At a certain instant, a rotating turbine wheel of radius RR has angular speed ωω (measured in rad/srad/s). What must be the magn
jonny [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnitude of the acceleration makes an angle of 30° with the tangential velocity.

Resolving the acceleration to tangential and radial acceleration

at = aCos30 = √3a/2

ar = aSin30 = ½a

a = 2•ar

Then, the tangential acceleration is the linear acceleration, so the relationship between the tangential acceleration and angular acceleration is given as:

at = Rα

Then, α = at/R

since at = √3a/2

Then, α = √3 at/2R, equation 1

The radial acceleration is given as

ar = ω²R

Note that, at² + ar² = a²

at = √(a²-ar²)

Back to equation 1

α = √3 at/2R

α = √3√(a²-ar²)/2R

α = √3√(a²-(w²R)²)/2R

α = √3(a²-w⁴R²) / 2R

Also, a = 2•ar = 2w²R

Then,

α = √3((2w²R)²-w⁴R²) / 2R

α = √3(4w⁴R²-w⁴R²) / 2R

α = √3(3w⁴R²) / 2R

α = √9w⁴R² / 2R

α = 3w²R / 2R

α = 3w²/2

In Newtons first law of motion how is an object at rest affected
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force.

Explanation:

Meaning that if an object is just sitting somewhere unless something else causes it to move it's not going anywhere.
