Breanna is standing beside a merry-go-round pushing 19° from the tangential direction and is able to accelerate the ride and her

friends from rest to a frequency of 10 rpm in 9 seconds. Assume the merry-go-round is a uniform disc of radius 2.3 m and has a mass of 750 kg. Rachel (48 kg) and Tayler (46 kg) sit opposite each other on the edge of the ride.
(A) What for did Breanna push with?
(B) How much work did Breanna do?

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts given in the kinematic equations of angular motion that include force, acceleration and work.

Torque in a body is defined as,

\tau_l = F*d

And in angular movement like

\tau_a = I*\alpha

Where,

F= Force

d= Distance

I = Inertia

\alpha = Acceleration Angular

PART A) For the given case we have the torque we have it in component mode, so the component in the X axis is the net for the calculation.

\tau= F*cos(19)*d

On the other hand we have the speed data expressed in RPM, as well

\omega_f = 10rpm = 10\frac{1rev}{1min}(\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})

\omega_f = 1.0471rad/s

Acceleration can be calculated by

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f}{t}

\alpha = \frac{1.0471}{9}

\alpha = 0.11rad/s^2

In the case of Inertia we know that it is equivalent to

I = \frac{1}{2}mr^2 = \frac{1}{2}(750)*(2.3)^2

I = 1983.75kg.m^2

Matching the two types of torque we have to,

\tau_l=\tau_a

Fd=I\alpha

Fcos(19)*2.3=1983.75(0.11)

F=100.34N

PART B) The work performed would be calculated from the relationship between angular velocity and moment of inertia, that is,

W = \frac{1}{2}I\omega_f^2

W= \frac{1}{2}(1983.75)(1.0471)^2

W=1087.51J

_____________________ are structures in cardiac muscle tissue that allow impulses to spread across the heart more rapidly.
Darya [45]

Gap junctions in the intercalated discs allow impulses to be spread across the heart more quickly. This is because gap junctions allow particles/signals to pass through, thus making cells with gap junctions more able to interact.

One more thing—you posted this in the physics section rather than biology.

<span>The speed of sound needs to be given, in the proper form. This will allow for the proper conversion (namely, a multiplication by the Mach rate) to find the actual speed that the aircraft is traveling, compared to how fast sound travels.</span>
