The officer is describing the motorcycle's acceleration

That is, he's describing how the motorcycle's velocity changes when compared to the time. That's the formula for calculating the average acceleration of any body.

To meet a U.S. Postal Service requirement, employees' footwear must have a coefficient of static friction of 0.5 or more on a sp
motikmotik

Answer:

0.79 s

Explanation:

We have to calculate the employee acceleration, in order to know the minimum time. According to Newton's second law:

\sum F_x:f_{max}=ma_x\\\sum F_y:N-mg=0

The frictional force is maximum since the employee has to apply a maximum force to spend the minimum time. In y axis the employee's acceleration is zero, so the net force is zero. Recall that f_{max}=\mu N

Now, we find the acceleration:

\mu N=ma_x\\\mu mg=ma_x\\a_x=\mu g\\a_x=0.83(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\a_x=8.134\frac{m}{s^2}

Finally, using an uniformly accelerated motion formula, we can calculate the minimum time. The employee starts at rest, thus his initial speed is zero:

x=v_0t+\frac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\2x=a_xt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2(3.2m)}{8.134\frac{m}{s^2}}}\\t=0.79 s

A dentist causes the bit of a high-speed drill to accelerate from an angular speed of 1.10 104 rad/s to an angular speed of 3.14
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

3.63 s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the equivalent SUVAT equations for the angular motion.

To find the angular acceleration, we can use the following equation:

\omega_f^2 - \omega_i ^2 =2 \alpha \theta

where

\omega_f = 3.14\cdot 10^4 rad/s is the final angular speed

\omega_i = 1.10 \cdot 10^4 rad/s is the initial angular speed

\theta= 2.00 \cdot 10^4 rad is the angular distance covered

\alpha is the angular acceleration

Re-arranging the formula, we can find \alpha:

\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}=\frac{(3.14\cdot 10^4 rad/s)^2-(1.10\cdot 10^4 rad/s)^2}{2(2.00\cdot 10^4 rad)}=2.16\cdot 10^4 rad/s^2

Now we want to know the time the bit takes starting from rest to reach a speed of \omega_f=7.85\cdot 10^4 rad/s. So, we can use the following equation:

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

where:

\alpha=2.16\cdot 10^4 rad/s^2 is the angular acceleration

\omega_f = 7.85\cdot 10^4 rad/s is the final speed

\omega_i = 0 is the initial speed

t is the time

Re-arranging the equation, we can find the time:

t=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\alpha}=\frac{7.85\cdot 10^4 rad/s-0}{2.16\cdot 10^4 rad/s^2}=3.63 s
