Explanation:

Hi, there!!

Energy is defined as the capacity or ability to do work. It's SI unit is Joule.

here,

Joule = (kg×m×m)/(s×s)

 = kg×m^2/s^2.

Therefore, the derived unit is kg.m^2 by s^2.

A private aviation helicopter's main rotor blades rotate at approximately

Arisa [49]

Answer: 7.5 rev/s

Explanation:

We are given the angular velocity $\omega$ a helicopter's main rotor blades:

$\omega=450 rpm=450 \frac{rev}{min}$

However, we are asked to express this $\omega$ in the International Systrm (SI) units. In this sense, the SI unit for time is second ( $s$ ):

$\omega=450 \frac{rev}{min} \frac{1 min}{60 s}$

$\omega=7.5 \frac{rev}{s}$

A baseball rolls off a 1.20m high desk and strikes the floor 0.50m away from the base of the desk . How fast was it rolling?

noname [10]

The initial velocity of the ball is 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball rolling off the desk is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration ( $g=9.8 m/s^2$ , acceleration due to gravity)

We start by analyzing the vertical motion: we can find the time of flight of the ball by using the following suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

s = 1.20 m is the vertical displacement (the height of the desk)

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

t is the time of flight

Solving for t,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.20)}{9.8}}=0.495 s$

Now we analyze the horizontal motion. We know that the ball covers a horizontal distance of

d = 0.50 m

in a time

t = 0.495 s

Therefore, since the horizontal velocity is constant, we can calculate it as

$v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.50}{0.495}=1.01 m/s$

So, the ball rolls off the table at 1.01 m/s.

A company is creating a new mosquito repellent, and needs to figure out how much is needed to stop mosquito bites. They find vol

Jlenok [28]

The independent variable is the different amount of repellent each person is given. This is because it does not depend on any variable. The dependent variable is what they are measuring, which would be the number of bites on each volunteer.
I hope this helps! :)

Give reason for the following:

Zigmanuir [339]

a) An inflated balloon was pressed against a wall after it has been rubbed with a piece of synthetic cloth. It was found that the balloon sticks to the wall. This is because a positive and negative electric charge is produced, therefore the balloon sticks to the wall.

b) When an object is thrown up, it comes back to ground because of gravitational attraction force of earth.

c) Mountaineers suffer nose bleeding at higher altitudes because the oxygen level decreases with increase in altitude, which the body cannot adjust.

d) Foundations of high rise buildings are kept wide because more is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforts. So, foundations are wide so as to decrease the possibility of the building from falling down.

e) Deep sea divers or high altitude fliers wear special suits so as prevent their body from being crushed by the water pressure. Since water pressure is maximum at deep seas and oceans, therefore, more is the risk of being injured.

f) Walls of a dam are thickened near the base so that the dam can handle the kinetic energy pressure and prevent itself from breaking down, which if not, can lead to flooding.
