<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

one foot; four feet

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • When using straight ladders, the base of the ladder should be <u>one foot</u> away from the wall or other vertical surface for every <u>four feet</u> of height to the point of support.
  • The Four-to-one rule ladder safety requires that for every four feet of height climbed, move the base one foot away from the wall.
  • <em><u>It is always important to remember the 4-to-1 rule for ladder safety so as to avoid home improvement injuries.</u></em>

A mass of 240 grams oscillates on a horizontal frictionless surface at a frequency of 2.5 Hz and with amplitude of 4.5 cm.
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

(a) The spring constant is 59.23 N/m

(b) The total energy involved in the motion is 0.06 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass, m = 240 g = 0.24 kg

frequency, f = 2.5 Hz

amplitude of the oscillation, A = 4.5 cm = 0.045 m

The  angular speed is calculated as;

ω = 2πf

ω = 2 x π x 2.5

ω = 15.71 rad/s

(a) The spring constant is calculated as;

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega ^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\k = m\omega ^2\\\\where;\\\\k \ is \ the \ spring \ constant\\\\k = (0.24) \times (15.71)^2\\\\k = 59.23 \ N/m

(b) The total energy involved in the motion;

E = ¹/₂kA²

E = (0.5) x (59.23) x (0.045)²

E = 0.06 J

A car accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a speed of 24.3 m/s in 9.1 s. The diameter of a tire is 80.2 cm. Find the numb
BaLLatris [955]

By using first and third equation of motion, the number of revolutions the tire makes during this motion is 43 rev.

ANGULAR MOTION

Since the car accelerate from rest, initial velocity will be zero.

Given that a car accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a speed of 24.3 m/s in 9.1 s. The following are the given parameters

  • Initial velocity U = 0
  • Final velocity V = 24.3 m/s
  • Time t = 9.1 s

If the diameter of a tire is 80.2 cm, to find the number of revolutions the tire makes during this motion, we must first calculate the distance travelled by the car by using first and third equation of motion of the car.

First equation

V = U + at

Substitute all necessary parameters into the equation.

24.3 = 0 + 9.1a

a = 24.3/9.1

a = 2.67 m/s^{2}

Third Equation of motion

V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS

Substitute all the necessary parameters

24.3^{2} = 0 + 2 x 2.67 x S

590.49 = 5.34S

S = 590.49 / 5.34

S = 110.58 m.

Given that the diameter of a tire is 80.2 cm,

the radius (r) will be 80.2/2 = 40.1 cm

convert it to meter

r = 40.1/100 = 0.401 m

The Circumference of the tire = 2\pir

Circumference = 2 x 3.143 x 0.401

Circumference = 2.52 m

Assuming no slipping, number of revolutions = 110.58/2.52

Number of revolutions = 43.89 rev.

Number of revolutions = 43 rev.

Therefore, the number of revolutions the tire makes during this motion is 43 rev.

What is the relationship between thermal energy, temperature, pressure?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: When volume is constant, pressure is directly proportional to temperature. When temperature is constant, pressure is inversely proportional to volume. When pressure is constant, volume is directly proportional to temperature.
