Divide 35 by 2 which is 17.5 and then multiply that number by 500 which will be 8, 750.

Two wheels roll side-by-side without sliding, at the same speed. The radius of wheel 2 is one-half (1/2) the radius of wheel 1.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

w'=(1/2)w

Explanation:

In order to calculate the angular velocity of the second wheel, you use the following formula:

$\omega=\frac{v}{r}$ (1)

v: speed of the wheel 1 = speed of the wheel 2

r: radius of the wheel 1

For the second wheel you have:

r'=2r

You replace this value of r' in the following equation:

$\omega'=\frac{v}{r'}=\frac{v}{2r}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{v}{r}=\frac{1}{2}\omega\\\\\omega'=\frac{1}{2}\omega$

The angular velocity of the second wheel is one half of the angular velocity of the first wheel

When an object oscillating in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. What are its

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Speed = 0

Restoring force = maximum

Explanation:

Suppose this situation as a spring with a mass attached to it, that oscilates.

The force that the spring does (the restoring force in this case) is something like

F = K*L

where K is the constant of the spring, and L is the difference between the length of the spring (stretched) and the length of the spring at rest.

Then, when the harmonic oscillator is at its maximum displacement, L takes its maximum value, which means that at this point the restoring force must also have a maximum.

And for the velocity, at this point we have the maximum displacement, this means that, if the mass was moving to the right, after this point the mass stops going to the right, and then returns to the equilibrium position to the left.

Then the velocity has a change of sign, (like an object that reached its maximum height) this means that at that exact moment, the velocity must be zero.

Then:

Speed = 0

Restoring force = maximum

Finger [1]

The energy that will be released will be 8.95×10^(21) Joules
for comparison, the Nagasaki atom bomb released 8.8*10^(13) Joules
so this meteorite is (8.95×10^(21))/(8.8*10^(13))=100×10^6 (100 million) times more destructive
