7 0

Answer:

━☆゚.*・。゚If <em>the angle is the angle between the eastern axis and the vector, then the leg adjacent the angle is the x-component and the leg opposite the angle is the y-component. Thus, the cosine function is used to calculate the x-component and the sine function is used to calculate the y</em>

The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours. What is the earth's angular speed? What is the speed of a point
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

a) w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

b) v1 = 463.1 m/s

c) v1 = 440.433 m/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The radius of the earth,  R = 6.37 * 10 ^6 m

- The time period for 1 revolution T = 24 hrs

Find:

What is the earth's angular speed?

What is the speed of a point on the equator?

What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 1/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator?

Solution:

- The angular speed w of the earth can be related with the Time period T of the earth revolution by:

                                  w = 2π / T

                                  w = 2π / 24*3600

                                  w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

- The speed of the point on the equator v1 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                                 v1 = R*w

                                 v1 = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                                 v1 = 463.1 m/s

- The angle θ subtended by a point on earth's surface 1/5 th between the equator and the pole wrt equator is.

                                 π/2  ........... s

                                 x     ............ 1/5 s

                                 x = π/2*5 = 18°    

- The radius of the earth R' at point where θ = 18° from the equator is:

                                R' = R*cos(18)

                                R' = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*cos(18)

                                R' = 6058230.0088 m

- The speed of the point where θ = 18° from the equator v2 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                              v2 = R'*w

                              v2 = (6058230.0088)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                              v2 = 440.433 m/s

Which of the following statements is TRUE about updating the exposure control plan?
iren2701 [21]

Statements that are true as regards exposure control plan and its updating are;

<em>Updates must have the  reflection of changes in tasks as well in procedures.</em>

<em>Updates must reflect changes in positions that affect occupational exposure.</em>

<em>Updates must have the cost of PPE that is needed and  necessary to reduce exposure</em>

An exposure control plan can be regarded as  the framework for compliance between the employer and the workers.

  • This framework give room for the employer to creates a written plan that will help in protecting their workers from bloodborne pathogens.

  • This plan gives hope to workers in term of protection when working with their Employer.

  • There are some elements that is associated with  Exposure Control Plan, and theses are;
  1. Health hazards as well as  risk that is attributed to  each product in the worksite.
  2. Statement of purpose.
  3. procedures and practices in a written form
  4. Responsibilities from the Manager, CEO, designated resources and employer.

Therefore, exposure control plan is avenue to protect workers from bloodborne pathogens.

A stone is dropped from the top of a tower. What is its velocity after 3.0 seconds?
kap26 [50]

For purposes of completing our calculations, we're going to assume that
the experiment takes place on or near the surface of the Earth. 

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about 9.8 m/s², directed toward the
center of the planet.  That means that the downward speed of a falling object
increases by 9.8 m/s for every second that it falls.

3 seconds after being dropped, a stone is falling at (3 x 9.8) = 29.4 m/s. 

That's the vertical component of its velocity.  The horizontal component is
the same as it was at the instant of the drop, provided there is no horizontal
force on the stone during its fall.

8) Find the X and Y component of 10degree vector that has 5N.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Fx  = 4.92 [N]

Fy = 0.868 [N]

Explanation:

Let's take the 10 degrees as a measure from the horizontal component to the vector.

Thus taking the components in the X & y axes respectively:

Fx = 5*cos(10) = 4.92 [N]

Fy = 5*sin(10) = 0.868 [N]
