Surface tension - My definition -

It's exactly what it says - The tension of a surface with a liquid (such as water), caused by the attraction of the surfaces layer ---- I hope this helps ---- I actually did research it and got some of this from a dictionary, but I changed some of it, too.... Sorry if this doesn't help :)

A wheel rotates with a constant angular acceleration of  rad/s2. During a certain time interval its angular displacement is  r

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is $\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular acceleration $\alpha=\pi\ rad/s^2$

Angular displacement $\theta=\pi\ rad$

Angular velocity $\omega =2\pi\ rad/s$

We need to calculate the angular velocity at the beginning

Using formula of angular velocity

$\alpha =\dfrac{\omega^2-\omega_{0}^2}{2\theta}$

$\omega_{0}^2=\omega^2-2\alpha\theta$

Where, $\alpha$ = angular acceleration

$\omega$ = angular velocity

Put the value into the formula

$\omega_{0}^2=(2\pi)^2-2\times\pi\times\pi$

$\omega=\sqrt{2\pi^2}$

$\omega_{0}=\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s$

Hence, The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is $\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s$ .

A basketball player can leap upward 0.43 m. how long does he remain in the air? use an acceleration due to gravity of 9.80 m/s2

MArishka [77]

From the equations of linear motion,
v² = u² + 2as where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity and a is the gravitational acceleration, and s is the displacement,
Thus, v² = u² -2gs, but v=0
hence, u² = 2gs
= 2×9.81×0.43
= 8.4366
u = √8.4366
=2.905 m/s
Hence the initial velocity is 2.905 m/s
Then using the equation v= u +gt .
Therefore, v = u -gt. (-g because the player is jumping against the gravity)
but, v = 0
Thus, u= gt
Hence, t = u/g
= 2.905/9.81
= 0.296 seconds
