Observations of the Crab Nebula taken over several decades show that gas blobs that are now 100 arcseconds from the center of th

e nebula are moving away from the center by about 0.11 arcsecond per year. Use that information to estimate the year in which the explosion ought to have been observed.

Answer:

Estimation: year 1110.

Explanation:

We need to know how much time it takes to move 100 arcseconds if it moves at 0.11 arcsecond per year. Similarly to any velocity equation v=\frac{d}{t}, where in our case the distances are angular, we will obtain the time by doing:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{100arc}{0.11arc/year}=909 years

Which, considering from 2019, the explosion ought to have been observed around 1110 (in reality it was observed by Chinese astronomers in 1054).

The position of an object in simple harmonic motion is defined by the function y = (0.50 m) sin (πt/2). Determine the maximum sp
Gnoma [55]

The maximum speed of the object under simple harmonic motion is 0.786 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • Position of the particle, y = 0.5m sin(πt/2)

<h3>Wave equation for simple harmonic motion;</h3>

y = A sin(ωt + Ф)

where;

  • A is the amplitude = 0.5 m
  • ω is the angular speed = π/2

The maximum speed of the object is calculated as follows;

V_{max} = A \omega\\\\V_{max} = 0.5 \times \frac{\pi}{2} = \frac{\pi}{4} \ m/s  = 0.786 \ m/s

Thus, the maximum speed of the object under simple harmonic motion is 0.786 m/s.

A man wishes to lift a stone weighing 1440 N, using a first-class lever that measures 5 meters. What force should it perform if
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

3360 N

Explanation:

In a first-class lever, the effort force and load force are on opposite sides of the fulcrum.

The lever is 5 m long.  The load force is 1.50 m from the fulcrum, so the effort force must be 3.50 m from the fulcrum.

The torques are equal:

Fr = Fr

(1440 N) (3.5 m) = F (1.5 m)

F = 3360 N
