Hershel discovered something called Infrared light. It was basically an experiment outdoors and you have a light and when the light hits another surface (like a deck) then that surface heats up

The distance covered is 25.9 m.

We know that the speed of sound refers to the speed with which an sound moves in an object.

Given that;

speed of sound = 345m/s

Time taken = 0.15s

We know that;

v = 2d/t

v = speed of sound

d = distance

t = time taken

vt = 2d

d = vt/2

d = 345m/s * 0.15s/2

d = 25.9 m

Sort the processes based on the type of energy transfer they involve.

blsea [12.9K]

Hi, thank you for posting your question herein Brainly.

These physical changes could be classified based on their energy requirements: endothermic or exothermic. Endothermic reaction need to absorb energy, while exothermic reaction need to release the energy in order to achieve spontaneous reactions.

Exothermic: Condensation, Freezing, Deposition
Endothermic: Sublimation, Evaporation, Melting

Two friction disks A and B are brought into contact when the angular velocity of disk A is 240 rpm counterclockwise and disk B i

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

a) αA = 4.35 rad/s²

αB = 1.84 rad/s²

b) t = 3.7 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given:

wA₀ = 240 rpm = 8π rad/s

wA₁ = 8π -αA*t₁

The angle in B is:

$\theta _{B} =4\pi =\frac{1}{2} \alpha _{B} t_{1}^{2} =\frac{1}{2} (\frac{r_{A} }{r_{B} } )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}$

$\alpha _{A} =8\pi (\frac{0.2}{0.15} )^{3} =59.57rad$

$w_{B,1} =\alpha _{B} t_{1}=(\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}=0.422\alpha _{A} t_{1}$

The velocity at the contact point is equal to:

$v=r_{A} w_{A} =0.15*(8\pi -\alpha _{A} t_{1})=1.2\pi -0.15\alpha _{A} t_{1}$

$v=r_{B} w_{B} =0.2*(0.422\alpha _{A} t_{1})=0.0844\alpha _{A} t_{1}$

Matching both expressions:

$1.2\pi -0.15\alpha _{A} t_{1}=0.0844\alpha _{A} t_{1}\\\alpha _{A} t_{1}=16.09rad/s$

b) The time during which the disks slip is:

$t_{1} =\frac{\alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}}{\alpha _{A} t_{1}} =\frac{59.574}{16.09} =3.7s$

a) The angular acceleration of each disk is

$\alpha _{A}=\frac{\alpha _{A} t_{1}}{t_{1} } =\frac{16.09}{3.7} =4.35rad/s^{2} (clockwise)$

$\alpha _{B}=(\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} *4.35=1.84rad/s^{2} (clockwise)$

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the following expression,

eduard

(a) 4.06 cm

In a simple harmonic motion, the displacement is written as

$x(t) = A cos (\omega t + \phi)$ (1)

where

A is the amplitude

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$\phi$ is the phase

t is the time

The displacement of the piston in the problem is given by

$x(t) = (5.00 cm) cos (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})$ (2)

By putting t=0 in the formula, we find the position of the piston at t=0:

$x(0) = (5.00 cm) cos (0+\frac{\pi}{5})=4.06 cm$

(b) -14.69 cm/s

In a simple harmonic motion, the velocity is equal to the derivative of the displacement. Therefore:

$v(t) = x'(t) = -\omega A sin (\omega t + \phi)$ (3)

Differentiating eq.(2), we find

$v(t) = x'(t) = -(5 rad/s)(5.00 cm) sin (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})=-(25.0 cm/s) sin (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})$

And substituting t=0, we find the velocity at time t=0:

$v(0)=-(25.00 cm/s) sin (0+\frac{\pi}{5})=-14.69 cm/s$

(c) -101.13 cm/s^2

In a simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is equal to the derivative of the velocity. Therefore:

$a(t) = v'(t) = -\omega^2 A cos (\omega t + \phi)$

Differentiating eq.(3), we find

$a(t) = v'(t) = -(5 rad/s)(25.00 cm/s) cos (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})=-(125.0 cm/s^2) cos (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})$

And substituting t=0, we find the acceleration at time t=0:

$a(0)=-(125.00 cm/s) cos (0+\frac{\pi}{5})=-101.13 cm/s^2$

(d) 5.00 cm, 1.26 s

By comparing eq.(1) and (2), we notice immediately that the amplitude is

A = 5.00 cm

For the period, we have to start from the relationship between angular frequency and period T:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

Using $\omega = 5.0 rad/s$ and solving for T, we find

$T=\frac{2\pi}{5 rad/s}=1.26 s$
