A coin of mass m rests on a turntable a distance r from the axis of rotation. The turntable rotates with a frequency of f. What
Crank

Answer:

\mu = \frac{r (2\pi f)^{2}}{g}

Explanation:

N = normal force acting on the coin

Normal force in the upward direction balances the weight of the coin, hence

N = mg

f = frequency of rotation

Angular velocity of turntable is hence given as

w = 2\pi f

r = distance from the axis of rotation

\mu = minimum coefficient of static friction

static frictional force is given as

f = \mu N\\f = \mu mg

The  static frictional force provides the necessary centripetal force , hence

Centripetal force = Static frictional force

m r w^{2} = \mu mg\\r w^{2} = \mu g\\\\\mu = \frac{r w^{2}}{g} \\\mu = \frac{r (2\pi f)^{2}}{g}

kiruha [24]

Answer:

a) 4 289.8 J

b) 4 289.8 J

c) 6 620.1 N

d) 411 186.3 m/s^2

e) 6 620.1 N

Explanation:

Hi:

a)

The kinetic energy of the bullet is given by the following formula:

K = (1/2) m * v^2

With

    m = 16.1 g = 1.61 x 10^-2 kg

     v = 730 m/s

K = 4 289.8 J

b)

the work-kinetic energy theorem states that the work done on a system is the same as the differnce in kinetic energy of the same. Since the initial state of the bullet was at zero velocity (it was at rest)  Ki = 0, therefore:

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki  = 4 289.8 J

c)

The work done by a force is given by the line intergarl of the force along the trayectory of the system (in this case the bullet).

If we consider a constant force (and average net force) directed along the trayectory of the bullet, the work and the force will be realted by:

W = F * L

Where F is the net force and L is the length of the barrel, that is:

F = (4 289.8 J) / (64.8 cm) = (4 289.8 Nm) / (0.648 m) = 6620.1 N

d)

The acceleration can be found dividing the force by the mass:

a = F/m = (6620.1 N) /(16.1 g) = 411 186.3 m/s^2

e)

The force will have a magnitude equal to c) and direction along the barrel towards the exit

Could Mars be a suitable alternative to Earth as a second home for humans? Explain your answer.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

After the Earth, Mars is the most habitable planet in our solar system due to several reasons: Its soil contains water to extract. It isn't too cold or too hot. ... Gravity on Mars is 38% that of our Earth's, which is believed by many to be sufficient for the human body to adapt to.
