A space station in the shape of a 100 m-diameter (50m radius) wheel is spinning so as to impart a linear tangential speed of 22.

1 m/s to a point on its outmost wall, thereby providing an artificial gravity of 1g. What should be the tangential speed to increase the artificial gravity to 2 g?
a. 44.2 m/s
b. 31.3 m/s
c. 88.4 m/s
d. 27.8 m/s
e. 177 m/s

Answer:

correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

Explanation:

given data

artificial gravity a1 = 1 g

artificial gravity a2 = 2 g

diameter = 100 m

radius  r= 50 m

speed v1 = 22.1 m/s

solution

As acceleration is  ∝ v²

so we can say

\frac{a2}{a1} = \frac{v2}{v1}    .....................1

put here value

\frac{2}{1} = \frac{v2}{22.1}  

solve it

v2 = \sqrt{2 } × 22.1

v2 = 31.25 m/s

so correct option is b. 31.3 m/s

An object glides on a horizontal tabletop with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5. If its initial velocity is 4.3 m/s, how
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Time, t = 0.87 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of the object, u = 4.3 m/s

The coefficient of kinetic friction between horizontal tabletop and the object is 0.5

We need to find the time taken by the object for the object to come to rest i.e. final velocity will be 0.

Using first equation of motion to find it as :

v=u+at

a is the acceleration, here, a=\mu g

0=u+\mu gt

t=\dfrac{u}{\mu g}\\\\t=\dfrac{4.3}{0.5\times 9.8}\\\\t=0.87\ s

So, the time taken by the object to come at rest is 0.87 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

1 kg air in a piston-cylinder assembly is heated at constant pressure, resulting the expansion of the volume. the initial temper
rewona [7]

Answer:

57,42 KJ

Explanation:

By a isobaric proces, the expresion for the works in the jpg adjunt. Then:

W = Pa(Vb - Va) = Pa*Vb - Pa*Va ---(1)

By the ideal gases law: PV=RTn

Then, in (1): (remember Pa = Pb)

W =  R*Tb*n - R*T*an = R*n*(Tb - Ta) --- (2)

Since we have 1 Kg air: How much is this in moles?

From bibliography: 28.96 g/mol

Then, in 1 Kg (1000 g) there are:

n =  34,53 mol

Finally, in (2):

W =  (8,3144 J/K.mol)*(34,53 mol)*(500K - 300K) = 51 419,9 J ≈ 57,42 KJ

A 50.0 kg person is walking horizontally with constant acceleration of 0.25 m/s² inside an elevator. The elevator is also accele
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The acceleration is in 2 D as in between east and south.

Explanation:

mass, m = 50 kg

acceleration, a = 0.25 m/s^2 horizontal

acceleration of elevator, a' = 1 m/s^2 downwards

When a person on the ground the resultant acceleration of the person with respect to the ground is between east and south direction so the path os parabolic in nature. It graph is shown below:
