5/137 Under the action of its stern and starboard bow thrusters, the cruise ship has the velocity vB = 1 m/s of its mass center

B and angular velocity ω = 1 deg/s about a vertical axis. The velocity of B is constant, but the angular rate ω is decreasing at 0.5 deg/s2. Person A is stationary on the dock. What velocity and acceleration of A are observed by a passenger fixed to and rotating with the ship? Treat the problem as two‐dimensional.

The image is missing, so i have attached it;

Answer:

A) V_rel = [-(2.711)i - (0.2588)j] m/s

B) a_rel = (0.8637i + 0.0642j) m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

the cruise ship velocity; V_b = 1 m/s

Angular velocity; ω = 1 deg/s = 1° × π/180 rad = 0.01745 rad/s

Angular acceleration;α = -0.5 deg/s² = 0.5 x π/180 rad = -0.008727 rad/s²

Now, let's write Velocity (V_a) at A in terms of the velocity at B(V_b) with r_ba being the position vector from B to A and relative velocity (V_rel)

Thus,

V_a = V_b + (ω•r_ba) + V_rel

Now, V_a = 0. Thus;

0 = V_b + (ω•r_ba) + V_rel

V_rel = -V_b - (ω•r_ba)

From the image and plugging in relevant values, we have;

V_rel = -1[(cos15)i + (sin15)j] - (0.01745k * -100j)

V_rel = - (cos15)i - (sin15)j - 1.745i

Note that; k x j = - i

V_rel = [-(2.711)i - (0.2588)j] m/s

B) Let's write the acceleration at A with respect to B in terms of a_b.

Thus,

a_a = a_b + (α*r_ba) + (ω(ω•r_ba)) + (2ω*v_rel) + a_rel

a_a and a_b = 0.

Thus;

0 = (α*r_ba) + (ω(ω•r_ba)) + (2ω*v_rel) + a_rel

a_rel = - (α*r_ba) - (ω(ω•r_ba)) - (2ω*v_rel)

Plugging in the relevant values with their respective position vectors, we have;

a_rel = - (-0.008727k * -100j) - (0.01745k(0.01745k * -100j)) - (2*0.01745k * [-(2.711)i - (0.2588)j])

a_rel = 0.8727i - (0.01745² x 100)j + 0.0946j - 0.009i

Note that; k x j = - i and k x i = j

Thus,simplifying further ;

a_rel = 0.8637i + 0.0642j m/s²

Are the statements of the Flat Earth Society an example of science or pseudoscience?

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Pseudoscience

Explanation:

Pseudoscience is defined as set of ideas that present themselves as a science, but they do not fulfill the criteria to be called science. In the same way, in the middle of 20th century some people called earth is flat. They challenged the spherical shape of earth. But their hypothesis does not fulfill the criteria of science. Therefore, the statements of flat earth society are pseudoscience.

Which career is most concerned with the study of radioactive isotopes?

leonid [27]

<span>The career that is most concerned with the study of radioactive isotopes is chemistry. You need to have passed AP chemistry to actually deal with the isotopes. In a quick reference, isotopes are when the atom has difference amount of neutrons, making the atomic mass differ.</span>

A uniform electric field is directed parallel to the +y axis. If a positive test charge begins at the origin and moves upward al

lukranit [14]

Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y

Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below

V = kq/y

Where k = 1/4πε0

Where V = electric potential,

k = electric constant = 9×10^9,

y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c

From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.

We have that

V = k/y

We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).

This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.

This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

A 77.0−kg short-track ice skater is racing at a speed of 12.6 m/s when he falls down and slides across the ice into a padded wal

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

-6112.26 J

Explanation:

The initial kinetic energy, $KE_i$ is given by

$KE_i=0.5mv_1^{2$ } where m is the mass of a body and $v_i$ is the initial velocity

The final kinetic energy, $KE_f$ is given by

$KE_f=0.5mv_f^{2}$ where $v_f$ is the final velocity

Change in kinetic energy, $\triangle KE$ is given by

$\triangle KE=KE_f-KE_i=0.5mv_f^{2}-0.5mv_1^{2}=0.5m(v_f^{2}-v_i^{2})$

Since the skater finally comes to rest, the final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for $v_f$ and 12.6 m/s for $v_i$ and 77 Kg for m we obtain

$\triangle KE=0.5*77*0^{2}-0.5*77*(0^{2}-12.6^{2})=-6112.26 J$

From work energy theorem, work done by a force is equal to the change in kinetic energy hence for this case work done equals <u>-6112.26 J</u>

Calculate the radiative and collisional energy losses (in keV/micron) for a 1.9 MeV electron in lead and determine the rad./coll

Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

During an energy transfer, the collision loss for an electron can be determined by using the formula:

$Q = \dfrac{4mME }{(m+M)^2}$

However; from the total stopping power & power loss of the electron;

$\dfrac{radiational \ energy \ loss}{colisional \ energy \ loss } = \dfrac{ZE}{800}$

where;

Z = atomic no. for lead = 82

E = 1.9 MeV

∴

radiational energy loss = collisional energy loss $=\dfrac{82 \times 1.9}{800}$

= 0.19475

b)

Normally, the traditional lead shielding in its pure shape contains high brittleness. However, the functionality of this carbon group chemical element is useful for protection because it has an excessive density.

Initially, the conventional lead protection however reduces the mild clarity at the same moment as plexiglass is useful for light transmittance and readability.

Moreover, the traditional lead with its high density and thickness reduces observation features, in the meantime, the plexiglass is a whole lot higher than the stated.

Finally, plexiglass contains a high dimensional balance with an excessive dielectric constant.
