Speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Time to make the trip = 494 sec

Distance = (speed) x (time)

Distance = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) x (494 s)

Distance = 1,482 x 10⁸ meters

<em>Distance = 1.482 x 10¹¹ meters</em>

Distance = 1.482 x 10⁸ kilometers

At the moment a hot cake is put in a cooler, the difference between the cakes and the cooler's

hram777 [196]

Answer: D(t)= 50(4/5)^t

Explanation: If 1/5 of the temperature difference is lost each minute, that means 4/5 of the difference remains each minute. So each minute, the temperature difference is multiplied by a factor of 4/5 (or 0.8).

If we start with the initial temperature difference, 50° Celsius, and keep multiplying by 4/5, this function gives us the temperature difference t minutes after the cake was put in the cooler.

A high-speed flywheel in a motor is spinning at 450 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 40.0 kg and

alexira [117]

Answer:

A) $\omega_f=17.503\ rad.s^{-1}$

B) $t=55.6822\ s$

C) $\theta=1312\ rad$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of flywheel, $m=40\ kg$

diameter of flywheel, $d=0.72\ m$

rotational speed of flywheel, $N_i=450\ rpm \Rightarrow \omega_i=\frac{450\times 2\pi}{60} =15\pi\ rad.s^{-1}$

duration for which the power is off, $t_0=35\ s$

no. of revolutions made during the power is off, $\theta=180\times 2\pi=360\pi\ rad$

<u>Using equation of motion:</u>

$\theta=\omega_i.t+\frac{1}{2} \alpha.t^2$

$360\pi=15\pi\times 35+\frac{1}{2} \times \alpha\times35^2$

$\alpha=-0.8463\ rad.s^{-2}$

Negative sign denotes deceleration.

A)

Now using the equation:

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha.t$

$\omega_f=15\pi-0.8463\times 35$

$\omega_f=17.503\ rad.s^{-1}$ is the angular velocity of the flywheel when the power comes back.

B)

Here:

$\omega_f=0\ rad.s^{-1}$

Now using the equation:

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha.t$

$0=15\pi-0.8463\times t$

$t=55.6822\ s$ is the time after which the flywheel stops.

C)

Using the equation of motion:

$\theta=\omega_i.t+\frac{1}{2} \alpha.t^2$

$\theta=15\pi\times 55.68225-0.5\times 0.8463\times 55.68225^2$

$\theta=1312\ rad$ revolutions are made before stopping.

Define the physics quantity of work

umka2103 [35]

Explanation:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a specific or particular direction.

It is also the difference in the amount of energy expended in using an effort.

Work done is given as;

Work done = F x d CosФ

F is the force applied

d is the displacement

Ф is the angle

The unit of work done is in Joules.
