In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their b

acks against the wall. The cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. Then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! If all goes well, the passengers will "stick" to the wall and not slide. Clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70. What is the min rotational velocity in revolutions per second for which the ride is safe?

Answer:

1.25 rev/s

Explanation:

N = mv^2/r (normal force )

f = μN  [Frictional force ]

f = mg

μN = mg

μ(mv^2/r) = mg

v = √(rg/μ)

min rotational velocity

v = √(rg/μ) = √(2.5 * 9.8/0.40) =  7.83 rad/sec

=  7.83/2π =  1.25 rev/s

How do i find the number of leptons in an atom??
Serjik [45]

Answer:

In particle physics, a lepton is an elementary particle of half-integer spin (spin 1⁄2) that does not undergo strong interactions.[1] Two main classes of leptons exist: charged leptons (also known as the electron-like leptons or muons), and neutral leptons (better known as neutrinos). Charged leptons can combine with other particles to form various composite particles such as atoms and positronium, while neutrinos rarely interact with anything, and are consequently rarely observed. The best known of all leptons is the electron.

The mass of an object on earth is 20 kg what will be the mass of that object on moon? And why? ​
Alla [95]

Answer:

20kg

Explanation:

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. The mass of an object, the amount of matter inside it does not change based on location. E.g. Objects do not lose matter when they travel to the moon.

Weight, on the other hand is the downward force you exert on the ground. Weight is calculated by multiplying the mass by the gravitational field strength and changes in different places with different gravitational strength. E.g. The moon's gravitational strength is 1/5 of Earth's so the mass of the object would stay the same but the weight would be only 20% of the weight is had on earth.

Hope this helped!

You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between
Anni [7]

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Where,

m_1 = mass of ball

m_2 = mass of the person

u_1 = Velocity of ball before collision

u_2 = Velocity of the person before collision

v_1 = velocity of ball afer collision

v_2= velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

v_1 = v_2

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2

Re-arrenge to find v_2,

v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}

Our values are,

m_1= 0.425kg

u_1= 12m/s

m_2= 68.5kg

u_2= 0m/s

Substituting,

v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}

v_2 = 0.074m/s

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

A 5.00 kg object oscillates back and forth at the end ofa spring whose spring constant is 49.3 N/m. An obersever istraveling at
defon

Answer:

5.571 sec

Explanation:

angular frequency = √ (k/m) = √ (49.3 / 5) = 3.14 rad/s

Period To = 2π / angular frequency

Period To = 2π/3.14 = 2 × 3.14 / 3.142 = 2.00 sec which you got

T measured by the observer = To / (√ (1 - (v²/c²))) = 2 / √( 1 - 0.871111) = 2 / 0.35901 = 5.571 sec

t=2.00/(1-√((2.80*10^8)^2/(3.00*10^8)^2))= should have been  ( To / (√ (1 - (v²/c²))).  where To = 2.00 sec
