A bicycle tire is spinning counterclockwise at 2.70 rad/s. During a time period Δt = 1.50 s, the tire is stopped and spun in the

Andru [333]

Answer:

Δω = -5.4 rad/s

αav = -3.6 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial angular velocity = ωi = 2.70 rad/s

Final angular velocity = ωf = -2.70 rad/s (negative sign is

due to the movement in opposite direction)

Change in time period = Δt = 1.50 s

Required:

Change in angular velocity = Δω = ?

Average angular acceleration = αav = ?

Solution:

Angular velocity (Δω):

Δω = ωf - ωi

Δω = -2.70 - 2.70

Δω = -5.4 rad/s.

Average angular acceleration (αav):

αav = Δω/Δt

αav = -5.4/1.50

αav = -3.6 rad/s²

Since, the angular velocity is decreasing from 2.70 rad/s (in counter clockwise direction) to rest and then to -2.70 rad/s (in clockwise direction) so, the change in angular velocity is negative.

Which statements describe velocity and acceleration? Check all that apply.

Tom [10]

Velocity is defined by rate of change in the position

which we can also write as

$v = \frac{ds}{dt}$

while acceleration is defined as rate of change in velocity

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

so acceleration and velocity both are rate of change in position and rate of change in velocity with respect to time respectively

out of all above statement the correct answer must be

Acceleration equals change in velocity divided by time.

A ball is released from the top of a tower of height h meters. it takes T seconds to reach the ground . what is the position of

alekssr [168]

Answer:the

8/9 h

Explanation:

Height = 1/2 a T^2 now change to T/3

now height = 1/2 a (T/3)^2 = 1/9 1/2 a T^2 <===== it is 1/9 of the way down or 8/9 h

To calibrate your calorimeter cup, you first put 45 mL of cold water in the cup, and measure its temperature to be 24.7 °C. You

drek231 [11]

Answer : The heat change of the cold water in Joules is, $1.6\times 10^3J$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of cold water.

As we know that the density of water is 1 g/mL. The volume of cold water is 45 mL.

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

$Mass=Density\times Volume=1g/mL\times 45mL=45g$

Now we have to calculate the heat change of cold water.

Formula used :

$Q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)$

where,

Q = heat change of cold water = ?

m = mass of cold water = 45 g

c = specific heat of water = $4.184J/g^oC$

$T_1$ = initial temperature of cold water = $24.7^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $33.4^oC$

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

$Q=45g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (33.4-24.7)^oC$

$Q=1638.036J=1.6\times 10^3J$

Therefore, the heat change of cold water is $1.6\times 10^3J$

what times are the moon phases visible? My science teacher said that the phases of the moon are only visible at sertant times of

klio [65]

Your teacher is right. The moon can be seen early in the morning sometimes and late at night. Different phases are only visible on certain days as one day might be full quarter, the next full moon, the next first quarter, etc.
