Rw/Ra = MA

18cm/2cm= MA

MA = 9

This means that Fi is 1/9 of the force applied to the axil. The distance travelled by Rw is 9 times more than Ri is that you move 9 times more when turning the wheel using Rw.

Put more simply

Rw/Ra = Fa/Fw

Rw = Radius of the wheel
Ra = Radius of the axil
Fa = Force delivered on the axil
Fw = Force delivered by the wheel

A 1200-kg station wagon is moving along a straight highway at Another car, with mass 1800 kg and speed has its center of mass 40

taurus [48]

Answer:

Center of mass lies 24 m in front of center of mass of second wagon.

Explanation:

Suppose A 1200 kg station wagon is moving along a straight highway at 12.0 m/s. Another car with mass 1800 kg and speed 20.0 m/s.

Given that,

Mass of first wagon = 1200 kg

Mass of second wagon = 180 kg

Distance = 40 m

We need to calculate the position of the center of mass of the system

Using formula of center mass

$x_{cm}=\dfrac{m_{1}x_{1}+m_{2}x_{2}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}$

$x_{cm}=\dfrac{1200\times0+1800\times40}{1200+1800}$

$x_{cm}=24\ m$

Hence, Center of mass lies 24 m in front of center of mass of second wagon.

a wave is described by where x is in meters, y is in centimeters and t is in seconds. The angular frequency is

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Complete Question

A wave is described by y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t), where x is in meters, y is in centimetres and t is in seconds. The angular wave frequency is

Answer:

The value is $w = 10 \ rad /s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The equation describing the wave is y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Generally the sinusoidal equation representing the motion of a wave is mathematically represented as

$y(x,t) = Asin(kx + wt )$

Where w is the angular frequency

Now comparing this equation with that given we see that

$w = 10 \ rad /s$
