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

Kamala puts on inline skates and stands facing a wall. When she pushes against the wall, she rolls backward. Why does pushing ha
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Because the force of the wall pushing on her increases.

According to Newton's third law of motion, to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the Kamala pushes the wall, the wall also pushes her. Pushing harder against the wall causes the force of the wall pushing her also increase. Thus, making her roll faster.

A submarine sends a signal and receives an echo after 5 seconds. Calculate the speed of sound if distance of object from submari
Reil [10]

speed = distance \div time
Since the sound travels from the submarine to the object AND back, it actually travelled 3625x2=7250m.

7250 \div 5 = 1450
Speed of sound: 1450m/s

padilas [110]

Answer:

 a)    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m  b)    λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

The diffraction network is described by the expression

      d sin θ= m λ

Where m corresponds to the diffraction order

Let's use trigonometry to find the breast

        tan θ = y / L

The diffraction spectrum is measured at very small angles, therefore

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

We replace

      d y / L = m λ

Let's place in the first order m = 1

Let's look for the separation of the lines (d)

     d = λ  L / y

     d = 501 10⁻⁹ 9.95 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

     d = 332.33 10⁻⁹ m

Now we can look for the wavelength of the other line

     λ  = d y / L

    λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 8.55 10⁻²/15 10⁻²

    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m

Part B

The compound wavelength B

      λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 12.15 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

      λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m
