If the coefficient of friction is 0.3900 and the cylinder has a radius of 2.700 m, what is the minimum angular speed of the cyli

nder so that the people don't fall out? (Normally the operator runs it considerably faster as a safety measure.)

Answer:

w=3.05 rad/s or 29.88rpm

Explanation:

k = coefficient of friction = 0.3900

R = radius of the cylinder = 2.7m

V = linear speed of rotation of the cylinder

w = angular speed = V/R or to rewrite V = w*R

N = normal force to cylinder

N==\frac{m(V)^{2}}{R}=m*(w)^2*R

Friction force\\Ff = k*N\\Ff= k*m*w^2*R

Gravitational force \\Fg = m*g

These must be balanced (the net force on the people will be 0) so set them equal to each other.

Fg = Ff

m*g = k*m*w^2*R

g=k*w^{2}*R

w^2 =\frac{g}{k*R}

w=\sqrt{\frac{g}{k*R}} \\w =\sqrt{\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}{0.3900*2.7m}}\\ w=\sqrt{9.306}=3.05 \frac{rad}{s}

There are 2*pi radians in 1 revolution so:

RPM=\frac{w}{2\pi }*60\\RPM=\frac{3.05\frac{rad}{s}}{2\pi}*60\\RPM= 0.498*60\\RPM=29.88

So you need about 30 RPM to keep people from falling out the bottom

When removing the objects from the oven, you accidentally touch each one with your hand. Rank these objects on the basis of how
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

So, we can assemble the options based or evaluation of there properties regarding getting an equilibrium or balanced state in a given time.We have the following rankings attributed to the elements:

  • Silveringpot≥ aluminiumpot ≥ironskillet  ≥glasscasseroldish ≥welldone steak ≥woodencuttingboard.

Explanation:

<u>Attaining equilibrium matters:</u>

When the materials are placed inside the oven, they attain a high temperature value causing it to be non touchable but some of the items has low value to attain the equilibrium state when comes in contact with other mediums. As these materials are also arranged based on that analyses.

Using an example, explain how small atoms are.
Aliun [14]
Unlike a ball, an atom doesn't have a fixed radius. The radius of an atom can only be found by measuring the distance between the nuclei of two touching atoms, and then halving that distance... Does that answer your question?

Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                       Force  =  (mass) x (acceleration)

                                   =  (1,127 kg) x (6 m/s² forward)

                                   =  (1,127 x 6)  newtons forward

                                   =    6,762 newtons forward
______________________________

             Momentum  =  (mass) x (speed)

                                 =   (69 kg) x (6 m/s)

                                 =      414 kg-m/s

What is the relation between celsius and kelvin​
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The Celcius and kelvin scale are related unit for unit. One degree unit on the Celcius scale is equivalent to one degree unit on the kelvin scale. The only difference between these two scales is the zero point.
