Answer:

B) 3.50 m/s

Explanation:

The linear velocity in a circular motion is defined as:

v=\omega r(1)

The angular frequency (\omega) is defined as 2π times the frequency and r is the radius, that is, the distance from the center of the circular motion.

\omega=2\pi f(2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

v=2\pi fr

We have to convert the frequency to Hz:

7.18rpm*\frac{1Hz}{60rpm}=0.12Hz

Finally, we calculate how fast is the child moving:

v=2\pi(0.12Hz)(4.65m)\\v=3.5\frac{m}{s}

Heat used by electric heater :

Q = m • c • ∆T

Q = (75 kg)(4200 J/kg°C)(43°C - 15°C)

Q = 8.82 × 10⁶ J

Cost of electrical energy :

Cost = (8.82 × 10⁶ J)/(3.6 × 10⁶ J) • ($ 0.15)

Cost = $ 0.3675

A spring in a pogo-stick is compressed 12 cm when a 40. kg girl stands on the stick. what is the force constant for the pogo-sti
il63 [147K]

Answer: It is the same amount of weight as the girl is putting on the pogo stick. When you are pushing something downward then gravity will push back with the equal amount of force.

You comb your hair and the comb becomes negatively charged. Strictly speaking, how will the mass of your hair change? A. it wil
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

C. it will not change.

Explanation:

While combing, the rubbing of the comb with the hair, transfer of electron takes place from the hair to the comb and the comb becomes negatively charged. But, this transfer of electron does not make any considerable change in the mass of the hair. This is because the mass of an electron is highly negligible. Now, neglecting the mass of an electron, the transfer of the electrons from the hair to the comb makes charging of the comb, but no loss of mass in the hair. So, the mass of hair will no change.

C. This is the idea of "black body radiation". Charcoal/carbon is a "perfect black body". Absorbs all radiation. There's a whole host of stuff about this in physics, including, I think, Planck's (Nobel Prize winner) black body radiation theory.
