Answer:

- 273.77 rad/s^2

Explanation:

fo = 3800 rev/min = 3800 / 60 rps = 63.33 rps

f = 0

ωo = 2 π fo = 2 x 3.14 x 63.33 = 397.71 rad/s

ω = 2 π f = 0

θ = 46 revolutions = 46 x 2π radian = 288.88 radian

Let α be the angular acceleration of the centrifuge

Use third equation of motion for rotational motion

$\omega^{2}=\omega _{0}^{2}+2\alpha \theta$

$0^{2}=397.71^{2}+2 \times \alpha \times 288.88$

α = - 273.77 rad/s^2

Un pendul cu arc oscileaza cu frecventa de 0,25Hz. Cite oscilatii efectueaza acest pendul timp de 10s?

vodka [1.7K]

Given:

The frequency of the pendulum ( f) = 0.25 Hz.

Total time (t) = 10 s

Concept: Frequency means, the number of oscillation in one second.

Time period is the required time by pendulum to complete one oscillation.

∵ In 1.0 second, number of oscillations = 0.25

∴ In 10.0 second, number of oscillations = (0.25 ×10.0) / 1.0 = 2.5

Hence, the required number of oscillation = 2.5

At the lowest point in a vertical dive (radius = 0.58 km), an airplane has a speed of 300 km/h which is not changing. Determine

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration is $a = 11.97 \ m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius is $r = 0.58 \ km = 0.58 * 1000 = 580 \ m$

The speed is $v = 300\ km /hr = \frac{300 *1000}{1 * 3600 } = 83.33 \ m/s$

The centripetal acceleration of the pilot is mathematically represented as

$a = \frac{v^2 }{r}$

substituting values

$a = \frac{(83.33)^2 }{580}$

$a = 11.97 \ m/s^2$

A 1400 kg aircraft going 40 m/s collides with a 1500 kg aircraft that is parked and they stick together after the collision and

Leni [432]

Answer:

67.6 m

Explanation:

For this problem, we just need to analyze the motion of the two planes after the collision.

The two planes stick together and move with a velocity of

u = 19.3 m/s

The problem tells us that they skid until they stop: so, their final velocity is

v = 0

Since the velocity is not constant, this means that they are accelerating.

We also know that they skid for a time of

t = 7 s

Therefore, we can find their stopping distance using the following suvat equation

$s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t$

And substituting, we find

$s=(\frac{0+19.3}{2})(7)=67.6 m$

A 13.5 μF capacitor is connected to a power supply that keeps a constant potential difference of 24.0 V across the plates. A pie

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitance of the capacitor = 13.5μF

Voltage across plate is 24V

Dielectric constant k=3.55.

a. Energy in capacitor is given by

E=1/2CV^2

We want to calculate energy without the dielectric substance

Given that C=13.5 μF and V=24V

The capacitance give is with dielectric so we need to remove it

C=kCo

Co=C/k

Then the Co=13.5μF/3.55

Co=3.803μF

Then

E=(1/2)×3.803×10^-6×24^2

E=1.1×10^-3J

E=1.1mJ

b. Energy in capacitor is given by

E=1/2CV^2

The capacitance given is with a dielectric, so we are going to apply it direct.

Given that C=13.5 μF and V=24V

Then

E=(1/2)×13.5×10^-6×24^2

E=3.89×10^-3J

E=3.9mJ

c. The energy without dielectric is 1.1mJ and the energy with dielectric is 3.9mJ

The energy increase when the dielectric material is added

d. Dielectrics in capacitors serve three purposes: to keep the conducting plates from coming in contact, allowing for smaller plate separations and therefore higher capacitances;

Therefore, Since dielectric allow higher capacitance, and energy of a capacitor is directly proportional to the capacitance, then the higher the capacitance the higher the energy.
