A 55.6 kg ice skater is moving at 1.73 m/s when she grabs the loose end of a rope, the opposite end of which is tied to a pole.

She then moves in a circle of radius 0.608 m around the pole. Find the force exerted by the rope on her arms. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of kN.

Answer:

The force exerted by the rope on her arms is 273.7 N = 0.274 kN

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the ice skater = 55.6 kg

Velocity = 1.73 m/s

She then moves in a circle of radius 0.608 m around the pole.

Step 2:

Force exterted by the horizontal rope is the centripetal force acting on theice skater:

Fc = M*ac

⇒ with ac = v²/r

Fc = M * v²/r

Fc = 55.6 * 1.73²/0.608

Fc =273.69 N

The force exerted by the rope on her arms is 273.7 N = 0.274 kN

A 13.0 kg wheel, essentially a thin hoop with radius 1.80 m, is rotating at 469 rev/min. It must be brought to a stop in 16.0 s.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of wheel m=13 kg

radius of wheel=1.8 m

N=469 rev/min

\omega =\frac{2\pi \times 469}{60}=49.11 rad/s

t=16 s

Angular deceleration in 16 s

\omega =\omega _0+\alpha \cdot t

\alpha =\frac{\omega }{t}=\frac{49.11}{16}=3.069 rad/s^2

Moment of Inertia I=mr^2=13\times 1.8^2=42.12 kg-m^2

Change in kinetic energy =Work done

Change in kinetic Energy=\frac{I\omega ^2}{2}-\frac{I\omega _0^2}{2}

\Delta KE=\frac{42.12\times 49.11^2}{2}=50,792.34 J

(a)Work done =50.79 kJ

(b)Average Power

P_{avg}=\frac{E}{t}=\frac{50.792}{16}=3.174 kW

A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it
TiliK225 [7]
Acceleration = (change of speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (22 - 4) = 18 m/s.
Time for the change = 3 sec.

Acceleration = 18/3 = 6 m/s per second.

Amy crashed her bike into the fence. She was thrown over it onto the lawn. Which Newton law applies
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion applies here.

Explanation:

Before crashing into the fence, Amy was moving at a certain speed on her bike. As, she crashed her bike into the fence, the collision stopped the bike suddenly. But, Amy had the same speed due to inertia of her body. Due tot  his speed Amy did not stop and she was thrown over the fence onto the lawn. So, the force of inertia of Amy's body caused her to be overthrown in this case. We study about inertia in Newton's First Law of Motion, which is also known as Law of Inertia.

<u>Newton's First Law of Motion applies here.</u>
