Energy transformations in a watefall?

One of the most common energy transformations is the transformation between potential energy and kinetic energy. In waterfalls such as Niagara Falls, potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy. The water at the top of the falls has gravitational potential energy. As the water plunges, its velocity increases. Thanks to google!!!! LOL :)

Complete Question

The angular speed of an automobile engine is increased at a constant rate from 1120 rev/min to 2560 rev/min in 13.8 s.

(a) What is its angular acceleration in revolutions per minute-squared

(b) How many revolutions does the engine make during this 20 s interval?

rev

Answer:

a

$\alpha = 6261 \ rev/minutes^2$

b

$\theta = 613 \ revolutions$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial angular speed is $w_i = 1120 \ rev/minutes$

The angular speed after $t = 13.8 s = \frac{13.8}{60 } = 0.23 \ minutes$ is $w_f = 2560 \ rev/minutes$

The time for revolution considered is $t_r = 20 \ s = \frac{20}{60} = 0.333 \ minutes$

Generally the angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = \frac{w_f - w_i }{t}$

=> $\alpha = \frac{2560 - 1120 }{0.23}$

=> $\alpha = 6261 \ rev/minutes^2$

Generally the number of revolution made is $t_r = 20 \ s = \frac{20}{60} = 0.333 \ minutes$ is mathematically represented as

$\theta = \frac{1}{2} * (w_i + w_f)* t$

=> $\theta = \frac{1}{2} * (1120+ 2560 )* 0.333$

=> $\theta = 613 \ revolutions$
