Hi there!
We can begin by finding the acceleration of the block.
Use the kinematic equation:
The block starts from rest, so:
Now, we can do a summation of forces of the block using Newton's Second Law:
mb = mass of the block
T = tension of string
Solve for tension:
Now, we can do a summation of torques for the wheel:
Rewrite:
We solved that the linear acceleration is 1.5 m/s², so we can solve for the angular acceleration using the following:
Now, plug in the values into the equation:
Answer:
0.12m/s
Explanation:
v=λf
Given that, λ = 12cm = 0.12m
T = 1second
(A period T is the time required for one complete cycle of vibration to pass a given point)
frequency 'f' is unknown but we can get frequency from f = 1/T = 1/1 = 1Hz
therefore, v= 0.12 × 1 = 0.12m/s
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
A diver works in the sea on a day when the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. The diver uses compressed air to breathe under water. 1700 litres of air from the atmosphere is compressed into a 12-litre gas cylinder. The compressed air quickly cools to its original temperature. Calculate the pressure of the air in the cylinder.
Solution:
Boyles law states that the volume of a given gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted by the gas, provided that the temperature is constant.
That is:
P ∝ 1/V; PV = constant
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Given that P₁ = initial pressure = 101 kPa, V₁ = initial volume = 1700 L, P₂ = cylinder pressure, V₂ = cylinder volume = 12 L. Hence:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
100 kPa * 1700 L = P₂ * 12 L
P₂ = (100 kPa * 1700 L) / 12 L
P₂ = 14308 kPa
Gravity causes a falling object to fall 9.8 m/s faster every second it falls.
Kenny's book started out with no speed when it was dropped.
1.5 sec later, it was falling at (9.8 x 1.5) = 14.7 m/s .
During the fall, its average speed was 1/2(0 + 14.7) = 7.35 m/s .
Distance it covered = (average speed) x (time) =
(7.35 m/s) x (1.5 sec) = 11.025 m
