Mary starts at the edge of a circular platform that is slowly rotating on a frictionless axle. She then walks towards the opposi
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The motion of Mary along the circular path is a centripetal.

As Mary moves from one edge of the circular platform to the other edge, she is covering a distance which is the radius of the circular path at a velocity.

According to the relationship

w = v/r where

w is the angular velocity

r is the radius

v is the linear velocity

Initially, before Mary starts, her linear speed is zero and her angular velocity is also zero. As she move towards the opposite edge, she is covering a distance of radius r. According to the formula, increase in radius will leads to decrease in her angular velocity and vice versa. As Mary starts moving towards the centre of the circular path, her angular velocity increases, at the centre of the platform, her angular velocity is at maximum at this point. As she moves further from the center to the other edge, her angular velocity decreases due to increase in distance covered across the circular path.

A 6.00 A current runs through a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm) and through a light bulb. Copper has 8.5×1028 free elect
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Current, I = 6 A

diameter of wire, d = 2.05 mm

number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.5 x 10^28

If the diameter is doubled,

The resistance of the wire is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire, so the resistance is  one forth an the current is directly proportional to the diameter of the wire so the current is four times the initial value.

A hair dryer draws a current of 10 A plugged into a 120 V outlet. What is the resistance of the hair dryer?
Ganezh [65]
<span>This problem can be solved by the formula used to find resistance. The formula is R=V/I which basically means divide the Voltage by the Current to find the Resistance in an object. Ohm's law.</span>

Question - Does gum affect a student's performance in school?
Mars2501 [29]

Independent variable: the interdependent variable in this example, could be a number of things but the main one is what type of brand is the gum and what kind is it.

Dependent variable: the dependent variable is what you are trying to find so in this case, you are trying to find does gum affect a student's performance.This is the Dependent variable.

Hope I helped!

A tuning fork labeled 392 Hz has the tip of each of its two prongsvibrating with an amplitude of 0.600mma) What is the maximum s
DanielleElmas [232]

a) 1.48 m/s

The tuning fork is moving by simple harmonic motion: so, the maximum speed of the tip of the prong is related to the frequency and the amplitude by

v_{max}=\omega A

where

v_{max} is the maximum speed

\omega is the angular frequency

A is the amplitude

For the tuning fork in the problem, we have

\omega=2\pi f=2 \pi(392 Hz)=2462 rad/s, where f is the frequency

A=0.600 mm=6\cdot 10^{-4} m is the amplitude

Therefore, the maximum speed is

v_{max}=(2462 rad/s)(6\cdot 10^{-4}m)=1.48 m/s

b)  3.0\cdot 10^{-5} J

The fly's maximum kinetic energy is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2

where

m=0.0270 g=2.7\cdot 10^{-5} kg is the mass of the fly

v_{max}=1.48 m/s is the maximum speed

Substituting into the equation, we find

K=\frac{1}{2}(2.7\cdot 10^{-5}kg)(1.48 m/s)^2=3.0\cdot 10^{-5} J
