Answer: 10.048m/s

Explanation:

We know that the radius is r = 4.0m

And for rotating things, the tangential velocity (or the velocity of the end of the centrifuge arm) can be calculated as:

v = r*w

The period is T = 2.5s,

This means that if sin(w*t) describes this situation, we have that:

sin(w*t) = sin(w*(t + T))

and we know that:

sin(w*0) = 0

sin(w*(0 + T)) = Sin(w*T) = 0

this means that w*T = 2*pi

w = 2*pi/T = 2*pi/2.5s = (2*3.14)/2.5 s = 2.512 hz

Then the velocity can be calculated as

v = r*w = 4.0m*2.512hz = 10.048m/s

The force that pushes charges through a wire is called _____.
zhenek [66]

The force that pushes charges through a wire is called voltage. Electric current is the movement of the electrons caused by potential difference. For example, in a circuit, the electrons in the bulb will not move without the potential difference or voltage. When there is voltage, electric current occurs because there is a driving force for the electrons in the wire to move.

What is the weight of a basketball with a mass of 0.5 kg
IgorLugansk [536]

W = 4.9N. The weight of a basketball with a mass of 0.5Kg is 4.9N.

The weight of an object is the force of gravity on the object and can be defined as the product of the mass by the acceleration of gravity, w = mg.

W = (0.5Kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 4.9N

Vera and her three sisters received the same amount of money to go to the school festival. Each girl spent $12. Afterward, the g
rodikova [14]

Answer:

$18

Explanation:

Each of the was qiven $18

All together =24

24 divide it by 4 (because there were 4 people there)

= 6  (6+6+6+6)

= 24

=6+12=18    

.Hence each of them was given $18

Please help!!
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The distance will be the total distannce covered during the journey.

If you move 3 meters East and move 4 meters north, then the distance will be calculated as;

Distance = distnace through East+distance through north

Distance = 3m + 4m

<em>Distance = 7m</em>

Displacement is the distance covered in a specified direction. It is the shortest distance covered by me. This can be gotten using the Pythagoras theorem.

d² = 3²+4²

d² = 9+16

d² = 25

d = √25

d = 5m

<em>Hence the displacement of the object is 5metres</em>
