A "swing" ride at a carnival consists of chairs that are swung in a circle by 19.6 m cables attached to a vertical rotating pole

, as the drawing shows. Suppose the total mass of a chair and its occupant is 250 kg. (a) Determine the tension in the cable attached to the chair. (b) Find the speed of the chair.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the cable is 19.6 m, l = 19.6 m

Let us assume that the angle with vertical rotating pole is 62.5 degrees.

The total mass of a chair and its occupant is 250 kg.

(a) Let T is the tension in the cable attached to the chair. So,

T\cos\theta=mg\\\\T=\dfrac{mg}{\cos\theta}\\\\T=\dfrac{250\times 9.8}{\cos(62.5)}\\\\T=5305.91\ N

(b) The centripetal acceleration is balanced by :

\dfrac{v^2}{r}=g\tan\theta\\\\v=\sqrt{Rg\tan\theta} \\\\v=\sqrt{l\sin\theta g\tan\theta}\\\\v=\sqrt{19.6\times \sin(62.5)9.8\times \tan(62.5)}\\\\v=18.09\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

radius, R = 19.6 m

mass, m = 250 kg

(a) The tension in the cable is T.

T = mg

T = 250 x 9.8

T = 2450 N

(b) Let v is the speed of the chair.

the tension force is balanced by the centripetal force.

T = mv²/r

2450 = 250 x v²/19.6

v² = 192.08

v = 13.86 m/s

Thus, the speed of the car is 13.86 m/s

When responding to sound, the human eardrum vibrates about its equilibrium position. Suppose an eardrum is vibrating with an amp
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

796.18 Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

Maximum velocity = Amplitude×Angular velocity

Therefore,

V' = A(2πf)............... Equation 1

Where V' = maximum velocity of the eardrum, A = Amplitude of vibration of the eardrum, f = frequency of the eardrum vibration, π = pie

make f the subject of the equation

f = V'/2πA................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V' = 3.6×10⁻³ m/s, A' = 7.2×10⁻⁷ m,

Constant: 3.14.

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 3.6×10⁻³/( 7.2×10⁻⁷×2×3.14)

f = 796.18 Hz

A 7.0 kg bowling ball has a moment of inertia of 2.8x10-2 kg m2, and a radius of 0.10 m. If it rolls down the lane at an angular
slega [8]

Hi there!

Angular momentum is equivalent to:

\large\boxed{L = I\omega}

L = angular momentum (kgm²/s)

I = moment of inertia (kgm²)

ω = angular velocity (rad/sec)

Plug in the given values for moment of inertia and angular speed:

L = (0.028)(40) = \boxed{1.12 kgm^2/s}

Q1. After three half-lives of an isotope, 1 billion of the original isotope's atoms still remain in a certain amount of this ele
77julia77 [94]
 <span>If 1 eighth equals 1 billion 7 eighth equals 7 billion. 

The asker of the second question needs a tutorial in radiometric dating. There is little likelihood that the daughter isotope has the same atomic weight as the parent isotope. To measure the mass isotopes doesn't tell us how many atoms of each exist. To get around that let's pretend — which will likely serve the purpose ineptly intended — that the values give an the particle ratio, 125:875. 

The original parent isotope count was 125 + 875 = 1000. The remaining parent isotope is 125/1000 or 1/8. 1/8 = (1/2)^h, where h is the number of half-lives. 

h = log (1/8) ÷ log(1/2) = 3 

And 3 half-lives • 150,000 years/half-life = 450,000 years.</span>
