Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horses in the outer sec

tion at a distance of 2.0 m from the center. Alex decides to play it safe and chooses to sit in the inner section at a distance of 1.0 m from the center. The carousel takes 3.7 s to make each complete revolution.
a) What is Mary's angular speed %u03C9M and tangential speed vM?

b) What is Alex's angular speed %u03C9A and tangential speed vA?

Answer:

ωM = 1.7 rad/s

vM = 3.4 m/s

ωA = 1.7 rad/s

vA =  1.7  m/s

Explanation:

Calculation of the angular speed (ω)

We use the following formula for circular motion:

ω = θ / t Formula (1)

Where:

ω: angular speed (rad/s)

θ:angle that the particle travels (rad)

t: time interval (s)

Equivalence

1 revolution = 2π rad

Data

θ= 1 revolution = 2π rad

t = 3.7 s

We replace data in the formula (1):

ω = (2π rad) / (3.7s )= 1.7 rad/s

Because the angular speed depends only on the number of turns in a time interval then Mary's angular speed (ωM) is equal to Alex's angular speed (ωA).

ωM = ωA = 1.7 rad/s

Calculation of the  tangential speed (v)

We use the following formula for circular motion:

v = ω*r  Formula (2)

Where:

v : tangential speed (m/s)

ω: angular speed ( rad/s)

r  : radius of the circular path (m)

Data

ωM = ωM = ω= 1.7 rad/s

rM = 2m  : Mary's circular path radius

rA = 1m :  Alex's circular path radius

We apply the formula (2) to calculate v:

vM = ω* rM = (1.7) (2) = 3.4 m/s

vA = ω* rA = (1.7) (1) =  1.7  m/s

If it takes 100 N to get a 10 kg object to accelerate at 10m/s/s, how much force will it take to get a 20 kg object to accelerat
yan [13]

Answer: C) 200 N

Explanation:

The force F is defined as:

F=m.a

Where:

m=20 kg is the mass of the object

a=10 m/s^{2} is the acceleration

Then:

F=(20 kg)(10 m/s^{2})

Finally:

F=200 N

Hence, the correct option is C.

A slinky forms it’s third harmonic standing wave when the input frequency is 24 Hz. What is the fundamental frequency of the sli
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: The fundamental frequency of the slinky = 8Hz

An input frequency of 28 Hz will not create a standing wave

Explanation:

Let Fo = fundamental frequency

At third harmonic,

F = 3Fo

If F = 24Hz

24 = 3Fo

Fo = 24/3 = 8Hz

If an input frequency = 28 Hz at 3rd harmonic

Let find the fundamental frequency

28 = 3Fo

Fo = 28/3

Fo = 9.33333Hz

Since Fo isn't a whole number, it can't create a standing wave
