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

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

An apple falls out of a tree from a height of 2.3m. what is the impact speed of the apple
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:6.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Apple fall from a height of h=2.3 m  

We need to find the impact speed of apple which can be given by using

v^2-u^2=2gh  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

h=Displacement

Assuming initial velocity to be zero

substituting the value we get

v^2-0=2\times 9.8\times 2.3  

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3}  

v=6.71\ m/s

In your own words, answer the following 3 questions about an object experiencing red shift? 1. Describe the motion of an object
german

1.  When an object is moving away from us, the light from the object is known as redshift, and when an object is moving towards us, the light from the object is known as blueshift.

2.  A wavelength increases in size, and its frequency, and energy decrease.

3.  The frequency of a wave increases, and its wavelength decreases.

Redshift is an important term for astronomers. The term can be taken literally. The wavelengths of light are stretched and perceived as shifting toward the red portion of the spectrum. The same thing happens to sound waves when the source moves relative to the observer.

As the wave frequency decreases, the wavelength increases as long as the wave velocity remains constant. If the wave speed stays the same as the frequency decreases, it means that fewer wave peaks or troughs pass through a given point in a given time period. The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency. Frequency and energy decrease with increasing wavelength.
