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

How do base-isolators, the rubber and steel pads under some buildings, reduce earthquake damage?
nika2105 [10]

They absorb the energy of seismic waves.

Explanation:

Base - isolators, rubber and steel pads under buildings reduces earthquake damage by absorbing the energy of seismic waves.

  • Earthquakes are produced by the sudden release of energy within the earth which causes displacement and sharp movement on earth surface.
  • There are four main types of waves that are propagated by seismic waves which wrecks havoc.
  • Understanding the waves and their properties has been useful in designing earthquake resistant structures.
  • Base-isolators, rubber and steel pads helps to absorb seismic waves.
  • When seismic waves are absorbed, they are cut off.
  • This way they cannot cause damage.

You throw a ball straight upward. As it leaves your hand, its speed is 15 m/s. (a) How much time does it take for the ball to re
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

the ball takes 1.53 s to reach the top of its trajectory.

Explanation:

given information:

the speed, v = - 15 m/s (moving upward)

(a) How much time does it take for the ball to reach the top of its trajectory?

we know that the speed for the vertical motion is

v = v₀ - gt, v₀ = 0

where

v = speed (m/s)

g = gravitational force (9.8 m/s²)

t = time (s)

thus

v = - gt

-15 = - 9.8 t

t = 15/9.8

 = 1.53 s

so, the time that is needed by the ball to reach the top its trajectory is 1.53 s
