Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat.
Answer:
(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s
(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²
(c) μs = 0.5
Explanation:
(a)
The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:
ω = 2πf
where,
ω = angular speed = ?
f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s
Therefore,
ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)
<u>ω = 1.57 rad/s
</u>
(b)
The centripetal acceleration can be found as:
ac = v²/R
but,
v = Rω
Therefore,
ac = (Rω)²/R
ac = Rω²
therefore,
ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²
<u>ac = 4.92 m/s²
</u>
(c)
In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:
Centripetal Force = Frictional Force
m*ac = μs*R = μs*W
m*ac = μs*mg
ac = μs*g
μs = ac/g
μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)
<u>μs = 0.5</u>
Answer:
20.4m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Distance = 53m
Time = 5.2s
Unknown:
Acceleration = ?
Solution:
This is a linear motion and we use the right motion equation;
S = ut + 
at²
S is the distance
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
Insert the parameters and solve;
53 = (0x 5.2) + x a x 5.2
53 = 2.6a
a = 
= 20.4m/s²
Answer:
14 m/s
Explanation:
u = 0, h = 10 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2
Use third equation of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2 g h
Here, v be the velocity of ball as it just strikes with the ground
v^2 = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 10
v^2 = 196
v = 14 m/s
Answer:
Explain why it is not advisable to sterilise a clinical thermometer on boiling water at normal atmospheric temperature. A clinical thermometer has small temperature range. The glass will crack/burst due to excessive pressure created by expansion of mercury.
