An astronaut is being tested in a centrifuge. The centrifuge has a radius R and, in starting, rotates according to θ = tn, where

t is in seconds, θ is in radians, and n is a positive integer. Find expressions for the the magnitudes of the astronaut's (a) angular velocity, (b) linear velocity, (c) tangential acceleration, and (d) radial acceleration at a general time t, in terms of the variables given.

Answer:

a) ω=n

b) V = R*n

c) a = 0

d) ar = R*n^2

Explanation:

Angular velocity is given by the derivative of θ:

ω = n

Linear Velocity will be:

V = ω*R = n*R

Tangential acceleration will be the derivative of the linear velocity. Since velovity is constant:

a = 0

Radial acceleration is given by:

ar = V^2/R = (R*n)^2/R=R*n^2

igomit [66]

Answer: Linear speed is 1,670 Kph.

Explanation:

If we assume that the earth is a perfect sphere, and that is spinning itself once every roughly 24 hr, we can get the angular velocity of the Earth, in magnitude, as follows:

ω = 2π / 24 Hr

Now, by definition, an angle is the relationship between the arc s, and the radius r, so we can replace these values in the angular velocity expression, as follows:

ω = (Δs / r) . 1/Δt ⇒ ω = (Δs/Δt). 1/r

But, by definition, Δs/At, is just the linear velocity, v, so we can conclude the following;

ω = v/r ⇒ v = ω. r

So, we can get v, as follows:

v = 2π /24 hr . 6378 Km = 1,670 Km/hr.

Increase the slit width to 1050 nm. What happens to the width of the central bright fringe? (Always remember to wait a few secon
djyliett [7]

Answer:

b.

Explanation:

In case of Single Slit, diffraction will occur.

Then In Single slit Diffraction, width of central fringe is

x_c= 2D\lambda/a


where D= distance b/w screen and slit

a= slit width

\lambda = wavelength

Thus if Screen width increases keeping other factors same then width of central fringe becomes narrower as

x_c\propto 1/a

On increasing the slit width the central bright fringe width The width of the central bright fringe becomes narrower.

On the way to school, Jed traveled 100m north, 300m east, 100 north, 100m east, and 100m north. A.) Find the total distance trav
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Total distance = 700 m

Displacement = 500 m

Explanation:

Notice that Jed travelled a total of 3 x 100 m = 300 m in the North direction, and 300 m + 100 m = 400 m in the East direction. Therefore the total distance he travelled is:  300 + 400 = 700 m.

But the actual displacement is given by the Pythagorean theorem as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle of legs 300 m and 400 m:

displacement = \sqrt{300^2+400^2} =\sqrt{250000} =500\,m
