8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

1. What was the diameter of the hailstone in inches_5.09_ and in cm___12.92___ and in feet ____0.42___?

2. What was the total volume of the hailstone in cubic inches___68.64___ and cubic feet____0.03____?

3. What was the fall velocity of this hailstone in m/s_____2.584____ and in mph___5.78_____?

Explanation:

1. If the circumference (L) of the stone is 16 inches, then from the following equation

L = 2\pi R

R = \frac{L}{2\pi} = \frac{16}{2\pi} = 2.54 ~inches

D = 2R = 5.09 ft

1 inch = 2.54 cm = 0.08 ft, so 5.09 inches = 12..92 cm = 0.42 ft

2. The total volume is

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi R^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi (2.54)^3 = 68.64~in^3\\68.64 ~in^3 = 0.03~ft^3

3. The fall velocity is V = kd, where k = 20 if d is in cm. Let's calculate the fall velocity in cm.

V = 20*12.92 = 258.4~cm/s = 2.584~m/s

2.584 m/s = 5.78 mph

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

C. the bottom

Explanation:

The tires of the car is rolling without slipping. In this case, the bottom of the tire that contacts the surface must be at rest in order to prevent slipping. Of course this is instantaneously. The tire has a translational velocity, v, and also at the bottom a rotational velocity, -v, and the sum is zero for the bottom.
