When running a 100 meter race Wyatt reaches his maximum speed when he is 40 meters from the starting line, and 7 seconds have el

apsed since the start of the race. Wyatt continues at this max speed for the rest of the race and is 85 meters from the starting line 12 seconds after the start of the race. What is Wyatt's max speed

Answer:

9 m/s

Explanation:

Wyatt maintains the maximum speed for the rest of the race. This motion begins when his displacement is 40 m and the time is 7 s. At time 12 s, his displacement is 85 m. Because this motion is constant-velocity, the maximum speed is given by

v_\text{max} = \dfrac{85-40}{12-7} = \dfrac{45}{5} = 9 \text{ m/s}

What is the angular speed of (a) the second hand, (b) the minute hand, and (c) the hour hand of a smoothly running analog watch?
Agata [3.3K]
A)We know the formula of the angular speed is                 ω = 2π / TWhere T is the time period.When second hand completes one revolution then the time taken is 60s.So T = 60sThen the angular speed of the second hand is          ω= 2π / (60s)             = 0.1047 rad/sb)When the minute hand completes one revolution the time taken is             T = 1 hr                = 3600sThen the angular speed of the minute hand is         ω =(2π) / (3600s) = 0.001745 rad/sc)When the hour hand completes one revolution then the timeperiod is          T = 12hrs             = (12)(3600)sThen the angular speed of the hour hand is         ω =(2π) / [(12)(3600)s] = 1.45444 x 10^-4 rad/s

Velocityis a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. Using complete sentences, describethe object's velocity. Co
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A physical quantity which can be completely described by the magnitude and direction both are called vector quantities. For example, displacement, velocity, etc.

A physical quantity which can be completely explained by the magnitude only is called scalar quantity. For example, mass, time, etc.

A beam of light has a wavelength of 4.5 x10^-7 meter in a vacuum. the frequency of this light is
valkas [14]
The basic relationship between frequency and wavelength for light (which is an electromagnetic wave) is
c= f \lambda
where c is the speed of light, f the frequency and \lambda the wavelength of the wave. 
Using \lambda=4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m and c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, we can find the value of the frequency:
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=6.7 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

An object moving at a constant speed of 25 m/s is making a turn with a radius of curvature of 7 m (this is the radius of the "ki
prisoha [69]

Answer:

- 278.34 kg m/s^2

Explanation:

The rate of the change of momentum is the same as the force.

The force that an object feels when moviming in a circular motion is given by:

F = -mrω^2

Where ω is the angular speed and r is the radius of the circumference

Aditionally, the tangential velocity of the body is given as:

v = rω

The question tells us that

v = 25 m/s

r = 7m

mv = 78 kg m/s

Therefore:

m = (78 kg m/s) / (25 m/s) = 3.12 kg

ω = (25 m/s) / (7 m) = 3.57 (1/s)

Now, we can calculate the force or rate of change of momentum:

F = - (3.12 kg) (7 m)(3.57 (1/s))^2

F = - 278.34 kg m/s^2
