<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Velocity is vector quantity.So it needs direction in addition to speed.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion. </em>

"A uniform cylinder of mass M and radius R is rolling without slipping. The velocity of its center of mass is v. What is the cyl

Goshia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of cylinder is M

radius R

velocity of center of mass is v

As there is no slipping therefore cylinder will rotate as well as translate

Moment of inertia of cylinder $I=\frac{MR^2}{2}$

Kinetic Energy of cylinder $K.E.=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2$

Rotational energy $R.E.=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2$

for rolling

$v=\omega \times r$

where $\omega =angular\ velocity\ of\ cylinder$

$R.E.=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{MR^2}{2}\times (\frac{v}{R})^2=\frac{1}{4}Mv^2$

Total kinetic Energy $=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2+\frac{1}{4}Mv^2=\frac{3}{4}Mv^2$

Biologists think that some spiders "tune" strands of their web to give enhanced response at frequencies corresponding to those a

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

diameter $d=20 \mu m$

density $\rho =1300 kg/m^3$

frequency $\nu =150 Hz$

Length of silk strand $L=14 cm$

Velocity in the string is as follows

$\nu =\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}$

The expression for Fundamental Frequency

$f=\frac{\nu }{2l}$

$f=\frac{1}{2l}\times \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}$

$f=\frac{1}{2l}\times \sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{m}{l}}}$

$f=\frac{1}{2l}\times \sqrt{\frac{Tl}{\rho V}}$

Squaring

$f^2=\frac{1}{4l^2}\times \frac{Tl}{\rho V}$

$T=4\rho \cdot A\cdot l^2\cdot f^2$

$T=4\times 1300\times \frac{\pi }{4}(20\times 10^{-6})^2\times (0.14)^2\times 150^2$

$T=7.2\times 10^{-4} N$

boyakko [2]

Answer:

L = L0 (1 + c T) where c is the coefficient and T the change in temperature

L = 50 ( 1 + 2.05E-6 * 50) = 50.0051 cm
