A baseball starts from rest and rolls 40.0 m down a hill in 10.0 seconds what is the acceleration

1 answer:

3 0

Acceleration is velocity over time. in order to find velocity, you divide distance over time
$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{40}{10} = 4 \\ a = \frac{v}{t} = \frac{4}{10} = 0.4 \: \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }$

How can a volcano develop in the middle of a tectonic plate?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Volcanoes that form away from plate boundaries are created by hotspots. A hotspot is an area in the mantle that is believed to be somewhat hotter than the surrounding material. The rising magma from the hotspot can push its way through the crust and burst out at the surface, forming a volcano.

a uniform metre rule is pivoted at its centre and weights of 5 N and 12 N are hung at the 3 cm and 5 cm marks respectively. how

schepotkina [342]

In order to balance the stick on the pivot, the total "moments" must be equal on both sides. A "moment" is (a weight) x (its distance from the center).

for the 5N weight: Moment = (5N) x (3 cm) = 15 N-cm

for the 12N weight: Moment = (12N) x (5 cm) = 60 N-cm

Sum of the moments trying to pull the stick down on that side = 75 N-cm

Whatever we hang on the other side has to provide a moment of 75 N-cm in the other direction. We have a 25N weight. Where should we hang it ?

(25N) x (distance from the pivot) = 75 N-cm

Distance from the pivot = (75 N-cm) / (25 N)

<em>Distance from the pivot = 3 cm </em>

A uniform, 4.5 kg, square, solid wooden gate 2.0 mm on each side hangs vertically from a frictionless pivot at the center of its

True [87]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w = 1.43\ rad/sec$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of wooden gate is $m_g = 4.5 kg$

The length of side is L = 2 m

The mass of the raven is $m_r = 1.2 kg$

The initial speed of the raven is $u_r = 5.0m/s$

The final speed of the raven is $v_r = 1.5 m/s$

From the law of conservation of angular momentum we express this question mathematically as

Total initial angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate = The Final angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate

The initial angular momentum of the Raven is $m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}$

Note: the length is half because the Raven hit the gate at the mid point

The initial angular momentum of the Gate is zero

Note: This above is the generally formula for angular momentum of square objects

The final angular velocity of the Raven is $m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}$

The final angular velocity of the Gate is $\frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w$

Substituting this formula

$m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2} = \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w + m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}$

$\frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w = m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2} - m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}$

$\frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w = m_r * \frac{L}{2} * [u_r - v_r]$

Where $w$ is the angular velocity

Substituting value

$\frac{1}{3} (4.5)(2)^2 w = 1.2 * \frac{2}{2} * [5 - 1.5]$

$6w = 4.2$

$w = \frac{6}{4.2}$

$w = 1.43\ rad/sec$

julie is cycling at a speed of 3.4 meters/second. if the combined mass if the bicycle and julies is 30 kilograms. what is the ki

puteri [66]

You can solve this using the equation k=mv^2. k is the kinetic energy, m is the mass, and is the velocity. k=30(3.4)^2, so the answer is 346.8 J.
