What is the angular position in radians of the minute hand of a clock at 2:55?
2 answers:
Refer to the diagram shown.
There are twelve 5-minute divisions.
Each 5-minute division is equal to 360°/12 = 30°.
By convention, angles are measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis.
The angular position of the minute hand at 2:55 is
θ = 90° + 30° = 120°
Because 360° = 2π radians, therefore
θ = (120/360)*2π = (2π)/3 radians = 2.0944 radians
Answer: (2π)/3 radians ofr 2.0944 radians.

Answer:
Temperature increase = 2.1 [C]
Explanation:
We need to identify the initial data of the problem.
v = velocity of the copper sphere = 40 [m/s]
Cp = heat capacity = 387 [J/kg*C]
The most important data given is the fact that when the shock occurs kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy, therefore it will have to be:
Answer:
1.08 m/s
Explanation:
This can be solved with two steps, first we need to find the time taken to fall 9.5 m, then we can divide the horizontal distance covered with time taken to calculate the velocity.
Time taken to fall 9.5 m
vertical acceleration = a = 9.8 m/s^2.
vertical velocity = 0, (since there is only horizontal component for velocity, )
distance traveled s = 9.5 m.
Substituting these values in the equation
⇒ t= 1.392 sec
Velocity needed
We know the time taken (1.392 s) to travel 1.5 m,
So velocity = 1.5 m / 1.392 s = 1.08 m/s
hence velocity of the diver must be at least 1.08 m/s
