Answer:
a) a = 0.477 m/s^2
b) u = 0.04862
Explanation:
Given:-
- The rotational speed of the turntable N = 33 rev/min
- The watermelon seed is r = 4.0 cm away from axis of rotation.
Find:-
(a) Calculate the acceleration of the seed, assuming that it does not slip. (b) What is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the seed and the turntable if the seed is not to slip
Solution:-
- First determine the angular speed (w) of the turntable.
w = 2π*N / 60
w = 2π*33 / 60
w = 3.456 rad/s
- The watermelon seed undergoes a centripetal acceleration ( α ) defined by:
α = w^2 * r
α = 3.456^2 * 0.04
α = 0.477 m / s^2
- The minimum friction force (Ff) is proportional to the contact force of the seed.
- The weight (W) of the seed with mass m acts downwards. The contact force (N) can be determined from static condition of seed in vertical direction.
N - W = 0
N = W = m*g
- The friction force of the (Ff) is directed towards the center of axis of rotation, while the centripetal force acts in opposite direction. The frictional force Ff = u*N = u*m*g must be enough to match the centripetal force exerted by the turntable on the seed.
Ff = m*a
u*m*g = m*a
u = a / g
u = 0.477 / 9.81
u = 0.04862
Answer: amplitude
Explanation: This describes the maximum amount of the displacement of a particle from it rest position. Usually, it is measured in metres
Since we are considering AM which is amplitude modulation, a technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for broadcasting information through a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is diversified in proportion to that of the message signal being broadcasted.
Adhesive.
Adhesive is the force of attraction between molecules of different kind. Liquid flows upward the wick because the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is higher than cohesive forces in the liquid.
When the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is high we have capillarity taking place. This cause the liquid to move up the wick.

The North Star, or Polaris, is the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor, the little bear (also known as the Little Dipper). As viewed by observers in the Northern Hemisphere, Polaris occupies a special place
