The cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by an object is the measure of change in speed or velocity of that object with respect to time. So the initial and final velocities play a major role in determining the acceleration of the cyclist. As here the initial velocity of the cyclist is the speed at rest and that is given as 0 m/s. Then after 3 seconds, the velocity of the cyclist changes to 9 m/s.

Then acceleration = change in velocity/Time.

$Acceleration = \frac{Change in velocity}{Time taken}$

Acceleration = (9-0)/3=9/3=3 m/s².

So the cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Find the period of the leg of a man who is 1.83 m in height with a mass of 67 kg. The moment of inertia of a cylinder rotating a

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

$T = 1.108\,s$

Explanation:

The period of a physical pendulum is:

$T = \sqrt{\frac{I_{O}}{m\cdot g \cdot L} }$

$T=2\cdot \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{1}{3}\cdot m \cdot L^{2} }{m\cdot g\cdot L} }$

$T=2\cdot \pi \sqrt{\frac{L }{3\cdot g} }$

The length of the leg is approximately the height of the person:

$L = 0.915\,m$

The period is:

$T = 2\cdot \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.915\,m}{3\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} }$

$T = 1.108\,s$

In 1610, galileo used his telescope to discover four prominent moons around jupiter. their mean orbital radii a and periods t ar

katrin2010 [14]

Time period of any moon of Jupiter is given by

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}$

from above formula we can say that mass of Jupiter is given by

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

now for part a)

$r = 4.22 * 10^8 m$

T = 1.77 day = 152928 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (4.22 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(152928)^2}$

$M = 1.9* 10^{27} kg$

Part B)

$r = 6.71 * 10^8 m$

T = 3.55 day = 306720 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (6.71 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(306720)^2}$

$M = 1.9* 10^{27} kg$

Part c)

$r = 10.7 * 10^8 m$

T = 7.16 day = 618624 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (10.7 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(618624)^2}$

$M = 1.89* 10^{27} kg$

PART D)

$r = 18.8 * 10^8 m$

T = 16.7 day = 1442880 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (18.8 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(1442880)^2}$

$M = 1.889* 10^{27} kg$

Joe and Max shake hands and say goodbye. Joe walks east 0.40 km to a coffee shop, and Max flags a cab and rides north 3.65 km to

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

3.67 km

Explanation:

Joe distance towards coffee shop is,

$OB=0.40 km$

And the Max distance towards bookstore is,

$OA=3.65 km$

Now the distance between the Joy and Max will be,

By applying pythagorus theorem,

$AB=\sqrt{OB^{2}+OA^{2}}$

Substitute 0.40 km for OB and 3.65 km for OA in the above equation.

$AB=\sqrt{0.40^{2}+3.65^{2}}\\AB=\sqrt{13.4825} \\AB=3.67 km$

Therefore the distance between there destination is 3.67 km.

The mass needed at peg 1 is a 5g mass.

The 15g should hang at peg 5.

The reason is force x distance clockwise is equal to force x distance anti-clockwise
