Tarzan has foolishly gotten himself into another scrape with the animals and must be rescued once again by Jane. The 60.0 kg Jan

e starts from rest at a height of 5.50 m in the trees and swings down to the ground using a thin, but very rigid, 32.0 kg vine 8.50 m long. She arrives just in time to snatch the 72.0 kg Tarzan from the jaws of an angry hippopotamus. What is Jane's (and the vine's) angular speed

Complete part of Question: What is Jane's (and the vine's) angular speed just before she grabs Tarzan

Answer:

Jane's (and the vine's) angular speed just before she grabs Tarzan, w = 1.267 rad/s

Explanation:

According to the law of energy conservation:

Total change in kinetic energy = Total change in potential energy

Mass of Jane = 60 kg

Mass of the vine = 32 kg

Mass of Tarzan = 72 kg

Height of Tarzan = 5.50 m

Length of the vine = 8.50 m

Jane's change in gravitational potential energy,

$U_J = 60 * 9.8 * 5.5\\U_J = 3234 J$

Vine's gravitational potential energy,

$U_v = Mgh/2\\U_v = 32*9.8*5.5/2\\U_v = 862.4J$

Vine's Kinetic energy :

$KE_V = 0.5 I w^{2} \\I_V = \frac{ML^2}{3} = \frac{32 * 8.5^2}{3} = 770.67 kg m^2\\ KE_V = 0.5 *770.67 * w^{2}\\KE_V = 385.33 w^{2}$

Jane's Kinetic energy:

$KE_J = 0.5m(wL)^2\\KE_J = 0.5*60(w * 8.5)^2\\KE_J = 2167.5 w^2$

$U_J + U_V = KE_J + KE_V$

3234 + 862.4 = 2167.5w² + 385.33w²

4096.4 = 2552.83w²

w² = 4096.4/2552.83

w² = 1.605

w = √1.605

w = 1.267 rad/s

The graph shows a wave that oscillates with a frequency of 60 Hz. Based on the information given in the diagram, what is the spe

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

900 cm/s or 9 m/s.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Length (L) = 30 cm

frequency (f) = 60 Hz

Velocity (v) =.?

Next, we shall determine the wavelength (λ).

This is illustrated below:

Since the wave have 4 node, the wavelength of the wave will be:

λ = 2L/4

Length (L) = 30 cm

wavelength (λ) =.?

λ = 2L/4

λ = 2×30/4

λ = 60/4

λ = 15 cm

Therefore, the wavelength (λ) is 15 cm

Now, we can obtain the speed of the wave as follow:

wavelength (λ) = 15 cm

frequency (f) = 60 Hz

Velocity (v) =.?

v = λf

v = 15 × 60

v = 900 cm/s

Thus, converting 900 cm/s to m/s

We have:

100 cm/s = 1 m/s

900 cm/s = 900/100 = 9 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the wave is 900 cm/s or 9 m/s.

The battery for a certain cell phone is rated at 3.70 V. According to the manufacturer it can produce math]3.15 \times 10^{4} J[

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The average current that this cell phone draws when turned on is 0.451 A.

Explanation:

Given;

voltage of the phone, V = 3.7 V

electrical energy of the phone battery, E = 3.15 x 10⁴ J

duration of battery energy, t = 5.25 h

The power the cell phone draws when turned on, is the rate of energy consumption, and this is calculated as follows;

$P = \frac{E}{t}$

where;

P is power in watts

E is energy in Joules

t is time in seconds

$P = \frac{3.15*10^4}{5.25*3600s} = 1.667 \ W$

The average current that this cell phone draws when turned on:

P = IV

$I = \frac{P}{V} =\frac{1.667}{3.7} = 0.451 \ A$

Therefore, the average current that this cell phone draws when turned on is 0.451 A.

Spacetime interval: What is the interval between two events if in some given inertial reference frame the events are separated b

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a. $\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

b. $\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

c. $\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

Explanation:

The spacetime interval $\Delta s^2$ is given by

$\Delta s ^2 = \Delta (c t) ^ 2 - \Delta \vec{x}^2$

please, be aware this is the definition for the signature ( + - - - ), for the signature (- + + + ) the spacetime interval is given by:

$\Delta s ^2 = - \Delta (c t) ^ 2 + \Delta \vec{x}^2$ .

Lets work with the signature ( + - - - ), and, if needed in the other signature, we can multiply our interval by -1.

<h3>a.</h3>

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (7.5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 5,625 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 3 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (899,377,374 \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

so

$\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2 - 5,625 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 8.0888 \ 10^{17} m^2$

<h3>b.</h3>

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 0.58 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (173,879,625.6 \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

so

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2 - 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{16} m^2$

<h3>c.</h3>

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = (5 \ 10 \ m)^2$

$\Delta \vec{x}^2 = 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (299,792,458 \frac{m}{s} \ 58 \ s)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = (1.73879 \ 10^{10} \ m)^2$

$\Delta (c t) ^ 2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$

so

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2 - 2,500 m^2$

$\Delta s ^2 = 3.0234 \ 10^{20} m^2$
