Two cars enter the Florida Turnpike at Commercial Boulevard at 8:00 AM, each heading for Wildwood. One car’s average speed is 10

miles per hour more than the other’s. The faster car arrives at Wildwood at 11:00 AM, hour before the other car. What was the average speed of each car? How far did each travel?

A disk of a radius 50 cm rotates at a constant rate of 100 rpm. What distance in meters will a point on the outside rim travel d
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

A point on the outside rim will travel 157.2 meters during 30 seconds of rotation.

                         

Explanation:

We can find the distance with the following equation since the acceleration is cero (the disk rotates at a constant rate):

d = v*t

Where:

v: is the tangential speed of the disk

t: is the time = 30 s  

The tangential speed can be found as follows:

v = \omega*r

Where:

ω: is the angular speed = 100 rpm

r: is the radius = 50 cm = 0.50 m

v = \omega*r = 100 \frac{rev}{min}*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}*\frac{1 min}{60 s}*0.50 m = 5.24 m/s    

Now, the distance traveled by the disk is:

d = v*t = 5.24 m/s*30 s = 157.2 m

Therefore, a point on the outside rim will travel 157.2 meters during 30 seconds of rotation.

I hope it helps you!

an ice skater applies a horizontal force to a 20.-kilogram block on frictionless, level ice, causing the block to accelerate uni
stiv31 [10]
The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.

Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg

F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)

F = 83 N

The brakes of a 125 kg sled are applied while it is moving at 8.1 m/s, which exerts a force of 261 N to slow the sled down. How
sammy [17]

Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the sled = 125 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s

v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s

F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261

d = stopping distance for the sled

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)

- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)

d = 15.7 m

A toy train is pushed forward and released at Xi = 4.0 m with a speed of 2.5 m/s. It rolls at a steady speed for 2.0 s, then one
Fittoniya [83]
I don't think that 4m has anything to do with the problem. anyway. here. A___________________B_______C where A is the point that the train was released. B is where the wheel started to stick C is where it stopped From A to B, v=2.5m/s, it takes 2s to go A to B so t=2 AB= v*t = 2.5 * 2 = 5m The train comes to a stop 7.7 m from the point at which it was released so AC=7.7m then BC= AC-AB = 7.7-5 = 2.7m now consider BC v^2=u^2+2as where u is initial speed, in this case is 2.5m/s v is final speed, train stop at C so final speed=0, so v=0 a is acceleration s is displacement, which is BC=2.7m substitute all the number into equation, we have 0^2 = 2.5^2 + 2*a*2.7 0 = 6.25 + 5.4a a = -6.25/5.4 = -1.157 so acceleration is -1.157m/(s^2)
