A merry-go-round at a playground is a circular platform that is mounted parallel to the ground and can rotate about an axis that

is perpendicular to the platform at its center. the angular speed of the merry-go-round is constant, and a child at a distance of 1.4 m from the axis has a tangential speed of 2.2 m/s. what is the tangential speed of another child, who is located at a distance of 2.1 m from the axis?

Since angular speed is persistent, v/r is constant.
Where:

 v is tangential speed; and

 r is distance from axis.

 

Then equate v/r in both cases to get v in the second case.

Hence, speed = 2.2 x 2.1 / 1.4 meters

= 3.3 meters / seconds

 

Alternative solution would be:

w = 2.2 / 1.4 = 1.57

v = rw = 2.1 x 1.57 = 3.3 meters / seconds

A 50kg girl is playing soccer. She runs towards the ball at a speed of 7 m/s. How much kinetic energy does she have as she runs
stepladder [879]
The calculation for kinetic energy is this

KE = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2(50)(7^2)

KE = 1/2(49•50)

KE = 1225 kgm^2/s^2.

Or simply 1225 J.

She possess this much energy when she runs.

Suppose 1 kg of Hydrogen is converted into Helium. a) What is the mass of the He produced? b) How much energy is released in thi
morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) m = 993 g

b) E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

Explanation:

atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794

4 hydrogen atom will make a helium atom = 4 × 1.00794 = 4.03176

we know atomic mass of helium = 4.002602

difference in the atomic mass of helium = 4.03176-4.002602 = 0.029158

fraction of mass lost = \dfrac{0.029158}{4.03176}= 0.00723

loss of mass for 1000 g = 1000 × 0.00723 = 7.23

a) mass of helium produced = 1000-7.23 = 993 g (approx.)

b) energy released in the process

E = m c²

E = 0.00723 × (3× 10⁸)²

E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 5.2 x 107 m/s to the
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1.1648×10⁻¹¹ N

Explanation:

Using

F = qvBsinФ..................... Equation 1

Where F = Force on the proton, q = charge, v = velocity, B = magnetic Field, Ф = angle between the magnetic Field and the velocity.

Note: The angle between v and B = 90°

Given: v = 5.2×10⁷ m/s, B = 1.4 T, q = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C, Ф = 90°

Substitute into equation 1

F = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹(5.2×10⁷)(1.4)sin90°

F = 11.648×10⁻¹²

F = 1.1648×10⁻¹¹ N.
