A horizontal 810-N merry-go-round of radius 1.60 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 55 N applied tangentia

lly to the merry-go-round. Find the kinetic energy of the merry-go-round after 4.0 s. (Assume it is a solid cylinder. Also assume the force is applied at the outside edge.)

Answer:

576 joules

Explanation:

From the question we are given the following:

weight = 810 N

radius (r) = 1.6 m

horizontal force (F) = 55 N

time (t) = 4 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

where MI is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity

MI = 0.5 x m x r^2

mass = weight ÷ g = 810 ÷ 9.8 = 82.65 kg

MI = 0.5 x 82.65 x 1.6^{2}

MI = 105.8 kg.m^{2}

angular velocity (ω) = a x t

angular acceleration (a) = torque ÷ MI

where torque = F x r = 55 x 1.6 = 88 N.m

a= 88 ÷ 105.8 = 0.83 rad /s^{2}

therefore

angular velocity (ω) = a x t = 0.83 x 4 = 3.33 rad/s

K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}

K.E = 0.5 x 105.8 x 3.33^{2} = 576 joules

An airplane accelerates from a velocity of 22 m/s to 40 m/s with an acceleration of 2 m/s2. How long does it
andrey2020 [161]

The time it takes the plane to change its velocity is 9s.

<h3>What is time?</h3>

Time can be defined the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues.

To calculate the time it takes the airplane to change its velocity, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • t = (v-u)/a.......... Equation 1

Where:

  • a = Acceleration
  • v = Final velocity
  • u = Initial velocity
  • t = time

From the question,

  • v = 40 m/s
  • u = 22 m/s
  • a = 2 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation  1

  • t = (40-22)/2
  • t = 18/2
  • t = 9s

Hence, the time it takes the plane to change its velocity is 9s.

What building materials do you believe would work well to build a home in that area? Explain why you chose these materials.
Luden [163]
Depends on what the area is. If it’s a rural place, Wood is cheep & easy to build. If there’s a lot of corrosion, strong weather/hurricane, bricks.

from Wein's law

\frac{k}{ \lambda_{max} }  = T \\ \lambda_{max} =  \frac{k}{T}  \\ \lambda_{max} =  \frac{3.898 \times  {10}^{ - 3} }{4300}   \\  = 9.065 \times  {10}^{ - 7}
