A bicycle wheel rotates at a constant 25 rev/min. What is true about its angular acceleration?

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is zero

Explanation:

When an object is in rotational motion, it has a certain angular velocity, which is the rate of displacement of its angular position.

This angular velocity can change or remain constant - this is given by the angular acceleration, which is:

$\alpha =\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta \omega$ is the change in angular velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time elapsed

Therefore, the angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity.

In this problem, the bicycle rotates at a constant angular velocity of

$\omega=25 rev/min$

This means that the change in angular velocity is zero:

$\Delta \omega=0$

And so, that the angular acceleration is zero:

$\alpha=0$

A 6.5 kg rock thrown down from a 120m high cliff with initial velocity 18 m/s down. Calculate

Olegator [25]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the principle of energy conservation. Which tells us that the energy of a body will always be the same regardless of where it is located. For this case we have two points, point A and point B. Point A is located at the top at 120 [m] and point B is in the middle of the cliff at 60 [m].

$E_{A}=E_{B}$

The important thing about this problem is to identify the types of energy at each point. Let's take the reference level of potential energy at a height of zero meters. That is, at this point the potential energy is zero.

So at point A we have potential energy and since a velocity of 18 [m/s] is printed, we additionally have kinetic energy.

$E_{A}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}\\E_{A}=m*g*h+\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}$

At Point B the rock is still moving downward, therefore we have kinetic energy and since it is 60 [m] with respect to the reference level we have potential energy.

$E_{B}=m*g*h+\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}$

Therefore we will have the following equation:

$(6.5*9.81*120)+(0.5*6.5*18^{2} )=(6.5*9.81*60)+(0.5*6.5*v_{B}^{2} )\\3.25*v_{B}^{2} =4878.9\\v_{B}=\sqrt{1501.2}\\v_{B}=38.75[m/s]$

The kinetic energy can be easily calculated by means of the kinetic energy equation.

$KE_{B}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v_{B}^{2}\\KE_{B}=0.5*6.5*(38.75)^{2}\\KE_{B}=4878.9[J]$

In order to calculate the velocity at the bottom of the cliff where the reference level of potential energy (potential energy equal to zero) is located, we must pose the same equation, with the exception that at the new point there is only kinetic energy.

$E_{A}=E_{C}\\6.5*9.81*120+(0.5*9.81*18^{2} )=0.5*6.5*v_{C}^{2} \\v_{c}^{2} =\sqrt{2843.39}\\v_{c}=53.32[m/s]$
