A tall, cylindrical chimney falls over when its base is ruptured. Treat the chimney as a thin rod of length 53.2 m. At the insta
rusak2 [61]
From an energy balance, we can use this formula to solve for the angular speed of the chimney

ω^2 = 3g / h sin θ

Substituting the given values:
ω^2 = 3 (9.81) / 53.2 sin 34.1
ω^2 = 0.987 /s

The formula for radial acceleration is:
a = rω^2

So,
a = 53.2 (0.987) = 52.494 /s^2

The linear velocity is:
v^2 = ar
v^2 = 52.949 (53.2) = 2816.887

The tangential acceleration is:
a = r v^2
a = 53.2 (2816.887)
a = 149858.378 m/s^2

If the tangential acceleration is equal to g:
g = r^2 3g / sin θ
Solving for θ
θ = 67°

Air bags can be dangerous or fatal under certain circumstances. you should not sit closer than ______ inches from the steering w
pishuonlain [190]
<span>10 inches
You are at risk of serious injury if you sit less than 10 inches away from the steering wheel, because of the speed and force the airbag deploys at. This is also part of the reason why driving instructors now instruct you to hold the steering wheel from the lower parts, rather than the top, which can cause your thumbs to break if the air bag deploys.</span>
