An electric wall clock has a second hand 15 cm long. at the tip of his hand, what is the magnitude of the velocity?

Physics

Mila [183]2 years ago
7 0

The velocity of the tip of the second hand is 0.0158 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the angular velocity of the second hand.

We know that the second hand completes one full circle in

T = 60 seconds

Therefore, its angular velocity is:

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{(60)}=0.105 rad/s

Now we can calculate the velocity of a point on the tip of the hand by using the formula

v=\omega r

where

\omega=0.105 rad/s is the angular velocity

r = 15 cm = 0.15 m is the radius of the circle (the distance of the point from the centre of rotation)

Substituting,

v=(0.105)(0.15)=0.0158 m/s

On a frictionless surface how much force is necessary to accelerate a 0.49 kg object to the left at 4.8 m/s2?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>2.35 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

force = 0.49 × 4.8 = 2.352

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.35 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

How does inertia affect a person who is not wearing a seatbelt during a collision?
elena55 [62]
<span>The rule of inertia states that an object in motion will stay in motion unless another force has acted upon it. Because the person doesn't have their seatbelt on, they will keep moving. But if they were wearing a seatbelt, that would work as the force that is supposed to stop the person from flying forward.

Hope this helps :)

A human being can be electrocuted if a current as small as 51.0 ma passes near the heart. an electrician working with sweaty han
boyakko [2]

The fatal current is 51 mA = 0.051 Ampere.

The resistance is 2,050Ω .

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

            =  (0.051 Ampere) x (2,050 Ω)  =  104.6 volts .

==================

This is what the arithmetic says IF the information in the question
is correct.

I don't know how true this is, and I certainly don't plan to test it,
but I have read that a current as small as  15 mA  through the
heart can be fatal, not  51 mA .

If 15 mA can do it, and the sweaty electrician's resistance is
really 2,050 Ω, then the fatal voltage could be as little as  31 volts !

The voltage at the wall-outlets in your house is  120 volts in the USA !
THAT's why you don't want to stick paper clips or a screwdriver into
outlets, and why you want to cover unused outlets with plastic plugs
if there are babies crawling around.
