Scalars are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude (or numerical value) alone.
Vectors are quantities that are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction.

A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 10 nm. Express this diameter in meters. Express this diameter in millimeters. Express th

Fynjy0 [20]

So, the first question is: how many meters are 10 nm?

1nm =<span>0.000000001 m.

So 10 nanometers are </span><span>0.00000001 m!

Now, how many milimeter are those?
let's start with meters, 1 meter are 1000 milimeters.
so </span>
0.00000001*1000=0.<span><span>00001</span> m!

now, micrometers .1 micrometer are 1000 nanometers.
so 10 nanometers are 0.01 micrometers! (1 nanometer is 0.001 micrometers)

A high-speed flywheel in a motor is spinning at 450 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 40.0 kg and

alexira [117]

Answer:

A) $\omega_f=17.503\ rad.s^{-1}$

B) $t=55.6822\ s$

C) $\theta=1312\ rad$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of flywheel, $m=40\ kg$

diameter of flywheel, $d=0.72\ m$

rotational speed of flywheel, $N_i=450\ rpm \Rightarrow \omega_i=\frac{450\times 2\pi}{60} =15\pi\ rad.s^{-1}$

duration for which the power is off, $t_0=35\ s$

no. of revolutions made during the power is off, $\theta=180\times 2\pi=360\pi\ rad$

<u>Using equation of motion:</u>

$\theta=\omega_i.t+\frac{1}{2} \alpha.t^2$

$360\pi=15\pi\times 35+\frac{1}{2} \times \alpha\times35^2$

$\alpha=-0.8463\ rad.s^{-2}$

Negative sign denotes deceleration.

A)

Now using the equation:

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha.t$

$\omega_f=15\pi-0.8463\times 35$

$\omega_f=17.503\ rad.s^{-1}$ is the angular velocity of the flywheel when the power comes back.

B)

Here:

$\omega_f=0\ rad.s^{-1}$

Now using the equation:

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha.t$

$0=15\pi-0.8463\times t$

$t=55.6822\ s$ is the time after which the flywheel stops.

C)

Using the equation of motion:

$\theta=\omega_i.t+\frac{1}{2} \alpha.t^2$

$\theta=15\pi\times 55.68225-0.5\times 0.8463\times 55.68225^2$

$\theta=1312\ rad$ revolutions are made before stopping.

3.) An engineer is designing the runway for an airport. Of the planes that will use the airport,

scoray [572]

Answer: 704

Explanation:Vi = 0 m/s

vf = 65 m/s

a = 3 m/s2

d = ??

vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d

(65 m/s)2 = (0 m/s)2 + 2*(3 m/s2)*d

4225 m2/s2 = (0 m/s)2 + (6 m/s2)*d

(4225 m 2/m2)/(6 m/s2) = d

d = 704 m
