During a testing process, a worker in a factory mounts a bicycle wheel on a stationary stand and applies a tangential resistive

force of 115 N to the tire's rim. The mass of the wheel is 1.70 kg and, for the purpose of this problem, assume that all of this mass is concentrated on the outside radius of the wheel. The diameter of the wheel is 50.0 cm. A chain passes over a sprocket that has a diameter of 9.50 cm. In order for the wheel to have an angular acceleration of 4.90 rad/s2, what force, in Newtons, must be applied to the chain? (Enter the magnitude only.) N

Answer:

616.223684211 N

Explanation:

F_r = Resistive force on the wheel = 115 N

F = Force acting on sprocket

r_2 = Radius of sprocket = 4.75 cm

r_1 = Radius of wheel = 25 cm

Moment of inertia is given by

I=mr_1^2\\\Rightarrow I=1.7\times 0.25^2\\\Rightarrow I=0.10625\ kgm^2

Torque

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.10625\times 4.9\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.520625\ Nm

Torque is given by

\tau=Fr_2-F_rr_1\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{\tau+F_rr_1}{r_2}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{0.520625+115\times 0.25}{0.0475}\\\Rightarrow F=616.223684211\ N

The force on the chain is 616.223684211 N

The half-life of Co-55 is 175 hours. How much of a 4000 g of Cobalt-55 sample would be left after 525 hours?
Harrizon [31]

We know that whatever amount we start with, half of it decays and forms atoms of other elements in 175 hours.  So in order to figure out how much is left after 525 hours, we'll need to know how many half-lifes pass in that amount of time.

Well, (525 divided by 175) is exactly 3 half-lifes.  So this will be easy.

-- After 1 half-life . . .

. . . . . 50% decays, 50% is still there.

-- After the 2nd half-life . . .

. . . . . (half of the leftover 50%) = another 25% decays, 25% is left.

-- After the 3rd half-life . . .

. . . . . (half of the leftover 25%) = another 12.5% decays, 12.5% is left.

12.5% of 4,000g = (0.125 x 4,000g) = <em>500 g</em> .

============================================

<u>Another way</u>:

After 1 half-life, 1/2 is left.

After 2 half-lifes, 1/4 is left.

After 3 half-lifes, 1/8 is left.

1/8 of 4,000g = (4,000g/8) = <em>500 g </em>.

The force of the added water produces a torque on the dam. In a simple model, if the torque due to the water were enough to caus
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The appropriate response is "\tau=\frac{1}{6} PgLh^3". A further explanation is described below.

Explanation:

The torque (\tau) produced by the force on the dam will be:

⇒  d \tau=XdF

On applying integration both sides, we get

⇒  \tau = \int_{0}^{a}x pgL(h-x)dx

⇒     = pgL\int_{0}^{h}(h-x)dx

⇒     =pgL[\frac{h^3}{2} -\frac{h^3}{3} ]

⇒     =\frac{1}{6} PgLh^3

If the resistance is not changed but the voltage is increased, what happens to the current
julsineya [31]

We know that According to Ohm's Law :

Current passing through a Conductor is directly proportional to the Voltage over a given Resistance.

⇒ V ∝ I

⇒ V = I × R

If Resistance is not changed and Voltage is increased, Based on Ohm's law we can conclude that Current flowing will also increase, because Voltage is directly proportional to Current.

Which best explains why people see carrots as orange
Andru [333]

Beta Carotene is the reason why a carrot is orange. Carotene is a color pigment that is found in large quantities in carrots and it has health benefits as well. The main health benefit of carotene is that our body converts it into vitamin A which is essential.
