Answer:

29.2 ft/s

Explanation:

The distance of the light's projection on the wall

y = 13 tan θ

where θ is the light's angle from perpendicular to the wall.

The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds, that is, 2π in 3 seconds,

Angular speed = w = (2π/3)

w = (θ/t)

θ = wt = (2πt/3)

(dθ/dt) = (2π/3)

y = 13 tan θ

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (dθ/dt)

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (2π/3)

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² θ

when θ = 15°

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² (15°)

(dy/dt) = 29.2 ft/s

If a student flicks a stationary 0.1 kg ball with 5N of force for 0.1 seconds. What is its final
Alisiya [41]

5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball = 0.1kg

Force on the ball = 5N

time taken = 0.1s

Unknown:

final speed of the ball = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".

  Force = mass x acceleration      equation 1

Acceleration =

  V is the final velocity

  U is the initial velocity

  T is the time taken

 U = O since it is a stationary body;

      a = \frac{V}{T}

Input "a" into equation 1

  F = m x \frac{V}{T}

 5 = 0.1 x \frac{V}{0.1}

 V = 5m/s
