Answer:

$4 \pi$

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert 2.0 rev into radians:

$1.0 rev = 2\pi rad\\2.0 rev = 4 \pi rad$

This means that the angular speed of the wheel is

$\omega = 2.0 rev/s = 4 \pi rad/s$

The angle through which the wheel rotates in a time t is given by

$\theta=\omega t$

And substituting t=1.0 s, we find

$\theta=(4\pi rad/s)(1.0 s)=4 \pi rad$

4. I drop a pufferfish of mass 5 kg from a height of 5.5 m onto an upright spring of total length 0.5 m and spring constant 3000

KatRina [158]

Answer:

a) 0.28 m or 28 cm is the minimum height above ground the fish reaches.

b) at the height of 0.484 m height , the pufferfish will eventually come to rest.

c) There exists two types of energy remain at the equilibrium point in the system. These are :

Gravitational potential energy = 23.72J

Spring potential energy = 0.384 J

Explanation:

Given that :

Mass of the pufferfish m =5kg

initial height of the fish h =5.5m

length of the spring l =0.5m

Spring constant K =3000N/m

Assuming no energy loss to friction, what is the minimum height above the ground that the pufferfish reaches?

Lets assume that the minimum height the fish reaches is = x meters

Now by using the conservation of energy; we realize that :

Initial total energy = final total energy

Gravitational potential energy =

Gravitational potential energy' + Spring potential energy (kinetic energy is zero in both cases)

$mgh = mgx + \frac{1}{2}K(l-x)^2$

Replacing our given values into the above equation; we have :

$(5)(9.8)(5.5) = (5)(9.5)(x) + \frac{1}{2}(3000)(0.5-x)^2$

269.5 = 47.5 x + 1500(0.5 -x )²

269.5 = 47.5 x + 1500(0.25 - x²)

269.5 = 47.5 x + 375 - 1500 x²

269.5 - 375 = 47.5 x - 1500 x²

-105.5 = 47.5 x - 1500 x²

-105.5 + 1500 x² - 47.5 x = 0

1500 x² - 47.5 x - 105.5 = 0

By using quadratic equation and taking the positive value;

x = 0.28 m or 28 cm is the minimum height above ground the fish reaches.

At the equilibrium position the weight of fish will be equal to the force applied by the spring thus

mg = kx

substituting our given values ; we have:

(5)(9.8) = 3000x

x = 61.22

x = 0.016m : so this is the compression in the spring

Now; to determine the height the pufferfish gets to before it eventually come to rest; we have

(0.5-0.016) m = 0.484m

therefore, at the height of 0.484 m height , the pufferfish will eventually come to rest.

There exists two types of energy remain at the equilibrium point in the system. These are :

Gravitational potential energy = mgh' = (5)(9.8)(0.484)

= 23.72J

and spring potential energy

$=\frac{1}{2}Kx^2\\ = \frac{1}{2}(3000)(0.016)^2\\= 0.384J$

What effect does Earth’s spherical shape have on the amount of sunlight that reaches the equator?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Because the Earth is a sphere, the surface gets much more intense sunlight, hence heat, at the equatorthan at the poles.

2. Which statement is correct about the Krebs cycle?

IRINA_888 [86]

The correct option is

a. Acetyl-CoA combines with a pyruvic acid to make glucose in the Krebs cycle.

Explanation:

The Krebs citric acid cycle happens within the mitochondrial matrix and generates a pool of energy (ATP, NADH, and FADH2) from the oxidization of pyruvate, the tip product of metabolism. Pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and loses dioxide to make acetyl-CoA, a 2-carbon molecule.
