Dario, a prep cook at an Italian restaurant, spins a salad spinner and observes that it rotates 20.0 times in 5.00 seconds and t

hen stops spinning it. The salad spinner rotates 6.00 more times before it comes to rest. Assume that the spinner slows down with constant angular acceleration. What is the angular acceleration of the salad spinner as it slows down in d/s^2?

Answer:

-480.1°/s²

Explanation:

The angular acceleration (α) can be calculated using the following equation:          

\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2} - \omega_{0}^{2}}{2*\Delta \theta}                                

<u>Where:</u>

\omega_{f}: is the final angular speed = 0  

\omega_{0}: is the initial angular speed  

Δ\theta_: is the angular displacement  

The initial angular speed (ω₀) can be calculated as follows:

\omega_{0} = \frac{\theta_{0}}{t}

Where t is the time = 5.00 s

\omega_{0} = \frac{\theta_{0}}{t} = \frac{20 rev*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}}{5 s} = 25.13 rad/s    

Now, we can find the angular acceleration:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2} - \omega_{0}^{2}}{2*\Delta \theta} = - \frac{(25.13 rad/s)^{2}}{2*(6 rev*(\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}))} = - 8.38 rad/s^{2}

\alpha = -8.38 rad/s^{2}*\frac{360 ^\circ}{2\pi rad} = -480.1 ^\circ/s^{2}  

Therefore, the angular acceleration is -480.1°/s².

I hope it helps you!

Answer:

-\frac{8\pi}{3}rad/s^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to apply the concept related to Angular Acceleration. We can find it through the equation

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha\theta

Where for definition,

\omega_i = \frac{\theta}{t}

The number of revolution (\theta)was given by 20 times, then

\omega_i = \frac{20*2pi}{5}

\omega = 8\pi rad/s

We know as well that the salad rotates 6 more times, therefore in angle measurements that is

\theta = 6*2\pi rad = 12\pi rad

The cook at the end stop to spin, then using our first equation,

0-8\pi = 2\alpha (12\pi)

re-arrange to solve\alpha ,

\alpha = \frac{-8\pi}{2*12\pi}

\alpha = -\frac{8\pi}{3}rad/s^2

We can know find the required time,

\omega_f-\omega_i = \alpha t

Re-arrange to find t, and considering that \omega_f=0

t= \frac{\omega_i}{\alpha}

t=\frac{-8\pi}{-8\pi/3}

t=3s

Therefore take for the salad spinner to come to rest is 3 seconds with acceleration of -\frac{8\pi}{3}rad/s^2

What is the source of all mechanical waves?
frutty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Vibration.

Explanation:

Mechanical waves is formed by the oscillation of matter and therefore transfer energy from one medium to the other. Unlike electromagnetic waves, mechanical waves need some medium to propagate. It requires an initial energy input and thus carries this energy when it propagates. There are three types of mechanical waves namely transverse waves, longitudinal waves and surface waves. Examples of such waves are sound waves, water waves and seismic waves.

. If measurements of a gas are 75L and 300 kilopascals and then the gas is measured a second time and found to be 50L, describe
julia-pushkina [17]
By Boyle's law:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

300*75 = P<span>₂*50

</span>P<span>₂*50= 300*75
</span>
P<span>₂ = 300*75/50 = 450
</span>
P<span>₂ = 450 kiloPascals.

The pressure has increased as a result of compression of gas.

Boyle's Law supports this observation.</span>

What is the relationship between the valence electrons of an atom and the chemical bonds the atom can form?​
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Valence electrons are outer shell electrons with an atom and can participate in the formation of chemical bonds. In single covalent bonds, typically both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair. The ground state of an atom is the lowest energy state of the atom.

A propeller is modeled as five identical uniform rods extending radially from its axis. The length and mass of each rod are 0.77
Vikki [24]
The formula for the rotational kinetic energy is

KE_{rot} = \frac{1}{2}(number \ of\ propellers)( I)( omega)^{2}

where I is the moment of inertia. This is just mass times the square of the perpendicular distance to the axis of rotation. In other words, the radius of the propeller or this is equivalent to the length of the rod. ω is the angular velocity. We determine I and ω first.

I=m L^{2}=(2.67 \ kg) (0.777 \ m)^{2}  =2.07459 \ kgm^{2}

ω = 573 rev/min * (2π rad/rev) * (1 min/60 s) = 60 rad/s

Then,

KE_{rot} =( \frac{1}{2} )(5)(2.07459 \ kgm^{2}) (60\ rad/s)^{2}

KE_{rot} =18,671.31 \ J
