An alligator swims to the left with a constant velocity of 5 \,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text s}5

Physics
1 answer:
dexar [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The alligator will take t = 10 s to reach the final speed of 35 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the initial speed of the alligator is 5 m/s

then it accelerate by given acceleration to reach the final speed of 35 m/s

so we will have

v_i = 5 m/s

v_f = 35 m/s

a = 3m/s^2

now we have

v_f = v_i + at

35 = 5 + 3 t

t = 10 s

A disk rotates about its central axis starting from rest and accelerates with constant angular acceleration. At one time it is r
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity is 0

ωo=0rad/s

It has angular velocity of 11rev/sec

ωi=11rev/sec

1rev=2πrad

Then, wi=11rev/sec ×2πrad

wi=22πrad/sec

And after 30 revolution

θ=30revolution

θ=30×2πrad

θ=60πrad

Final angular velocity is

ωf=18rev/sec

ωf=18×2πrad/sec

ωf=36πrad/sec

a. Angular acceleration(α)

Then, angular acceleration is given as

wf²=wi²+2αθ

(36π)²=(22π)²+2α×60π

(36π)²-(22π)²=120πα

Then, 120πα = 8014.119

α=8014.119/120π

α=21.26 rad/s²

Let. convert to revolution /sec²

α=21.26/2π

α=3.38rev/sec

b. Time Taken to complete 30revolution

θ=60πrad

∆θ= ½(wf+wi)•t

60π=½(36π+22π)t

60π×2=58πt

Then, t=120π/58π

t=2.07seconds

c. Time to reach 11rev/sec

wf=wo+αt

22π=0+21.26t

22π=21.26t

Then, t=22π/21.26

t=3.251seconds

d. Number of revolution to get to 11rev/s

∆θ= ½(wf+wo)•t

∆θ= ½(0+11)•3.251

∆θ= ½(11)•3.251

∆θ= 17.88rev.

In your own words, explain why we see a rainbow or colorful sunset. Explain the properties and interactions that make this displ
Maksim231197 [3]
Wee see rainbows due to the geometries of the raindrops. when the sun shines behind, rays of light enter the raindrops and this light are refracted. The lights are then reflected from the back of the raindrop and refracted again as it passes the rain drop. Refraction in this sense is the cause for splitting the light into several colors.

When you encounter a yellow light as you approach an intersection what is the safest approach to take?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
This isn't a physics question really, but you should slow down unless you don't believe you can stop in time or don't believe it is safe to stop quickly (say you see someone driving very close behind you and you don't think they're paying attention). In general, if you think that by staying at your current speed your back tires will cross the ending lines of the intersection by the time the light turns red, it is safe to go through the yellow light. However, this is a thing you'll develop a feel for as you're driving, when in doubt, just slow down, just watch slamming on your breaks if there is someone behind you, sometimes people will see the yellow light when they're behind you and they'll speed up behind you so they'll "make it" before the light turns yellow. While this isn't illegal, since they're not technically running the red light, you should never speed up going up to a yellow light, if you need to speed up to make it before it turns red, you shouldn't make the light, just stop, this is especially bad if someone is directly in front of you and is likely to stop at the yellow light while the person behind them speeds up. This causes a lot of accidents.

A mass of 1000 kg drops from a height of 10 m on a platform of negligible mass. It is desired to design a spring and dashpot on
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

k = 5\times 10^{4}\ N/m

b = 0.707\times 10^{3}

t = 7.1\times 10^{- 5}\ s

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the block, m = 1000 kg

Height, h = 10 m

Equilibrium position, x = 0.2 m

Now,

The velocity when the mass falls from a height of 10 m is given by the third eqn of motion:

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2gh

where

u = initial velocity = 0

g = 10m/s^{2}

Thus

v = \sqrt{2\times 10\times 10} = 10\sqrt{2}\ m/s

Force on the mass is given by:

F = mg = 1000\times 10 = 10000 N = 10\ kN

Also, we know that the spring force is given by:

F = - kx

Thus

k = \frac{F}{x} = \frac{10000}{0.2} = 5\times 10^{4}\ N/m

Now, to find the damping constant b, we know that:

F = - bv

b = \frac{F}{v} = \frac{10000}{10\sqrt{2}} = 0.707\times 10^{3}

Now,

Time required for the platform to get settled to 1 mm or 0.001 m is given by:

t = \frac{0.001}{v} = \frac{0.001}{10\sqrt{2}} = 7.1\times 10^{- 5}\ s
