Answer:

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that Ferris wheel accelerates at constant rate, the angular acceleration as a function of change in angular position and the squared final and initial angular velocities can be clear from the following expression:

\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})

Where:

\omega_{o}, \omega - Initial and final angular velocities, measured in radians per second.

\alpha - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

\theta_{o}, \theta - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

Then,

\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}

Given that \omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}, \omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} and \theta-\theta_{o} = 4.9\,rad, the angular acceleration is:

\alpha = \frac{\left(0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(4.9\,rad\right)}

\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Now, the time needed to accelerate the Ferris wheel uniformly is described by this kinematic equation:

\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t

Where t is the time measured in seconds.

The time is cleared and obtain after replacing every value:

t = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{\alpha}

If \omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s},  \omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} and \alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}, the required time is:

t = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }

t = 14\,s

Average angular acceleration is obtained by dividing the difference between final and initial angular velocities by the time found in the previous step. That is:

\bar \alpha = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{t}

If \omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s},  \omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} and t = 14\,s, the average angular acceleration is:

\bar \alpha = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{14\,s}

\bar \alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

xeze [42]

Answer:

The speed of bullet is 354.2 m/s

Explanation:

initial temperature, T = 30 degree C

specific heat, c = 128 J/kg K

Latent heat, L = 24.7 x 1000 J/kg

melting point = 600 K = 327 degree C

Let the mass is m and the speed is v.

Kinetic energy = heat used to increase the temperature + Heat used to melt

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = m c (T' - T) + m L\\\\0.5 v^2 = 128 \times (327 - 30) + 24.7\times 1000\\\\0.5 v^2 = 38016 + 24700 \\\\0.5 v^2 = 62716\\\\v = 354.2 m/s

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it
Verizon [17]

Answer: 2.9 g/cm^{3}

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

mass of rock = 220 g

volume of displaced water = 75 cm^{3}

the density of an object is gotten from the formula density = \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question, we were given the mass of a rock and volume of water the rock displaces.

When water is placed in a graduated cylinder and a rock is placed in the water, the volume of water the rock displaces is the increase in the reading of water after the rock has been put in it. The amount of water displaced is known as the volume of the rock.

therefore volume of the rock = volume of water displaced

density = \frac{220}{75} = 2.9 g/cm^{3}
