A squirrel drops an acorn onto the head of an unsuspecting dog. The acorn falls 4.0\,\text m4.0m4, point, 0, start text, m, end

kirill [66]

Answer:

0.903 seconds

Explanation:

To find how many seconds the acorn fall, we can use the formula for distance travelled with constant acceleration:

D = Vo*t + a*t^2/2,

where D is the distance travelled, Vo is the inicial speed, t is the time and a is the acceleration.

In our problem:

Vo = 0,

a = g = 9.81 m/s2,

D = 4 meters.

So, we can solve the equation to find the time:

4 = 0*t +9.81*t^2/2

4.905*t^2 = 4

t^2 = 4/4.905 = 0.8155

t = 0.903 seconds

A transformer with X turns in primary coil and Y turns in secondary coil is used to change the magnitude of voltage to 240 V. Ca

Vinil7 [7]

The input voltage is 120 V and the transformer is a step up transformer due to increase in the voltage induced in the secondary coil.

<h3>Input voltage </h3>

The input voltage of the transformer is the voltage of the primary coil and it is calculated as follows;

Ns/Np = Es/Ep

where;

Ns is the number of turn in the secondary coil
Np is the number of turn in the primary coil
Es is the secondary voltage
Ep is the primary voltage

2X/X = 240/Ep

2 = 240/Ep

Ep = 240/2

Ep = 120 V

Thus, the transformer is a step up transformer due to increase in the voltage induced in the secondary coil.

The circumference of a sphere was measured to be

professor190 [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the calculation of the surface, volume and error through the differentiation of the formulas given for the calculation of these values in a circle. Our values given at the beginning are

$\phi = 76cm$

$Error (dr) = 0.5cm$

The radius then would be

$\phi = 2\pi r \\76cm = 2\pi r\\r = \frac{38}{\pi} cm$

And

$\frac{d\phi}{dr} = 2\pi \\d\phi = 2\pi dr \\0.5 = 2\pi dr$

PART A ) For the Surface Area we have that,

$A = 4\pi r^2 \\A = 4\pi (\frac{38}{\pi})^2\\A = \frac{5776}{\pi}$

Deriving we have that the change in the Area is equivalent to the maximum error, therefore

$\frac{dA}{dr} = 4\pi (2r) \\dA = 4r (2\pi dr)$

Maximum error:

$dA = 4(\frac{38}{\pi})(0.5)$

$dA = \frac{76}{\pi}cm^2$

The relative error is that between the value of the Area and the maximum error, therefore:

$\frac{dA}{A} = \frac{\frac{76}{\pi}}{\frac{5776}{\pi}}$

$\frac{dA}{A} = 0.01315 = 1.31\%$

PART B) For the volume we repeat the same process but now with the formula for the calculation of the volume in a sphere, so

$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{38}{\pi})^3$

$V = \frac{219488}{3\pi^2}$

Therefore the Maximum Error would be,

$\frac{dV}{dr} = \frac{4}{3} 3\pi r^2$

$dV = 2r^2 (2\pi dr)$

$dV = 4r^2 (\pi dr)$

Replacing the value for the radius

$dV = 4(\frac{38}{\pi})^2(0.5)$

$dV = \frac{2888}{\pi^2} cm^3$

And the relative Error

$\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{ \frac{2888}{\pi^2}}{ \frac{219488}{3\pi^2} }$

$\frac{dV}{V} = 0.03947$

$\frac{dV}{V} = 3.947\%$

Which of these systems is an oscillator? A. A barrel rolling down the hill B. A child sitting on a swing a skater falling on the

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Option B:

A child sitting on a swing.

Explanation:

When we hear the word oscillator, a good example is the pendulum bob of a grandfather clock. We can picture the motion to get a perfect understanding of its path of motion and relate it to other systems of motion in our everyday life.

An oscillator is a system that moves in such a way that it reverses its direction after a period of time. It can be seen as a "to-and-fro" motion.

From the options, a child sitting on a swing is the perfect example of an oscillating system because the child will be moving forwards and backwards, alternately reversing the direction of motion with time.
