A disk of radius 25 cm spinning at a rate of 30 rpm slows to a stop over 3 seconds. what is the angular acceleration?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

α = -π/3 rad/s²

θ = 1.5π rad ≈ 4.71 rad

θ = 0.75 rev

Explanation:

30 rev/min (2π rad/rev) / (60 s/min) = π rad/s

α = (ωf - ωi) / t = (0 - π) / 3 = -π/3 rad/s²

θ = ½αt² = ½(π/3)3² = 1.5π rad ≈ 4.71 rad

θ = 1.5π rad / 2π rad/rev = 0.75 rev

Flash floods can cause vehicles to float and fill with water, trapping and drowning people. while especially dangerous at night

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Flash flood refers to the sudden flood that occurs in a particular area due to the heavy and excessive amount of rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms within a few hours. It releases a huge amount of water due to the failure of natural levee as well dam. They are very devastating. During flash flood, the water exerts a massive force which can make vehicles float over water. The <u>six inches of water</u> that flows over an area has the capacity to lift the tyres of small vehicles and carry hem further away.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

What is the voltage of a motor that draws a current of 2 a and produces 240 w of power?

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Here Power = Voltage * Current

So, Voltage = Power/Current

Put the values,

V = 240/2

V = 120 V

In short, Your Final Answer would be: 120 Volts

Hope this helps!

A sharp edged orifice with a 60 mm diameter opening in the vertical side of a large tank discharges under a head of 6 m. If the

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The discharge rate is $Q = 0.0192 \ m^3 /s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The diameter is $d = 60 \ mm = 0.06 \ m$

The head is $h = 6 \ m$

The coefficient of contraction is $Cc = 0.68$

The coefficient of velocity is $Cv = 0.92$

The radius is mathematically evaluated as

$r = \frac{d}{2}$

substituting values

$r = \frac{ 0.06 }{2}$

$r = 0.03 \ m$

The area is mathematically represented as

$A = \pi r^2$

substituting values

$A = 3.142 * (0.03)^2$

$A = 0.00283 \ m^2$

The discharge rate is mathematically represented as

$Q = Cv *Cc * A * \sqrt{ 2 * g * h}$

substituting values

$Q = 0.68 * 0.92* 0.00283 * \sqrt{ 2 * 9.8 * 6}$

$Q = 0.0192 \ m^3 /s$

A 600-kg car traveling at 30.0 m/s is going around a curve having a radius of 120 m that is banked at an angle of 25.0°. The coe

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1593.4N

Explanation:

The sum of the horizontal components of the friction and the normal force will be equal to the centripetal force on the car. This can be represented as

fcostheta + Nsintheta = mv^2/r

Where F = force of friction

Theta = angle of banking

N = normal force

m = mass of car

v = velocity of car

r = radius of curve

The car has no motion in the vertical direction so the sum of forces = 0

The vertical component of the normal force acts upwards whereas the weight of the car and the vertical component friction acts downwards.

Taking the upward direction to be positive,rewrite the equation above to get:

Ncos thetha = mg - fsintheta =0

Ncistheta = mg + fain theta

N = mg/cos theta + sintheta/ costheta

fcostheta +[mg/costheta + ftan theta] sin theta = mv^2/r

Substituting gives:

f = (1/(costheta + tanthetasintheta) + mgtantheta = mv^2/r - mgtantheta)

Substituting given values into the above equation

f = 1/(cos25 + tan 25 )(sin25)[ 600×30/120 - (600×9.81)tan

f = 1593.4N25
