Physics

Answer:

Rolling friction is much smaller than sliding friction because Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

Rolling Friction example: Anything with weels (cars,skateboards) or a ball rooling.

Sliding Friction example: Bicycle brakes,skinning your knee walking,writing.

At what rate must a cylindrical spaceship rotate if occupants are to experience simulated gravity of 0.50 gg? Assume the spacesh
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The time needed is T  = 16.8 s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The magnitude of the stimulated acceleration due gravity is  a  =  0.5 g

        The diameter of the spaceship is  d =  35m

       

Generally the force acting on the spaceship is  

       F  =  ma

Given that the spaceship is rotating it implies that the force experienced by the occupant is a centripetal force so

      F  = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Thus  

       ma  =  \frac{mv^2}{r}

=>    \frac{v^2}{r}  =  a

      Generally the speed of this spaceship is mathematically represented as

      v =  \frac{2 \pi}{T}

=>    v^2  =   [\frac{2\pi}{T}] ^2

=>     \frac{\frac{4\pi^2 r^2}{T^2} }{r}  = 0.5g

=>       \frac{4 \pi^2 r }{T^2} =  0.5 g

=>         T  = \sqrt{ \frac{4\pi^2 r}{0.5g}}

substituting values

          T  = \sqrt{ \frac{4* (3.142)^2 *(35)}{0.5 * 9.8}}

         T  = 16.8 s

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

baking the cake batter

Explanation:

Baking the cake batter will indicate that chemical change has occurred here. What is a chemical change?

  • A chemical change is one in which a new kind of matter is formed.
  • It is usually accompanied by energy either evolution or absorption of energy in form of heat or light or both.
  • The process is irreversible.
  • When the batter bakes, a new substance different from the cake mix is obtainable.
  • We cannot get back the ingredient from this baked cake. It is impossible.
  • This is good indicator of chemical change.

What distance should be used to pattern a shotgun hunter ed?
Murljashka [212]
I think the distance that should be used is the distance that one expects to be from the game you are hunting. Before taking a shotgun for a gobbler or even for ducks or other animals, you need to see how your gun performs by patterning it at various ranges with the load you want to use.
