Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Tom is on half way between the center and the outer rim

Mary is on the extreme outer rim

Suppose \omega is the angular velocity of ride with radius of outer rim be R

\alpha =angular acceleration of Ride

At any instant both Tom and Mary experience the same angular speed

(b)Linear velocity at any instant

v_{Tom}=\omega \times R

v_{Mary}=\omeag \times \frac{R}{2}

Thus Tom has higher linear speed

(c) For radial Acceleration

a_r=\omega ^2\times r

a_{Tom}=\omega ^2\times R

a_{Mary}=\omega ^2\times \frac{R}{2}

Tom has higher radial Acceleration as it is directly Proportional of radius

kirza4 [7]

At t =0, the velocity of A is greater than the velocity of B.

We are told in the question that the spacecrafts fly parallel to each other and that for the both  spacecrafts, the velocities are described as follows;

A: vA (t) = ť^2 – 5t + 20

B: vB (t) = t^2+ 3t + 10

Given that t = 0 in both cases;

vA (0) = 0^2 – 5(0) + 20

vA = 20 m/s

For vB

vB (0) = 0^2+ 3(0) + 10

vB = 10 m/s

We can see that at t =0, the velocity of A is greater than the velocity of B.

Read each question carefully. Show all your work for each part of the question. The parts within the question may not have equal weight. Spacecrafts A and B are flying parallel to each other through space and are next to each other at time t= 0. For the interval 0 <t< 6 s, spacecraft A's velocity v A and spacecraft B's velocity vB as functions of t are given by the equations va (t) = ť^2 – 5t + 20 and VB (t) = t^2+ 3t + 10, respectively, where both velocities are in units of meters per second. At t = 6 s, the spacecrafts both turn off their engines and travel at a constant speed. (a) At t = 0, is the speed of spacecraft A greater than, less than, or equal to the speed of spacecraft B?

A sound with an intensity greater than_____ dB can cause damage to human ears.
sergiy2304 [10]

85 decibels or higher can cause damage to the human ear. Decibels is the value of the measurement of sound. Hearing loss can be caused by noise coming from a loud sound. Noise induced hearing loss maybe permanent loss or temporary loss. Examples of activities that can give you a noise induced hearing loss is target shooting, listening to music in your earphones that have a high volume, and using lawnmowers.

A highway curves to the left with radius of curvature of 36 m and is banked at 28 ◦ so that cars can take this curve at higher s
iVinArrow [24]

Answer: 30.34m/s

Explanation:

The sum of forces in the y direction 0 = N cos 28 - μN sin28 - mg

Sum of forces in the x direction

mv²/r = N sin 28 + μN cos 28

mv²/r = N(sin 28 + μcos 28)

Thus,

mv²/r = mg [(sin 28 + μ cos 28)/(cos 28 - μ sin 28)]

v²/r = g [(sin 28 + μ cos 28)/(cos 28 - μ sin 28)]

v²/36 = 9.8 [(0.4695 + 0.87*0.8829) - (0.8829 - 0.87*0.4695)]

v²/36 = 9.8 [(0.4695 + 0.7681) / (0.8829 - 0.4085)]

v²/36 = 9.8 (1.2376/0.4744)

v²/36 = 9.8 * 2.6088

v²/36 = 25.57

v² = 920.52

v = 30.34m/s

Accelerating car is a _______
Pavel [41]

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity as a function of time. For example a car traveling at 50 km/hr starts to accelerate, 10 seconds after, its speed changes to 100 km/hr then the acceleration of the car during the time can be calculated as below: initial speed = 50 km/hr.
