Mgh= 1/2 m v^2
gh= 1/2 v^2 9.8 * 8= 1/2 v^2
solve for v
V = sqrt(2gH)where H = 8 m.

A wheel rotates about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 3.3 rad/s2. The diameter of the wheel is 21 cm. What

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The the linear speed (in m/s) of a point on the rim of this wheel at an instant=0.418 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular acceleration, $\alpha=3.3 rad/s^2$

Diameter of the wheel, d=21 cm

Radius of wheel, $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{21}{2}$ cm

Radius of wheel, $r=\frac{21\times 10^{-2}}{2} m$

1m=100 cm

Magnitude of total linear acceleration, a= $1.7 m/s^2$

We have to find the linear speed of a at an instant when that point has a total linear acceleration with a magnitude of 1.7 m/s2.

Tangential acceleration, $a_t=\alpha r$

$a_t=3.3\times \frac{21\times 10^{-2}}{2}$

$a_t=34.65\times 10^{-2}m/s^2$

Radial acceleration, $a_r=\frac{v^2}{r}$

We know that

$a=\sqrt{a^2_t+a^2_r}$

Using the formula

$1.7=\sqrt{(34.65\times 10^{-2})^2+(\frac{v^2}{r})^2}$

Squaring on both sides

we get

$2.89=1200.6225\times 10^{-4}+\frac{v^4}{r^2}$

$\frac{v^4}{r^2}=2.89-1200.6225\times 10^{-4}$

$v^4=r^2\times 2.7699$

$v^4=(10.5\times 10^{-2})^2\times 2.7699$

$v=((10.5\times 10^{-2})^2\times 2.7699)^{\frac{1}{4}}$

$v=0.418 m/s$

Hence, the the linear speed (in m/s) of a point on the rim of this wheel at an instant=0.418 m/s

Which of the following does not contribute to Wellness

Tomtit [17]

<span>The option that does not contribute to wellness are tendencies. Tendencies are just things that you are more likely to do, or behavior that you are more likely to show, and in no way does that affect your wellness. However, your habits, exercise, and diet do, because all of these things have an impact on both your body and mind, thus creating a wellness of the entire human being.</span>

Well, for one, alcohol impairs someone's ability to perceive distance and see or think clearly. The severity of it depends on the drinker's size. Hope that helped a little.
