Nicholas Copernicus correctly assumed that the planets revolved around the sun but he incorrectly assumed that the planets followed a perfect circle orbit around the sun. It was later on discovered by Johannes Kepler that the planets moved around the sun following an elliptical orbit.

A record player turntable initially rotating at 3313 rev/min is braked to a stop at a constant rotational acceleration. The turn
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a. 16 s b. -1.866 kJ

Explanation:

a. Since the initial rotational speed ω₀= 3313 rev/min = 3313/60 × 2π rad/s = 346.94 rad/s. Its rotational speed becomes ω₁ = 0.75ω₀ in time t = 4 s.

We find it rotational acceleration using α = (ω₁ - ω₀)/t = (0.75ω₀ - ω₀)/t = ω₀(0.75 - 1)/t = -0.25ω₀/t = (-0.25 × 346.94 rad/s)/4 s = -21.68 rad/s².

Since the turntable stops at ω = 0, the time it takes to stop is gotten from

ω = ω₀ + αt and t = (ω - ω₀)/α = (0 - 346.94 rad/s)/-21.68 rad/s² = (-346.94/-21.68) s = 16 s.

So it takes the turntable 16 s to stop.

b. The workdone by the turntable to stop W equals its rotational kinetic energy change.

So, W = 1/2Iω² - 1/2Iω₀² = 1/2 × 0.031 kgm² × 0² - 1/2 × 0.031 kgm² × (346.94 rad/s)² = 0 - 1865.7 J = -1865.7 J = -1.8657 kJ ≅ -1.866 kJ

The record time for a Tour de France cyclist to ascend the 1100-m-high Alpe d'Huez is 37.5 min. The rider and his bike had a mas
Leni [432]

Answer

given,

height of Alpe d'Huez =  1100-m

time = 37.5 min

mass of the rider and his bike = 65 Kg

the metabolic power to ride = 700 W

U = m g y

U = 65 x 9.8 x 1100

U = 700700 J

since efficiency is 25%

E_{chem} = \dfrac{U}{e}

E_{chem} = \dfrac{700700}{0.25}

E_{chem} = 2802800

E_{chem} = \dfrac{2802800}{4.19 \time 10^3}

E_{chem} =668.9\ cal

b) P = \dfrac{E_{chem}}{t}

P = \dfrac{2802800}{37.5\times 60\ s}

P = 1245.68 W

kompoz [17]
<span>b. less climatic variation between the summer and winter seasons in the middle and high latitudes

As the tilt becomes higher (approaches 24 degrees) there is greater variation between the summer and winter months, due to the fact that the tilt toward the sun in the summer and away from the sun in the winter are more pronounced. </span>
