Merry-go-rounds are a common ride in park playgrounds. The ride is a horizontal disk that rotates about a vertical axis at their

center. A rider sits at the outer edge of the disk and holds onto a metal bar while someone pushes on the ride to make it rotate. Suppose that a typical time for one rotation is 4.0 s and the diameter of the ride is 10 ft.A. For this typical time, what is the speed of the rider in m/s?B. What is the rider's radial acceleration, in m/s?C. What is the rider's radial acceleration if the time for one rotation is halved?

Answer:

A = 2.36m/s

B = 3.71m/s²

C = 29.61m/s2

Explanation:

First, we convert the diameter of the ride from ft to m

10ft = 3m

Speed of the rider is the

v = circumference of the circle divided by time of rotation

v = [2π(D/2)]/T

v = [2π(3/2)]/4

v = 3π/4

v = 2.36m/s

Radial acceleration can also be found as a = v²/r

Where v = speed of the rider

r = radius of the ride

a = 2.36²/1.5

a = 3.71m/s²

If the time of revolution is halved, then radial acceleration is

A = 4π²R/T²

A = (4 * π² * 3)/2²

A = 118.44/4

A = 29.61m/s²

Determine the gravitational field 300km above the surface of the earth. How does this compare to the field on the earth's surfac
Serjik [45]
The strength of the gravitational field is given by:
g= \frac{GM}{r^2}
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the distance measured from the centre of the planet.

In our problem, we are located at 300 km above the surface. Since the Earth radius is R=6370 km, the distance from the Earth's center is:
r=R+h=6370 km+300 km=6670 km= 6.67 \cdot 10^{6} m

And now we can use the previous equation to calculate the field strength at that altitude:
g= \frac{GM}{r^2}= \frac{(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(6.67 \cdot 10^6 m)^2}  = 8.95 m/s^2

And we can see this value is a bit less than the gravitational strength at the surface, which is g_s = 9.81 m/s^2.

Four astronauts are in a spherical space station. (a) If, as is typical, each of them breathes about 500 cm
mario62 [17]

Answer:

A) if each astronaut breathes about 500 cm³, the total volume of air breathed in a year is 14716.8m³.

B) The Diameter of this spherical space station should be 30.4m

Explanation:

The breathing frequency (according to Rochester encyclopedia) is about 12-16 breath per minute. if we take the mean value (14 breath per minute), we can estimate the total breaths of a person along a year:

f_b=14\frac{br}{min} \cdot \frac{60min}{1hr} \frac{24hr}{1day}\frac{365day}{1year}=29433600\frac{br}{year}

If we multiply this for the number of people in the station and the volume each breath needs, we obtain the volume breathed in a year.

The volume of a sphere is:

V_{sph}=\frac{4\pi}{3}r^3

So the diameter is:

D=2r=2\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V_{sph}}{4\pi}} =30.4m

If i have a kinematic equation vf^2=vi^2-2*a(xf-xi), how can i solve for xi step by step
azamat

Answer:

Explanation:

v_f^2 = v_i^2-2a(x_f-x_i)

Subtract both sides by v_i^2:

- v_i^2+v_f^2 = -2a(x_f-x_i)

Divide both sides by -2*a:

\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a} =x_f-x_i

Add both sides by x_i:

x_i+\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a} =x_f

Subtract both sides by \frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a}:

x_i=x_f-\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a}
