Almost true but not quite.

That would give you the negative of the actual acceleration.

It should be the other way around:

(final v) minus (initial v), then divide by time.

jenny's model train is set up on a circular track. There are six telephone poles evenly spaced around the track. It takes the en

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

T = 60 s

Explanation:

There are 6 poles on the track which are equally spaced

so the angular separation between the poles is given as

$\theta = \frac{2\pi}{6}$

$\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}$

so the angular speed of the train is given as

$\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}$

$\omega = \frac{\pi}{30} rad/s$

now we have time period of the train given as

$T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}$

$T = \frac{2\pi}{\frac{\pi}{30}}$

$T = 60 s$

A man whose mass is 69 kg and a woman whose mass is 52 kg sit at opposite ends of a canoe 5 m long, whose mass is 20 kg. Suppose

dusya [7]

Answer:

the canoe moved 1.2234 m in the water

Explanation:

Given that;

A man whose mass = 69 kg

A woman whose mass = 52 kg

at opposite ends of a canoe 5 m long, whose mass is 20 kg

now let;

x1 = position of the man

x2 = position of canoe

x3 = position of the woman

Now,

Centre of mass = [m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3] / m1 + m2 + m3

= ( 69×0 ) + ( 52×5) + ( 20× 5/2) / 69 + 52 + 20

= (0 + 260 + 50 ) / ( 141 )

= 310 / 141

= 2.19858 m

Centre of mass is 2.19858 m

Now, New center of mass will be;

52 × 2.5 / ( 69 + 52 + 20 )

= 130 / 141

= 0.9219858 m { away from the man }

To get how far, the canoe moved;

⇒ 2.5 + 0.9219858 - 2.19858

= 1.2234 m

Therefore, the canoe moved 1.2234 m in the water
