Of course !

I lift 1 kilogram 1 meter in 1 second.
You lift 60 kilograms 2 meters in 2 minutes.

My work is 9.8 joules.
Your work is 1,176 joules.

My power is 9.8 watts.
Your power is also 9.8 watts.

In a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

(a) 181.05 m/s²

(b) 13.2°

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the circle (R) = 0.610 m

Angular acceleration (α) = 67.6 rad/s²

Angular speed (ω) = 17.0 rad/s

(a)

Radial acceleration of the ball is given as:

$a_r=\omega^2R$

Plug in the given values and solve for $a_r$ . This gives,

$a_r=(17.0\ rad/s)^2\times (0.610\ m)\\\\a_r=289\times 0.610\ m/s^2\\\\a_r=176.29\ m/s^2$

Now, tangential acceleration is given by the formula:

$a_t=R\alpha$

Plug in the given values and solve for $a_t$ . This gives,

$a_t=(0.610\ m)(67.6\ rad/s^2)\\\\a_t=41.236\ m/s^2$

Now, the magnitude of total acceleration is given as the square root of the sum of the squares of tangential and centripetal accelerations. Therefore,

$a_{Total}=\sqrt{(a_r)^2+(a_t)^2}$

Plug in the given values and solve for total acceleration, $a_{Total}$ . This gives,

$a_{Total}=\sqrt{(176.29)^2+(41.236)^2}\\\\a_{Total}=181.05\ m/s^2$

Therefore, the magnitude of total acceleration is 181.05 m/s².

(b)

Angle of total acceleration relative to radial direction is given by the formula:

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{a_t}{a_r})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{41.236}{176.29})\\\\\theta=13.2\°$

Therefore, the total acceleration makes an angle of 13.2° relative to radial direction.

A ship anchored at sea is rocked by waves that have crests Lim apart the waves travel at 70m/S, at what frequency do the waves r

inessss [21]

Question: A ship anchored at sea is rocked by waves that have crests 100 m apart the waves travel at 70m/S, at what frequency do the waves reach the ship?

Answer:

0.7 Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf............... Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the wave, f = frequency fo the wave, λ = wavelength of the wave

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 70 m/s, λ = 100 m ( distance between successive crest)

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 70/100

f = 0.7 Hz

Hence the frequency at which the wave reach the ship is 0.7 Hz
