Two points are located on a rigid wheel that is rotating with decreasing angular velocity about a fixed axis. Point A is located

in the rim of the wheel and pint B is halfway between the rim and the axis. Which one of the following statements concerning this situation is true?
1. The angular velocity at point A is greater than that of point B
2. Both points have the same centripetal acceleration
3. Both points have the same tangential acceleration4. Both points have the same instantaneous angular velocity
5. Each second, point A turns through a greater angle than point B

Answer:

4. Both points have the same instantaneous angular velocity

Explanation:

Angular velocity is a measure of the the number of rotations per unit time. This does not depend on the radius of the wheel. Hence, all points on the wheel have the same angular velocity. This invalidates option 1.

The centripetal acceleration is given by the product to the square of the angular velocity and the radius or distance from the centre. A and B are located at different distances from the centre. Hence, they have different centripetal acceleration. This invalidates option 2.

The tangential acceleration depends on the linear velocity which itself is a product of the angular velocity and the distance from the centre. Hence, it is different for both points because they are at different distances from the centre.

Since both A and B are fixed points on the wheel, they move through equal angles in the same time. In fact, for any other fixed point, they all move through the same angle in the same time. This invalidates option 5.

A current of 3.6-A flows through a conductor. Calculate how much charge passed through and cross-section of the conductor in 25s
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

90 C

Explanation:

Electric current: This can be defined as the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit. This can be expressed mathematically as,

I = dQ/dt

dQ = Idt

∫dQ = ∫Idt

Q = It................................ Equation 1

Where Q = amount of charge, I = current, t = time.

Given: I = 3.6 A, t = 25 s.

Substituting into equation 1,

Q = 3.6(25)

Q = 90 C.

Hence the amount of charge passing through the cross section of the conductor = 90 C

Match the following vocabulary words with their definitions:
Ronch [10]

Correct matching:


1 acceleration --> rate of change in velocity, which is the change in velocity divided by the change in time

2. speed --> the rate at which an object changes position when traveling in a certain direction

4. gravity --> force of attraction between all masses in the universe

5. Inertia --> an object´s resistance to a change in motion

3. friction --> force of resistance acting between objects in contact and tending to dampen their motion

6. velocity --> the rate at which an object changes position
