A car drives to the east in a time of 4 hours. Then, immediately (not realistic, but just assume this is the case for this probl

em), travels 12 km to the west in 4 hours. The average speed for the entire trip is 5 km/hr. What is the average speed of the car for the first part of the trip, in km/hr, while the car was traveling east?

Answer:

Average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr            

Explanation:

We have given average speed of the entire trip = 5 km/hr

First the car 4 hours then travels 12 km in 4 hours

So total time of the trip = 4+4 = 8 hours

So total distance traveled in the trip d=speed\times time = 5\times 8=40km

As the car travel 12 km in 4 hours to the west

So distance traveled in 4 hour in east = 40 -12 = 28 km

Time in east direction = 4 hour

So average speed in east direction speed=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{28}{4}=7km/hr

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

 w = 2w₀     the angular velocity of man doubles

Explanation:

In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia

       I= I₀ / 2

Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved

         L₀ = L

       I₀ w₀ = I w

       I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w

       w = 2w₀

therefore the angular velocity of man doubles

A grindstone increases in angular speed from 6.00 rad/s to 12.20 rad/s in 16.00 s. Through what angle does it turn during that t
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that the grand stone has initial angular velocity of

w(ini)= 6rad/

And it has a final angular velocity of

w(fin)=12.20rad/sec

Time taken is t=16s

Using equation of angular motion

To get angular acceleration (α)

w(fin)=w(ini)+αt

12.20=6+16α

16α=12.20-6

16α=6.2

α=6.2/16

α=0.3875rad/sec²

The angular acceleration is 0.39rad/s²

Angle that he turn using

w(fin)²=w(ini)²+2αθ

12.2²=6²+2×0.3875θ

12.2²-6²=0.775θ

0.775θ=112.84

Then, θ=112.84/0.775

θ=145.6radian

The angular displacement is 145.6rad
