Two skaters, one with mass 52.5 kg and the other with mass 26.3 kg, stand on an ice rink holding a pole with a length of 5.00 m

and a negligible mass. Starting from the ends of the pole, the skaters pull themselves along the pole until they meet. How far will the 26.3 kg skater move?

Answer: 10.02m

Explanation: Given

M1 = 26.3kg

M2 = 52.5kg

d = 5m

If the systems centre of mass does not change, the two skaters will definitely meet at the centre of mass.

If the 26.3kg skater is a m away from the centre of the mass, then the 52.5kg skater is (5-a) m away from the centre of the mass. Thus,

M1a + M2(5-a) = 0

26.3a + 52.5(5-a) = 0

26.3 a + 262.5 - 52.5a = 0

-26.2a + 262.5 = 0

26.2a = 262.5

a = 262.5/26.2

a = 10.02m

What should a model of the rock cycle show as the process that changes metamorphic rock to igneous rock?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Rock cycle describes the concept in geology that shows the changes in the rock type in the geologic time.

Many processes undergoes in the rock cycle that leads to transition of rocks, the process that changes metamorphic rock to igneous rock is melting and crystallization. The metamorphic rock melts under high pressure and temperature and which crystallizes into a completely different kind of rock, called igneous rock.

1.Predict the frequency of a tuning fork that emits a sound with a wavelength of 0.385 m.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

1.) Frequency F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

Explanation:

1.) Given that the wavelength = 0.385m

The speed of sound = 343 m / s

To predict the frequency, let us use the formula V = F λ

Where (λ) = wavelength = 0.385m

343 = F × 0.385

F = 343/0.385

F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Given that the frequency = 384Hz

Using the formula again

V = F λ

λ = V/F

Wavelength (λ) = 343/384

Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

The two questions can be solved with the use of formula

Un lector de DVD, la velocidad de giro es de 5400 rpm. determina el valor velocidad angular en rad/s,la frecuencia y el periodo
zubka84 [21]

Responder:

A) ω = 565.56 rad / seg

B) f = 90Hz

C) 0.011111s

Explicación:

Dado que:

Velocidad = 5400 rpm (revolución por minuto)

La velocidad angular (ω) = 2πf

Donde f = frecuencia

ω = 5400 rev / minuto

1 minuto = 60 segundos

2πrad = I revolución

Por lo tanto,

ω = 5400 * (rev / min) * (1 min / 60s) * (2πrad / 1 rev)

ω = (5400 * 2πrad) / 60 s

ω = 10800πrad / 60 s

ω = 180πrad / seg

ω = 565.56 rad / seg

SI)

Dado que :

ω = 2πf

donde f = frecuencia, ω = velocidad angular en rad / s

f = ω / 2π

f = 565.56 / 2π

f = 90.011669

f = 90 Hz

C) Periodo (T)

Recordar T = 1 / f

Por lo tanto,

T = 1/90

T = 0.0111111s
