There are two ways to find energy. Energy=F*d=mv^2. We can use this relationship to find v:
$Fd=0.5mv^{2} \\ 80*4=0.5*10v^{2} \\ 64=v^{2} \\ v=8 m/s$

Three horses are side-by-side on a merry-go-round: one at the edge, one near the axis, and one in between. Each horse has the sa

sineoko [7]

Answer:

one at the edge

Explanation:

The relation between the linear velocity and the angular velocity is given by

v = r x ω

Where, v be the linear velocity, ω be the angular velocity and r be the radius of the circular path.

As the angular velocity is constant, thus, the linear velocity depends on the radius of circular path.

So, the horse which is near to the edge has maximum radius of circular path in which it is rotating. So, the horse which is at the edge of the merry go round has maximum linear speed.

A beam of light has a wavelength of 650 nm in vacuum. (a) What is the speed of this light in a liquid whose index of refraction

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 650 nm

Index refraction = 1.47

(a). We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of speed

$n = \dfrac{c}{v}$

Where, n = refraction index

c = speed of light in vacuum

v = speed of light in medium

Put the value into the formula

$1.47=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{v}$

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.47}$

$v= 2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$

(b). We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$n=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{n}$

Where, $\lambda_{0}$ = wavelength in vacuum

$\lambda$ = wavelength in medium

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{650\times10^{-9}}{1.47}$

$\lambda=442\times10^{-9}\ m$

Hence, The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

What is the % error in using g = 10.0 m/s^2? (Take the value ofg as 9.8 m/s^2)

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

So percentage error will be 2 %

Explanation:

We have given initial value of acceleration due to gravity $g=10m/sec^2$

And final value of acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We have to find the percentage error

We know that percentage error is given by $percentage\ error=\frac{initial\ value-final\ value}{initial\ value}\times 100$

So $percentage\ error=\frac{10-9.8}{10}\times 100=2$ %
