Pepsi [2]

Answer:

(a) 181.05 m/s²

(b) 13.2°

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the circle (R) = 0.610 m

Angular acceleration (α) = 67.6 rad/s²

Angular speed (ω) = 17.0 rad/s

(a)

Radial acceleration of the ball is given as:

a_r=\omega^2R

Plug in the given values and solve for a_r. This gives,

a_r=(17.0\ rad/s)^2\times (0.610\ m)\\\\a_r=289\times 0.610\ m/s^2\\\\a_r=176.29\ m/s^2

Now, tangential acceleration is given by the formula:

a_t=R\alpha

Plug in the given values and solve for a_t. This gives,

a_t=(0.610\ m)(67.6\ rad/s^2)\\\\a_t=41.236\ m/s^2

Now, the magnitude of total acceleration is given as the square root of the sum of the squares of tangential and centripetal accelerations. Therefore,

a_{Total}=\sqrt{(a_r)^2+(a_t)^2}

Plug in the given values and solve for total acceleration, a_{Total}. This gives,

a_{Total}=\sqrt{(176.29)^2+(41.236)^2}\\\\a_{Total}=181.05\ m/s^2

Therefore, the magnitude of total acceleration is 181.05 m/s².

(b)

Angle of total acceleration relative to radial direction is given by the formula:

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{a_t}{a_r})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{41.236}{176.29})\\\\\theta=13.2\°

Therefore, the total acceleration makes an angle of 13.2° relative to radial direction.

Is work being done on a barbell when a weight lifter is holding the barbell<br> over his head?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Because in order for work to be done on an object, the object must be moving. Why isn't work being done on a barbell when a weight lifter is holding the barbell over his head? Work is maximized when force is applied in the same direction that the object is moving. ... In order to do work faster, more_is required.

The objective lens and the eyepiece of a telescope are spaced 85 cm apart. If the eyepiece is123 D what is the total magnificati
dedylja [7]

Answer:

The magnification would be "103.55". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Distance between lens and eyepiece,

L = 85 cm

Eyepiece is,

= 123 D

Now,

The refractive power of eye piece will be:

⇒ \frac{1}{f_e}=123D

   f_e=\frac{1}{123D}

   f_e=0.813 \ cm

The length of the telescope will be:

⇒ L=f_0+f_e

⇒ f_0=L-f_e

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =85-0.813

⇒     =84.187 \ cm

Now,

The magnification of the telescope will be:

⇒ M=\frac{f_0}{f_e}

⇒      =\frac{84.187}{0.813}

⇒      =103.55
