You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

A track star in the broad jump goes into the jump at 12 m/s and launches himself at 20° above the horizontal. How long is he in
emmainna [20.7K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of the broad jump, u = 12 m/s

It is launched at an angle of 20 degrees above the horizontal. Let t is the time for which the track star i in the air before returning to Earth. The motion of the track star in the broad jump can be treat as the projectile motion. The time of flight of the projectile is given by :

t=\dfrac{2u\ sin\theta}{g}

Putting all the values in above equation as :

t=\dfrac{2\times 12\times \ sin(20)}{9.8}

t = 0.837 seconds

So, the time for which the track star is in air is 0.837 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 3kg horizontal disk of radius 0.2m rotates about its center with an angular velocity of 50rad/s. The edge of the horizontal di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

From the information given:

The angular speed for the block \omega = 50 \ rad/s

Disk radius (r) = 0.2 m

The block Initial velocity is:

v = r \omega \\ \\  v = (0.2  \times 50) \\ \\  v= 10 \ m/s

Change in the block's angular speed is:

\Delta _{\omega} = \omega - 0 \\ \\ = 50 \ rad/s

However, on the disk, moment of inertIa is:

I= mr^2 \\ \\ I = (3 \times 0.2^2) \\ \\ I = 0.12 \ kgm^2

The time t = 10s

∴

Frictional torques by the wall on the disk is:

T = I \times (\dfrac{\Delta_{\omega}}{t}) \\ \\ = 0.12 \times (\dfrac{50}{10})  \\ \\ =0.6 \ N.m

Finally, the frictional force is calculated as:

F = \dfrac{T}r{}

F= \dfrac{0.6}{0.2} \\ \\ F = 3N
