In a classic carnival ride, patrons stand against the wall in a cylindrically shaped room. Once the room gets spinning fast enou

gh, the floor drops from the bottom of the room! Friction between the walls of the room and the people on the ride make them the "stick" to the wall so they do not slide down. In one ride, the radius of the cylindrical room is R = 6.1 m and the room spins with a frequency of 21.7 revolutions per minute. What is the speed of a person "stuck" to the wall? What is the normal force of the wall on a rider of m = 53.0 kg?

Answer:

13.86175 m/s

1669.4836 N

Explanation:

\omega = Angular frequency = \dfrac{2\pi\times 21.7}{60}\ rad/s

r = Radius = 6.1 m

m = Mass of person = 53 kg

Angular speed of the person is given by

v=\omega r\\\Rightarrow v=2\pi fr\\\Rightarrow v=2\pi \dfrac{21.7}{60}\times 6.1\\\Rightarrow v=13.86175\ m/s

Speed of a person "stuck" to the wall is 13.86175 m/s

Normal force is given by

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{53\times 13.86175^2}{6.1}\\\Rightarrow F=1669.4836\ N

The normal force of the wall on the rider is 1669.4836 N

Suppose you wanted to start a fire using sunlight and a mirror. Which of the following statements is most accurate? A) It would
Maru [420]
<h2>Answer: B) It would be best to use a concave mirror, with the object to be ignited positioned halfway between the mirror and its center of curvature. </h2>

Explanation:

To start a fire it is more optimal to use a concave mirror than a plane mirror. This is because the concave mirror allows concentrating sunlight at a point (the focal point) on an object that acts as fuel and ignite the fire there.

For this it is necessary the object to be  positioned between the center of curvature of the mirror and the mirror (its focus). Thus the rays of the Sun, when converging on the focus, will heat the object and make it burn.

Hence, the correct option is B.

Which has the greater momentum when moving?
Basile [38]
I assume there are choices to this question that you forgot to include. No matter, I could just lay out the concept so that you can understand the gist.

The best way to approach this is to know the definition of momentum. In physics, momentum is always defined in terms of equation. For momentum, it is the product of the mass and velocity. Therefore, any increase of these two parameters would promote greater momentum. The greater the mass paired with the faster the velocity, the greater the momentum.

Sunlight has its maximum intensity at a wavelength of 4.83 x 10'm; wha energy does this correspond to in e?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

E = 2,575 eV

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the Planck equation and the relationship of the speed of light with the frequency and wavelength

     E = h f

     c = λ f

Where the Planck constant has a value of 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s

Let's replace

    E = h c / λ

Let's calculate for wavelengths

    λ = 4.83 10-7 m     (blue)

    E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 4.83 10⁻⁷

    E = 4.12 10-19 J

The transformation from J to eV is 1 eV = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E = 4.12 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

    E = 2,575 eV
