

Angular velocity of the merry-go-round, ω

ω = αt

ω = 1.763 x 3.34

ω = 5.888 rad/s

Finally, the kinetic energy of the merry-go-round, K.E

K.E = ¹/₂Iω²

K.E = ¹/₂ x 36.507 x (5.888)²

K.E = 632.82 J

A student throws a 130 g snowball at 6.5 m/s at the side of the schoolhouse, where it hits and sticks. What is the magnitude of
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

4.7 N

Explanation:

130 g = 0.13 kg

The momentum of the snowball when it's thrown at the wall is

p = mv = 0.13*6.5 = 0.845 kgm/s

Which is also the impulse. From here we can calculate the magnitude of the average force F knowing the duration of the collision is 0.18 s

p = F\Delta t

F*0.18 = 0.845

F = 0.845 / 0.18 = 4.7 N

The magnitude of a force vector is 89.6 newtons (N). The x component of this vector is directed along the +x axis and has a magn
insens350 [35]

Answer:

(a) θ = 33.86°

(b) Ay = 49.92 N

Explanation:

You have that the magnitude of a vector is A = 89.6 N

The x component of such a vector is Ax = 74.4 N

(a) To find the angle between the vector and the x axis you use the following formula for the calculation of the x component of a vector:

A_x=Acos\theta       (1)

Ax: x component of vector A

A: magnitude of vector A

θ: angle between vector A and the x axis

You solve the equation (1) for θ, by using the inverse of cosine function:

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{A_x}{A})=cos{-1}(\frac{74.4N}{89.6N})\\\\\theta=33.86\°

the angle between the A vector and the x axis is 33.86°

(b) The y component of the vector is given by:

A_y=Asin\theta\\\\A_y=(89.6N)sin(33.86\°)=49.92N

the y comonent of the vecor is Ay = 49.92 N

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a) The flea's speed when it leaves the ground is v=1.88m/s

b) The flea move 18cm upward while it is pushing off

Explanation:

Hi

<u>Knwons</u>

Mass m=2.1\times 10^{-4} kg, Work W=3.7\times 10^{-4} J and Force F=0.41N

a) Here we are going to use W=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}, so v=\sqrt{\frac{2W}{m} }= \sqrt{\frac{2(3.7\times 10^{-4} J)}{2.1\times 10^{-4} kg} }=1.88m/s

a) Here we are going to use W=mgh, so h=\frac{W}{mg}= \frac{3.7\times 10^{-4} J}{(2.1\times 10^{-4} kg)(9.8m/s^{2})} =0,1797m or 18cm approx.

If an X-ray beam of wavelength 1.4 × 10-10 m makes an angle of 20° with a set of planes in a crystal causing first order constru
Flura [38]

Answer:

43.16°

Explanation:

λ = Wavelength = 1.4×10⁻¹⁰ m

θ₁ = 20°

n can be any integer

d = distance between the two slits

Since for the first bright fringe, n₁ = 1

n₂ = 2 for second order line

The relation between the distance of the slits and the angle through which it is passed is:

dsinθ=nλ

As d and λ are constant

\frac{n_1\lambda}{sin \theta_1}=\frac{n_2\lambda}{sin \theta_2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{sin20}=\frac{2}{sin\theta_2}\\\Rightarrow sin\theta_2=\frac{2}{\frac{1}{sin20}}\\\Rightarrow \theta_2=sin^{-1}{\frac{2}{\frac{1}{sin20}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta_2=43.16^{\circ}

∴ Angle by which the second order line appear is 43.16°
