Work = Force*Distance

Force = Work/Distance
110/2=55 N

Work done = Force * Distance moved in the direction of the force.

110 J = F * 2 m

110/2 = F
55 = F

Therefore, force is 55N.

A car is travelling at a constant speed of 26.5 m/s. Its tires have a radius of 72 cm. If the car slows down at a constant rate

Answer:

Magnitude of angular acceleration = -3.95 rad/s²

Explanation:

Angular acceleration is the ratio of linear acceleration and radius.

That is

$\texttt{Angular acceleration}=\frac{\texttt{Linear acceleration}}{\texttt{Radius}}\\\\\alpha =\frac{a}{r}$

Radius = 72 cm = 0.72 m

Linear acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

$a=\frac{11.7-26.5}{5.2}=-2.85m/s^2$

Angular acceleration

$\alpha =\frac{a}{r}=\frac{-2.85}{0.72}=-3.95rad/s^2$

Angular acceleration = -3.95 rad/s²

Magnitude = 3.95 rad/s²

A satellite orbits the earth a distance of 1.50 × 107 m above the planet's surface and takes 8.65 hours for each revolution abou

kupik [55]

Answer:

The acceleration of the satellite is $0.87 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

The acceleration in a circular motion is defined as:

$a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}$ (1)

Where a is the centripetal acceleration, v the velocity and r is the radius.

The equation of the orbital velocity is defined as

$v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T}$ (2)

Where r is the radius and T is the period

For this particular case, the radius will be the sum of the high of the satellite ( $1.50x10^{7} m$ ) and the Earth radius ( $6.38x10^{6} m$ ) :

$r = 1.50x10^{7} m+6.38x10^{6}m$

$r = 21.38x10^{6}m$

Then, equation 2 can be used:

$T = 8.65 hrs \cdot \frac{3600 s}{1hrs}$ ⇒ $31140 s$

$v = \frac{2 \pi (21.38x10^{6}m)}{31140s}$

$v = 4313 m/s$

Finally equation 1 can be used:

$a = \frac{(4313m/s)^{2}}{21.38x10^{6}m}$

$a = 0.87 m/s^{2}$

Hence, the acceleration of the satellite is $0.87 m/s^{2}$

A particularly beautiful note reaching your ear from a rare stradivarius violin has a wavelength of 39.1 cm. the room is slightl

raketka [301]

The wavelength of the note is $\lambda = 39.1 cm = 0.391 m$ . Since the speed of the wave is the speed of sound, $c=344 m/s$ , the frequency of the note is
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}=879.8 Hz$

Then, we know that the frequency of a vibrating string is related to the tension T of the string and its length L by
$f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }$
where $\mu=0.550 g/m = 0.550 \cdot 10^{-3} kg/m$ is the linear mass density of our string.
Using the value of the tension, T=160 N, and the frequency we just found, we can calculate the length of the string, L:
$L= \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} } =0.31 m$
