Answer:

The bodies will not come back to their starting point at he same time.

Explanation:

Since they are both pulled back at an angle to the vertical, there is a tangential component of acceleration a = gsinθ

When θ = 4 , a = 9.8sin4 = 0.684 m/s²

When θ = 8 , a = 9.8sin8 = 1.364 m/s²

Using s = ut + 1/2at². Where s is the distance covered and t = time taken, u = initial speed = 0 (assumed since they are both released at the same time)

So s = 0 × t + 1/2at² = 1/2at²

s = 1/2at²

t = √2s/a. Now, since s is the same for both swings, it follows that

t ∝ 1/a. Since their accelerations are different, the bodies will not come back to their starting point at he same time.

Answer:

They will come back at the same time.

Explanation:

The angular velocity equation of ω= \frac{V}{r} where ω is the frequency of the movement, dependent on the angle. But since swings are simple pendulums and their angles of 8 and 4 degrees are small, they will come back to their starting points at the same time.

I hope this answer helps.

If the back of the truck is 1.3 m above the ground and the ramp is inclined at 22 ∘ , how much time do the workers have to get t
solong [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Assume that
(a) The piano rolls down on frictionless wheels,
(b) Wind resistance is negligible.

The distance along the ramp is
d = (1.3 m)/sin(22°) = 3.4703 m

The component of the piano's weight along the ramp is
mg sin(22°)
If the acceleration down the ramp is a, then
ma = mg sin(22°)
a = g sin(22°) = (9.8 m/s²) sin(22°) = 3.671 m/s²

The time, t, to travel down the ramp from rest is given by
(3.4703 m) = 0.5*(3.671 m/s²)*(t s)²
t² = 3.4703/1.8355 = 1.8907
t = 1.375 s

Answer: 1.375 s

This technique allowed multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for
Lady_Fox [76]

DNA sequencing is the technique which allows multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for similarities and differences in order to solve crime and is denoted as option C.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

This is referred to as the deoxyribonucleic acid and contains the genetic components of organisms and is also located in the nucleus. On the other hand, DNA sequencing refers to the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence.

Each organisms has a unique DNA sequence which is why it is used to identify individuals through the use of bodily fluids such as saliva, blood etc.

It is used to compare the similarities and differences in order to solve crime thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

A person of mass 70 kg stands at the center of a rotating merry-go-round platform of radius 2.9 m and moment of inertia 900 kg⋅m
Cloud [144]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of person, m = 70 kg

Radius of merry go round, r = 2.9 m

The moment of inertia, I_1=900\ kg.m^2

Initial angular velocity of the platform, \omega=0.95\ rad/s

Part A,

Let \omega_2 is the angular velocity when the person reaches the edge. We need to find it. It can be calculated using the conservation of angular momentum as :

I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2

Here, I_2=I_1+mr^2

I_1\omega_1=(I_1+mr^2)\omega_2

900\times 0.95=(900+70\times (2.9)^2)\omega_2

Solving the above equation, we get the value as :

\omega_2=0.574\ rad/s

Part B,

The initial rotational kinetic energy is given by :

k_i=\dfrac{1}{2}I_1\omega_1^2

k_i=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 900\times (0.95)^2

k_i=406.12\ rad/s

The final rotational kinetic energy is given by :

k_f=\dfrac{1}{2}(I_1+mr^2)\omega_1^2

k_f=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (900+70\times (2.9)^2)(0.574)^2

k_f=245.24\ rad/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
