Answer:

ω=6684.51 rpm

Explanation:

r= 30cm= 0.3m

a= 15000gs (convert to m/s^{2}

1g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

a= 15000 *9.8 = 147000 m/s^{2}

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

147000 = \frac{v^{2} }{0.3}

147000*0.3 = v^{2}

44100 = v^{2}

√44100 = v

210m/s  = v

v=210m/s (linear velocity)

we will convert this to angular velocity

ω=\frac{v}{r}  

ω= 210/0.3

ω= 700 rads^{-1}

we will convert this to rev per minute

1rad per second = 9.5493 rev per minute

ω= 700*9.5493

ω=6684.51 rpm

When it comes to optics, Snell's law is the basic formula to be used. If you notice, when light hits the water, the light does not travel in the same direction. After, it hits the water, it changes in angle. Light becomes refracted. This is observed when your hands tend to become bigger if you place it underwater. The formula for Snell's Law is

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂sin θ₂, where n is the index of refraction. This depends on the type of medium. For example, for air, n=1. The parameters θ₁ is the angle of incidence, and θ₂ is the angle of refraction. Critical angle is the incident angle needed so that the refract angle is 90°. So, modifying the equation:

n₁ sin θcrit = n₂sin 90°, since sin 90°=1,
sin θcrit = n₂/n₁
θcrit = sin ⁻¹ (n₂/n₁)

Since liquid comes first before glass, n₁=1.75 and n₂=1.52. Substituting,
θcrit = sin ⁻¹ (1.52/1.75)
θcrit = 60.29°

Blood plasma volume for adults is about 3.1 liters. It has a density of 1.020 gml. How many pounds of blood plasma are in your b
kari74 [83]

Answer:

mass is 6.97 pounds

Explanation:

given data

volume = 3.1 liters

density = 1.020 g/ml = 1.02 kg/l

to find out

How many pounds of blood plasma

solution

we know mass formula from density that is

density = mass / volume

so

mass = density × volume    ...............1

so put all value to get mass

mass = 1.02 × 3.1

mass = 3.162 kg

mass = 3.162  × 2.205 pounds

so mass is 6.97 pounds

Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s and a speed of 42.0 m/s.
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Force, |F| = 2100 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s, \dfrac{m}{t}=50\ kg/s

Initial speed, v = 42 m/s

The momentum is reduced to zero, final speed, v = 0

The relation between the force and the momentum is given by :

F=\dfrac{p}{t}

F=\dfrac{mv}{t}

F=50\ kg/s\times 42\ m/s

|F| = 2100 N

So, the magnitude of the force exerted on the wall is 2100 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

inessss [21]

If the vertical component is 29.6 m/s down, and the horizontal component
is 54.8 m/s parallel to the surface, then the magnitude of the slanty vector is

   √(29.6² + 54.8²) = √(876.16 + 3003.04) = √3879.2  =  62.28 m/s .

That's 139 mph !  Wow !

What travels faster than anything anything else in the universe?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The announcement he had made promised to overturn our understanding of the Universe. If the data gathered by 160 scientists working on the project were correct, the unthinkable had been observed. Particles – in this case, neutrinos – had travelled faster than light.
