The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper e

nd. Each arm supports a seat suspended from a cable 5.00 m long, the upper end of the cable being fastened to the arm at a point 3.00 m from the central shaft. Does the angle depend on the weight of the passenger for a given rate of revolution?

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of   T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = \frac{g}{\omega^2R}

Hence for a given w , θ depends upon g or weight .

Answer:

In the expression the mass is cancelled out and angle is independent of the weight of the person

Explanation:

Let the swing is rotating with constant angular speed

now due to rotation of swing the string will make some angle with the vertical

now we have

Tcos\theta = mg

T sin\theta = m\omega^2 r

now we will have

tan\theta = \frac{\omega^2 r}{g}

here we know that

r = R + L sin\theta

where

R = 3.00 m

L = 5.00 m

Now as we can see the above expression the mass is cancelled out and angle is independent of the weight of the person

Car B starts at point X and moves clockwise around a circular track at a constant rate of 2 mph. Ten hours later, Car A leaves f
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

20.96 h

Explanation:

The perimeter of the track is 2*pi*r = 20pi miles

In 10 hours, car B would have moved 20miles. So, when Car A leaves from point X, car B is 20pi - 20 miles from point X counter-clockwise and car A.

From here, we can express the distance of A from X like this:

xa = 3t

And the distance of B would be:

xb = 20pi - 20 - 2t

The time t where they would passed each other and put  12 miles between them would be the one where xa - xb is equal to 12:

xa - xb = 12

3t - (20pi - 20 - 2t) = 12

5t = 20 pi - 8

t = (20pi - 8)/5 = 10.96 h

Remember to add this value to the 10 hours car B had already been racing:

t = 20.96h

Now put the names of the planets in increasing order based on their distance from the sun
Anika [276]
The eight planets of the Solar System arranged in order from the sun:

Mercury: 46 million km / 29 million miles (.307 AU)
Venus: 107 million km / 66 million miles (.718 AU)
Earth: 147 million km / 91 million miles (.98 AU)
Mars: 205 million km / 127 million miles (1.38 AU)
Jupiter: 741 million km /460 million miles (4.95 AU)
Saturn: 1.35 billion km / 839 million miles (9.05 AU)
Uranus: 2.75 billion km / 1.71 billion miles (18.4 AU)
Neptune: 4.45 billion km / 2.77 billion miles (29.8 AU)

Astronomers often use a term called astronomical unit (AU) to represent the distance from the Earth to the Sun.

+ Pluto (Dwarf Planet): 4.44 billion km / 2.76 billion miles (29.7 AU)

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:  

Hence the answer is E inside = KQr_{1} /R^{3}.

Explanation:  

E inside = KQr_{1} /R^{3}  

so if r1 will be the same then  

E  \begin{bmatrix}Blank Equation\end{bmatrix} proportional to 1/R3  

so if R become 2R  

E becomes 1/8 of the initial electric field.
