You sit at the outer rim of a Ferris Wheel that rotates 2 revolutions per minute (RPM). What would your rotational speed be if y

ou were instead clinging to a position halfway from the center to the outer rim. Be sure to provide at least 3 to 4 complete content related sentences and show any work needed to support your answer

Your rotational speed would still be the same. This is because all parts of the Ferris wheel rotate together. Your linear speed however would change. That is a function of radius. But the question is asking about rotational speed and that does not change in this situation

Answer:

The rotational speed will be the same

Explanation:

When there is a circular motion involved (as in this case with the Ferris Wheel), the rotational speed is defined as the ratio between the angle covered \Delta \theta and the time taken to cover that angle (\Delta t):

\omega = \frac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}

Since all the points along a radius of the the Ferris Wheel rotates coherently, they cover the same angular distance in the same amount of time, so the rotational speed is always the same for every point of the Wheel. This means that if you change the distance by moving halfway from the centre, the rotational speed is still 2 revolutions per minutes, because a point halfway from the centre also covers 2 complete revolutions in a minute.

Heat engines take input energy in the form of heat, use some of that energy to do work, and exhaust the remainder. Similarly, a
Elanso [62]

Answer:

a).Q_{h}=1.5x10^5J

b).Q_{c}=13.2x10^3J

Explanation:

a).

Using the law of thermodynamic and using to isovolumetric

ΔU=Qh

Q_{h}=\frac{W_{net}}{Efficiency}

So to determine the internal energy knowing the work it do

Q_{h}=\frac{1.5x10^4J}{0.10}=1.5x10^5J

b).

Efficiency is the work done in relation of the work apply in this case to produce heat so:

E=\frac{Q_{h}-Q_{c}}{Q_{h}}

Solve to Qc

Q_{c}=Q_{h}*[1-E]

Q_{c}=1.5x10^4J*(1-0.10)

Q_{c}=13.2x10^3J
