The answer is 2Hz

Using the formula f= 1/T we can plug in .5 for T and solve for frequency.

REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in the shortest amount of time, you should direct your boat: so that it drifts with the current.

If the boat moves perpendicular to the current, the current flow will be the resistance to the movement of the boat. So, it's better for the boat to drifts perpendicularly with the current.

The best answer is therefore option D.

A block rests on a frictionless horizontal surface and is attached to a spring. When set into simple harmonic motion, the block

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

v₀ = 0.5058 m/s

Explanation:

From the question, for the block to hit the bottle, the elastic potential energy of the spring at the bottle (x = 0.08 m) should be equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy of the spring at x = 0.05 m and the kinetic energy of block at x = 0.05 m

Now, the potential energy of the block at x = 0.08 m is ½kx²

where;

k is the spring constant given by; k = ω²m

ω is the angular velocity of the oscillation

m is the mass of the block.

Thus, potential energy of the spring at the bottle(x = 0.08 m) is;

U = ½ω²m(0.08m)²

Also, potential energy of the spring at the bottle(x = 0.05 m) is;

U = ½ω²m(0.05m)²

and the kinetic energy of the block at x = 0.05 m is;

K = ½mv₀²

Thus;

½ω²m(0.08)² = ½ω²m(0.05)² + ½mv₀²

Inspecting this, ½m will cancel out to give;

ω²(0.08)² = ω²(0.05)² + v₀²

Making v₀ the subject, we have;

v₀ = ω√((0.08)² - (0.05)²)

So,

v₀ = 8.1√((0.08)² - (0.05)²)

v₀ = 0.5058 m/s

A Ferris wheel turns at a constant 150.0 revolutions per hour. (a) Express this rate of rotation in units of radians per second.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

(a) 0.261 rad/s

(b) 1007.72 m

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the Ferris wheel is 150.0 revolutions per hour.

(a) To calculate the angular velocity of the wheel in units of radians per second, you take into account the following equivalence:

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 revolution = 2π radians

You use the previous conversion factors:

$150.0\ \frac{rev}{h}*\frac{2\pi \ rad}{1\ rev}*\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s}=0.261\frac{rad}{s}$

In units of radians per seconds the wheel turns at 0.261 rad/s

(b) To find the arc length described by the wheel, you first calculate the angle described by the wheel in the time t, by using the following formula:

$\theta=\omega t$ (1)
