Answer:

(a)0.0002778

(b)1.16\times10^{-5}

Explanation:

(a) The minute hand has a period of 60 minutes ( or 60 * 60 = 3600 seconds) for 1 circle. Its frequency per second would be

1 / 3600 = 0.0002778

(b) The hour hand has a period of 24 hours ( or 24*60 * 60 = 86400

seconds) for 1 circle. Its frequency per second would be

1 / 86400 = 1.16\times10^{-5}

The amount of gas that a helicopter uses is directly proportional to the number of hours spent flying. the helicopter flies for
igomit [66]

Answer:

The helicopter uses 35 gallons to fly for 5 hours.

Explanation:

The amount of gas that a helicopter uses for flying varies directly proportional to the number of hours spent flying.

g ∝ T

where g represents amount of gas and T time of flight.

Then,

\therefore \frac{g_1}{g_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

The helicopter files 4 hours and uses 28 gallons of fuel.

Here, g₁= 28 gallons, T₁=4 hours

g₂=?, T₂=5 hours.

\therefore \frac{g_1}{g_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

\Rightarrow \frac{28}{g_2}=\frac{4}{5}

⇒28×5= g₂×4

⇒ g₂×4=28×5

\Rightarrow g_2=\frac{28\times 5}{4}

\Rightarrow g_2=35 gallons

The helicopter uses 35 gallons to fly for 5 hours.

A car mass of 1.2 x 10 kilograms starts from rest and attains a speed of 20 meters/seconds in 5 seconds. What net force acted on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Net force on the car=F=4.8 x 10³ N

Explanation:

mass of car= 1.2 x 10³ Kg

initial velocity= Vi=0

Final velocity= Vf= 20 m/s

time = t= 5 s

Using kinematic equation,

Vf= Vi + at

20= 0 + a (5)

5 a=20

a= 20/5

a= 4 m/s²

Now force is given by F = ma

F= 1.2 x 10³ (4)

F=4.8 x 10³ N

Which has the larger kinetic energy, a 10 g bullet fired at 400 m/s or a 80 kg bowling ball rolled at 6.5 m/s ?
mixer [17]
Formulae for Kinetic energy is:
Kinetic Energy= 1/2xmassx(velocity)^2

For comparison we need to have same units,thus we convert 10g into Kg.
10g/1000=0.01Kg

Input the value of bullet in the formulae;
Kinetic Energy= 1/2x0.01kgx(400)^2
K.E=800J

Input value of the ball:
Kinetic Energy=1/2x80kgx(6.5)^2
K.E=1690J

Which means that th Energy of the ball is more than the bullet.
