An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.300 rev/s . The magnitude
Salsk061 [2.6K]

1) 1.2 m/s

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the blade at time t = 0.200 s. This is given by

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t

where

\omega_i = 0.300 rev/s is the initial angular velocity

\alpha = 0.895 rev/s^2 is the angular acceleration

Substituting t = 0.200 s, we find

\omega_f = 0.300 + (0.895)(0.200)=0.479 rev/s

Let's now convert it into rad/s:

\omega_f = 2\pi \cdot 0.479 rev/s=3.01 rad/s

The distance of a point on the tip of the blade is equal to the radius of the blade, so half the diameter:

r=\frac{0.800}{2}=0.400 m

And so now we can find the tangential speed at t = 0.200 s:

v=\omega_f r =(3.01)(0.400)=1.2 m/s

2) 2.25 m/s^2

The tangential acceleration of a point rotating at a distance r from the centre of the circle is

a_t = \alpha r

where \alpha is the angular acceleration.

First of all, we need to convert the angular acceleration into rad/s^2:

\alpha = 0.895 rev/s^ \cdot 2 \pi =5.62 rad/s^2

A point on the tip of the blade has a distance of

r = 0.400 m

From the centre; so, the tangential acceleration is

a_t = (5.62)(0.400)=2.25 m/s^2

3) 3.6 m/s^2

The centripetal acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where

v is the tangential speed

r is the distance from the centre of the circle

We already calculate the tangential speed at point a):

v = 1.2 m/s

while the distance of a point at the end of the blade from the centre is

r = 0.400 m

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration is

a=\frac{1.2^2}{0.400}=3.6 m/s^2

A ball is thrown upward from an initial height of 1.5m the ball reaches a height of 5m then falls to the ground . What Is the di
jeka94

Answer:

The distance traveled by the ball is 8.5 m

Explanation:

Initial height of the ball, h₁ = 1.5 m above the ground

final height of the ball, h₂ = 5m

Upward distance = distance traveled by the ball from a height of 1.5m to 5m = 5m - 1.5m = 3.5 m

Downward distance = distance traveled by the ball from 5m height to the ground =5m - 0 = 5m

Total distance traveled = upward distance + downward distance

Total distance traveled = 3.5 m + 5m = 8.5 m

Therefore, the distance traveled by the ball is 8.5 m

Friction occurs when microscopic hills and valleys stick together<br><br> true or false
Reika [66]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Friction occurs because no surface is perfectly smooth. Rougher surfaces have more friction between them. Heavier objects also have more friction because they press together with greater force. Friction produces heat because it causes the molecules on rubbing surfaces to move faster and have more energy.
