A meandering stream has a single channel that winds snakelike through its valley, so that the distance 'as the stream flows' is greater than 'as the crow flies. ' As water flows around these curves, the outer edge of water is moving faster than the inner.

uniform disk with mass 40.0 kg and radius 0.200 m is pivoted at its center about a horizontal, frictionless axle that is station

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tangential velocity is $v= 0.868 m/s$

The magnitude of the resultant acceleration at that point is $a = 4.057 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the uniform disk is $m_d = 40.0kg$

The radius of the uniform disk is $R_d = 0.200m$

The force applied on the disk is $F_d = 30.0N$

Generally the angular speed i mathematically represented as

$w = \sqrt{2 \alpha \theta}$

Where $\theta$ is the angular displacement given from the question as

$\theta = 0.2000 rev = 0.2000 rev * \frac{2 \pi \ rad }{1 rev}$

$=1.257\ rad$

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of \ inertia} = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}$

The moment of inertial is mathematically represented as

$I = \frac{1}{2} m_dR^2_d$

Substituting values

$I = 0.5 * 40 * 0.200^2$

$= 0.8kg \cdot m^2$

Considering the equation for angular acceleration

$\alpha = \frac{torque }{moment \ of \ inertia} = \frac{F_d * R_d}{I}$

Substituting values

$\alph$ $\alpha = \frac{(30.0)(0.200)}{0.8}$

$= 7.5 rad/s^2$

Considering the equation for angular velocity

$w = \sqrt{2 \alpha \theta}$

Substituting values

$w =\sqrt{2 * (7.5) * 1.257}$

$= 4.34 \ rad/s$

The tangential velocity of a given point on the rim is mathematically represented as

$v = R_d w$

Substituting values

$= (0.200)(4.34)$

$v= 0.868 m/s$

The radial acceleration at hat point is mathematically represented as

$\alpha_r = \frac{v^2}{R}$

$= \frac{0.868^2}{0.200^2}$

$= 3.7699 \ m/s^2$

The tangential acceleration at that point is mathematically represented as

$\alpha _t = R \alpha$

Substituting values

$\alpha _t = (0.200) (7.5)$

$= 1.5 m/s^2$

The magnitude of resultant acceleration at that point is

$a = \sqrt{\alpha_r ^2+ \alpha_t^2 }$

Substituting values

$a = \sqrt{(3.7699)^2 + (1.5)^2}$

$a = 4.057 m/s^2$

n deep space, sphere A of mass 47 kg is located at the origin of an x axis and sphere B of mass 110 kg is located on the axis at

Volgvan

Answer:

a)-1.014x $10^{-7$ J

b)3.296 x $10^{-7$ J

Explanation:

For Sphere A:

mass 'Ma'= 47kg

xa= 0

For sphere B:

mass 'Mb'= 110kg

xb=3.4m

a)the gravitational potential energy is given by

$U_{i$ = -GMaMb/ d

$U_{i$ = - 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 47 x 110/ 3.4 => -1.014x $10^{-7$ J

b) at d= 0.8m (3.4-2.6) and $U_{i$ =-1.014x $10^{-7$ J

The sum of potential and kinetic energies must be conserved as the energy is conserved.

$K_{i$ + $U_{i$ = $K_{f$ + $U_{f$

As sphere starts from rest and sphere A is fixed at its place, therefore $K_{i$ is zero

$U_{i$ = $K_{f$ + $U_{f$

The final potential energy is

$U_{f$ = - GMaMb/d

Solving for ' $K_{f$ '

$K_{f$ = $U_{i$ + GMaMb/d => -1.014x $10^{-7$ + 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 47 x 110/ 0.8

$K_{f$ = 3.296 x $10^{-7$ J

Skin is the main barrier between internal organs and the outside environment. The outer layer of skin is composed mostly of epit

vagabundo [1.1K]

The characteristic of epithelial cells that makes them ideal for providing this type of protection is that the cells are packed tightly together.
Skin, the body's largest organ,is our first and best defense against external aggressors. The many layers work hard to protect us, however when its condition is compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired.

A vacuum cleaner produces sound with a measured sound level of 75.0 dB. (a) What is the intensity of this sound in W/m2? W/m2 (b

jonny [76]

Answer:

Part a)

$I = 3.16 \times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Part b)

$P_o = 0.162 Pa$

Explanation:

Part a)

Level of sound = 75 dB

now we know that

$L = 10 Log\frac{I}{I_0}$

here we know that

$I_0 = 10^{-12} W/m^2$

now we have

$75 = 10 Log(\frac{I}{10^{-12}})$

$I = 3.16 \times 10^{-5} W/m^2$

Part b)

Intensity of sound wave is given as

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho A^2\omega^2 c$

here we know that

$A = \frac{P_o}{Bk}$

so we have

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho(\frac{P_o}{Bk})^2\omega^2 c$

$I = \frac{1}{2}\rho P_o^2 \frac{c^3}{B^2}$

now we know

$\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$

$c = 340 m/s$

$B = 1.4 \times 10^5 Pa$

now we have

$3.16 \times 10^{-5} = \frac{1}{2}(1.2)P_o^2\frac{340^3}{(1.4\times 10^5)^2}$

$P_o = 0.162 Pa$

I need help

Gala2k [10]

The energy of the wave will decrease.

The energy of a wave is given as

E = h f

where E = energy of waver

h = plank's constant

f = frequency of the wave.

From the formula , we see that the energy of the wave is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave. hence as the frequency of the wave decrease, the energy of the wave will decrease.
