A bicycle pedal is pushed straight downwards by a foot with a 16 Newton force. The shaft of the pedal is 20 cm long. If the shaf

t is π/5 radians past horizontal, what is the magnitude of the torque about the point where the shaft is attached to the bicycle?

Answer:

2.56 N*m

Explanation:

Torque is force times distance, with the force being perpendicular to the distance.

If the force and distance are not perpendicular, a projection of one of the two must be used instead.

We will use the projection of the length of the shaft upon a perpendicular of the force applied. This will have a magnitude of:

Lh = L * cos(a) (I name it Lh because it is a horizontal projection in this case)

Lh = 0.2 * cos(π/5) = 0.16 m

Then:

T = f * d

T = 16 * 0.16 = 2.56 N*m

A glass windowpane in a home is 0.62 cm thick and has dimen- sions of 1.0 m 3 2.0 m. On a certain day, the indoor temper- ature
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermal conductivity of glass pane = .8 W / m K

For conduction of heat , the formula is as follows

Q = \frac{kA(T_1 - T_2 )t}{d }   ; Q is heat conducted in time t by a medium of thickness d , area of cross section A and ( T₁ - T₂ ) is the temperature difference .

Putting the values in the equation

Q = \frac{.8 \times32\times(25 - 0 )\times1}{.0062 }

= 103225.8 W

b )

energy lost in one day

= 103225.8 x 24 x 60 x 60

= .89187 x 10¹⁰ J .

Why does the air pressure inside the tires of a car increase when the car is driven?
Brrunno [24]
Its because particles of air inside it are moving faster and making more pressure plus there is a pressure from the street.

An object has a position given by the radius vector r = [2.0 m + (3.00 m/s)t](i)+ [3.0 m - (2.00 m/s^2)t^2](j). Here (i) and (j)
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The speed of the object is (3i - 4.00tj)m/s

The magnitude of the acceleration is 4.00m/s²

Explanation:

Given - position vector;

r = (2.0 + 3.00t)i + (3.0 - 2.00t²)j       -------------------(i)

To get the speed vector (v), take the first derivative of equation (i) with respect to time t as follows;

v = \frac{dr}{dt}

 v = \frac{d[(2.0 + 3.00t)i + (3.0 - 2.00t^2)j]  }{dt}  

v  = 3i - 4.00tj      ------------------------(ii)

To get the acceleration vector (a), take the first derivative of the speed vector in equation(ii) as follows;

a = \frac{dv}{dt}

a = \frac{d(3i - 4.00tj)}{dt}

a = -4.00j

The magnitude of the acceleration |a| is therefore given by

|a| = |-4.00|

|a| = 4.00 m/s²

In conclusion;

the speed of the object is (3i - 4.00tj)m/s

the magnitude of the acceleration is 4.00m/s²

The escape velocity at the surface of Earth is approximately 11 km/s. What is the mass, in units of ME (the mass of the Earth),
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:11 km/s

Explanation:

Given

Escape velocity at the surface of earth is 11 km/s

Escape velocity is given by

V_e=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Escape velocity at the surface of earth

11=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}--------------------1

If Escape velocity is three times and the radius is also the three times

V_e_2=\sqrt{\frac{2G(3M)}{3R}}

V_e_2=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=V_e

i.e. V_e_2=11 km/s
