Acceleration due to gravity is different in every location, because gravity itself is different in every location.

Here are a few values of gravitational acceleration in various places:

-- Surface of Jupiter . . . 24.8 m/s²

-- Surface of Mars . . . 3.7 m/s²

-- Surface of the Sun . . . 274 m/s²

-- Surface of Earth . . . 9.8 m/s²

-- In orbit 300 miles above the Earth's surface . . . 8.5 m/s²

-- Surface of Earth's Moon . . . 1.6 m/s²

a length 650 cm of thin thread wraps around a cylinder exactly 30 times calculate the circumference and the radius of the cylind

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

circumference= 65/3 cm = 21.67 cm

radius R = 3.45 cm

Explanation:

To calculate the length of the circumference of the cylinder, we divide 650 cm by 30 (the number of times it wrapped exactly around it)

length of circumference= 65/3 cm = 21.67 cm

now use the formula of the circumference length to find the radius (R):

circumference length = 2 * pi * R

65/3 = 2 * pi * R

R = 65 / (6 pi)

R = 3.45 cm

A wire 6.90 m long with diameter of 2.15 mm has a resistance of 0.0320 Ω. Find the resistivity of the material of the wire. rho

spayn [35]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1.68 x 10⁻⁸Ωm

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The resistance (R) of a wire is related to its length(L), its material resistivity(ρ) and its crossectional area(A) as follows;

R = ρL/A ------------------------(i)

Where;

A = πd² / 4 [where d = diameter of the wire]

From the question;

L = 6.90m

d = 2.15mm = 0.00215m

R = 0.0320Ω

First calculate the crossectional area (A) of the wire as follows;

A = πd² / 4

[Take π = 3.142]

d = 0.00215m

∴ A = 3.142 x (0.00215)² / 4

∴ A = 0.000003631m²

Now, substitute the values of A, L, and R into equation (i) as follows;

R = ρL/A

0.0320 = ρ x 6.90 / 0.000003631

0.0320 = 1900302.95 x ρ

Solve for ρ;

=> ρ = 0.0320 / 1900302.95

=> ρ = 1.68 x 10⁻⁸Ωm

Therefore, the resistivity of the material of the wire is 1.68 x 10⁻⁸Ωm

Nataliya [291]

Question in proper order

The rotational kinetic energy term is often called the <em>kinetic energy </em><em>in</em> the center of mass, while the translational kinetic energy term is called the <em>kinetic energy </em><em>of</em> the center of mass.

You found that the total kinetic energy is the sum of the kinetic energy in the center of mass plus the kinetic energy of the center of mass. A similar decomposition exists for angular and linear momentum. There are also related decompositions that work for systems of masses, not just rigid bodies like a dumbbell.

It is important to understand the applicability of the formula

$Ktot=Kr+Kt$

Which of the following conditions are necessary for the formula to be valid?

a. The velocity vector $v$ must be perpendicular to the axis of rotation

b.The velocity vector $v$ must be perpendicular or parallel to the axis of rotation

c. The moment of inertial must be taken about an axis through the center of mass

Answer:

Option c

Explanation:

$K_{total} = K_{rotational}+K_{translational}$

The first two conditions are untrue, this is because, you can have rotation in any direction and translation in any direction of any collection of masses. Rotational and translational velocities of masses do not depend on each other

The last statement is true because by definition, the moment of inertia, which is a measure of reluctance, is usually taken about a reference point which is the center of mass
