Helicopter blades withstand tremendous stresses. In addition to supporting the weight of a helicopter, they are spun at rapid ra

tes and experience large centripetal accelerations, especially at the tip. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration at the tip of a 4.00 m long helicopter blade that rotates at 300 rev/min. (b) Compare the linear speed of the tip with the speed of sound (taken to be 340 m/s).

NOTE: Check your formula sheet if you have one these are often there.

Ac = \frac{V^{2} }{r} = rω^2

We know r = 4.00m

but what is ω?

ω = \frac{2π}{T} = 2π*f

f is our frequency. we want it in seconds so we can divide by 60.

300/60 = 5rev/s

Ac = rω^2 = (4)(5)^2 = 100m/s

(b) Linear speed or v is equal to v = ω = (5)(4) = 20m/s
      340 / 20 = 17

      The speed of sound is 17 times faster.

NOTE: finished physics so i might be rusty and use an equation wrong. Tell me if something doesnt make sense. Im still new to this myself.

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration, a=3946.35\ m/s^2

\dfrac{v}{v'}=0.36

Explanation:

(a) The length of the helicopter blade, l = r = 4 m

Angular velocity of the blade, \omega=300\ rev/min = 31.41\ rad/s

The centripetal acceleration at the tip of the helicopter is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

Since, v=r\omega

a=\dfrac{(r\omega)^2}{r}

a=r\omega^2

a=4\times (31.41)^2

a=3946.35\ m/s^2

(b) The linear speed of the tip of helicopter blade is given by :

v=r\omega

v=4\times (31.41)

v = 125.64 m/s

If the speed of sound is taken t o be 340 m/s, v' = 340 m/s

Comparison between linear speed of the tip to the speed of sound is :

\dfrac{v}{v'}=\dfrac{125.64}{340}

\dfrac{v}{v'}=0.36

Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider the numerous pseudoscientific products and ideologies currently being marketed to the public, such as magnetic therapy,
kati45 [8]

Yes proponents of these products should be held accountable and they must be asked to inform the general public about all the pros and cons and the risk associated with these product .

<u>Explanation:</u>

Therapies like magnetic and touch generates various harmful radiation that slowly damages some organs of body. Homeopathy is different way of treating medical issues , whose effect is gradual and sometimes even doubtful that it has any effect also. Ethical issue is that all the details are not provided to people or targeted consumer or even if provided only in disguised manner so that they can not be sued later. This creates ethical issue of denial of informed choice. For the monetary benefits of such proponent life of other should not be put at risk.
