A 3.45-kg centrifuge takes 100 s to spin up from rest to its final angular speed with constant angular acceleration. A point loc

ated 8.00 cm from the axis of rotation of the centrifuge moves with a speed of 150 m/s when the centrifuge is at full speed.
(a) What is the angular acceleration (in rad/s^2) of the centrifuge as it spins up?
(b) How many revolutions does the centrifuge make as it goes from rest to its final angular speed?

Answer:

(a) 18.75 rad/s²

(b) 14920.78 rev

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the acceleration of the centrifuge using,

a = (v-u)/t......................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: v = 150 m/s,  u = 0 m/s ( from rest), t = 100 s

Substitute into equation 1

a = (150-0)/100

a = 1.5 m/s²

Secondly we calculate for the angular acceleration using

α = a/r..................... Equation 2

Where α = angular acceleration, r = radius of the centrifuge

Given: a = 1.5 m/s², r = 8 cm = 0.08 m

substitute into equation 2

α = 1.5/0.08

α = 18.75 rad/s²

(b)

Using,

Ф = (ω'+ω).t/2........................... Equation 3

Where Ф = number of revolution of the centrifuge, ω' = initial angular velocity, ω = Final angular velocity.

But,

ω = v/r and ω' = u/r

therefore,

Ф = (u/r+v/r).t/2

where u = 0 m/s (at rest),  = 150 m/s, r = 0.08 m, t = 100 s

Ф = [(0/0.08)+(150/0.08)].100/2

Ф = 93750 rad

If,

1 rad = 0.159155 rev,

Ф = (93750×0.159155) rev

Ф = 14920.78 rev

A commuter train travels from New York to Washington, DC, and back in 6 hours and 5 minutes. The distance between the two statio
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

The train's displacement is zero.

Explanation:

Given data,

The time taken by the train from NY to Washington and back is, t = 6 h 5 min

The distance between the two stations is, d = 363 km

Therefore, the total distance the train traveled is, d' = 726 km

The displacement is defined as the change in position coordinates with respect to its original position.

If the train travels from one point and returns back to the same point after some time, there is no change in the position coordinates with respect to its original position.

Hence, the train's displacement is zero.

A 6 kg weight is lifted off the ground to a height that gives it 70.56 j of gravitational potential energy. what is its height?
Marina CMI [18]
GPE= 70.56 J -------------------> GPE= mgh-------------> X= height
70.56 = 6(kg) * 9.8(m/s/s) * X
70.56 = 58.8X
70.56/58.8= 58.8X/58.8
X= 1.2
The height is 1.2 feet or meters (whatever unit you are using in this problem)

An object at rest cannot remain at rest unless which of the following holds?View Available Hint(s)An object at rest cannot remai
Leni [432]

Answer:

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

Explanation:

In order to analyze the statements of this problem we propose your solution.

First let's look at Newton's first, which stable that every object is at rest or with constant speed unless something takes it out of this state (acceleration)

Now let's look at the second postulate, which says that force is related to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration.

As a result of these two laws, for a body is a constant velocity the summation force on it must be zero.

Now we can analyze the statements given.

True The net force must be zero for the acceleration to be zero

False. If the force is different from zero, there is acceleration that changes the speeds

False. There may be forces, but the sum of them must be zero

False. If a force acts, the acceleration is different from zero and the speed changes

What are the reactants of cellular respiration? Check all that apply. carbon dioxide energy glucose oxygen water
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Glucose and Oxygen

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process whereby cells derives energy by the use of glucose and oxygen.

Organisms that use cellular respiration to produce their energy are known as heterotophs. They derive the glucose from food materials obtained from plant sources. They use the oxygen from the environment to liberate energy from the glucose obtained from feeding on plant materials.

Cellular respiration can be simply expressed as shown below:

GLUCOSE + OXYGEN → CO₂ + H₂O + ATP

The reactants are glucose and oxygen.

The products are CO₂, water and ATP

Which property of table salt is also a property of other ionic compounds
Jet001 [13]

s alluded to in the other answers, salt refers to any ionic compound that doesn't have “oxides” in it. Table salt is sodium chloride. Going down the periodic table, the first column contains lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. This group (alkali metals) of atoms (and their corresponding positive ions) gets larger in the order shown above. Therefore, their ionic bonds with chloride (or any nonmetal) gets smaller. The trend of their corresponding compounds is a decreasing hardness, decreasing melting point, decreasing boiling point, and decreasing thermal stability. These are the major periodic trends of these corresponding compounds. Other metal ions generally have higher positive charges on them. This makes the ionic bonds considerably larger and you can probably surmise most of their corresponding properties listed above. However, the details of their lattice structures may cause the overall trend to vary.
