Answer:

Time needed for one revolution is 0.38 s

Explanation:

The formula for the frequency of rotation of a spaceship, to create the desired artificial gravity, is as follows:

f = (1/2π)√(a/r)

where,

f = frequency of rotation = ?

a = artificial gravity required = 0.5 g

g = acceleration due to gravity on surface of Earth = 9.8 m/s²

r = radius of ship = 35 mm/2 = 17.5 mm = 17.5 x 10⁻³ m

Therefore,

f = (1/2π)√[(0.5)(9.8 m/s₂)/(17.5 x 10⁻³ m)]

f = 2.66 Hz

Now, for the time required for one revolution, is given as:

Time Period = T = 1/f

T = 1/2.66 Hz

<u>T = 0.38 s</u>

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

A 762 kg car experiences a braking force of 9045 N and skids to a stop in 4.3 seconds. What is the speed of the car just before
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The solution for this problem is:

We will be using the formula for force which is F = ma 

=>10,000 = 2000 * a 

but we need to solve for acceleration so divide both sides by 2000, we will get:

=>a = 5 m/s^2 

Let the initial velocity was u m/s 

=>By v = u - at 

=>0 = u - 5 x 6 

Since acceleration is constant the velocity can be computed by multiplying the acceleration by 6 seconds. 

=>u = 30 m/s

Which material is a conductor​
9966 [12]

Answer:

Conductors conduct electrical current very easily because of their free electrons. Insulators oppose electrical current and make poor conductors. Some common conductors are copper, aluminum, gold, and silver. Some common insulators are glass, air, plastic, rubber, and wood.
