An athlete swings a ball, connected to the end of a chain, in a horizontal circle. The athlete is able to rotate the ball at the

rate of 8.13 rev/s when the length of the chain is 0.600 m. When he increases the length to 0.900 m, he is able to rotate the ball only 6.04 rev/s. (a) Which rate of rotation gives the greater speed for the ball? 6.04 rev/s 8.13 rev/s (b) What is the centripetal acceleration of the ball at 8.13 rev/s? m/s2 (c) What is the centripetal acceleration at 6.04 rev/s? m/s2

(a) 6.04 rev/s

The speed of the ball is given by:

v=\omega r

where

\omega is the angular speed

r is the distance of the ball from the centre of the circle

In situation 1), we have

\omega=8.13 rev/s \cdot 2\pi = 51.0 rad/s

r = 0.600 m

So the speed of the ball is

v=(51.0 rad/s)(0.600 m)=30.6 m/s

In situation 2), we have

\omega=6.04 rev/s \cdot 2\pi = 37.9 rad/s

r = 0.900 m

So the speed of the ball is

v=(37.9 rad/s)(0.900 m)=34.1 m/s

So, the ball has greater speed when rotating at 6.04 rev/s.

(b) 1561 m/s^2

The centripetal acceleration of the ball is given by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where

v is the speed

r is the distance of the ball from the centre of the trajectory

For situation 1),

v = 30.6 m/s

r = 0.600 m

So the centripetal acceleration is

a=\frac{(30.6 m/s)^2}{0.600 m}=1561 m/s^2

(c) 1292 m/s^2

For situation 2 we have

v = 34.1 m/s

r = 0.900 m

So the centripetal acceleration is

a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{(34.1 m/s)^2}{0.900 m}=1292 m/s^2

Guillaume puts a bottle of soft drink in a refrigerator and leaves it there until its temperature has dropped 15.1 K.
Zarrin [17]

Answer: (a) The magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is 15.1^{o}C.

(b) The magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.2^{o}F.

Explanation:

(a)  Expression for change in temperature is as follows.

        |\Delta T| = |x - y|K

                         = 15.1 K

                    = |(x - 273.15) - (y - 273.15)|^{o}C

                    = |x - y|^{o}C

                    = 15.1^{o}C

Therefore, the magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is 15.1^{o}C.

(b)  Change in temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows.

           F = 1.8C + 32

          C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}

Since,   K = C + 273

or,    \Delta K = \Delta C = \frac{\Delta F}{1.8}

         \Delta F = 1.8 \Delta K

                      = 1.8 (15.1)

                      = 27.18^{o}F

or,                  = 27.2^{o}F

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.2^{o}F.

Q1. Helmut rides 5km in 2h on his bike. His speed was *
baherus [9]

Answer:

Speed of bike = 2.5 km/h

Distance travel = 1,000 km (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Distance cover by Helmut = 5 km

Time taken = 2 hour

Find:

Speed of bike

Computation:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed of bike = 5 / 2

Speed of bike = 2.5 km/h

Given:

Speed of plane = 250 km/h

time taken = 3 hr 58 min = 3.967 hr

Find:

Distance travel

Computation:

Distance = Speed x time

Distance travel = 250 x 3.967

Distance travel = 991.669

Distance travel = 1,000 km (Approx.)

A golf ball is hit with a golf club. While the ball flies through the air, which forces act on the ball? Neglect air resistance.
34kurt

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the equation related to the Gravitational Force, the equation describes that

F = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth (or Bigger star)

m = Mass of Object  (or smallest star)

r = Radius

From the statement we know that once the impact is made, the golf ball is subjected to the forces that are exerted in nature. Since the air resistance, which would represent the drag force, is ignored. Only the forces related to gravity remain.

The gravitational force carries 'pushes' or 'attracts' the body towards the earth, while the speed decreases as it reaches its maximum height.

When the ball has reached its maximum height only the force of gravity begins to act on it, generating the attraction to the earth in parabolic motion.

Therefore the correct answer is B.
