1 answer:
Answer:
d= 1650 km.
Explanation:
- Assuming that sound waves travel along a straight line at a constant speed of 346 m/s, we can find the time needed for the sound to travel the distance of 1.9 m between the astronauts, just applying the definition of average velocity, as follows:
- The electromagnetic waves travel in free space at the same speed of light in vacuum ( since light is a electromagnetic wave indeed), i.e., 3*10⁸ m/s.
- Applying the same formula than in (1) we can solve for the distance d, as follows:

Answer:
(a) 1.093 rad/s^2
(b) 4.375 rad/s
(c) 8.744 rad/s
(d) 67.845 rad
Explanation:
initial angular velocity, ωo = 0
time, t = 8s
angular displacement, θ = 35 rad
(a) Let α be the angular acceleration.
Use second equation of motion for rotational motion
By substituting the values
35 = 0 + 0.5 x α x 8 x 8
α = 1.093 rad/s^2
(b) The average angular velocity is defined as the ratio of total angular displacement to the total time taken .
Average angular velocity = 35 / 8 = 4.375 rad/s
(c) Let ω be the instantaneous angular velocity at t = 8 s
Use first equation of motion for rotational motion
ω = ωo + αt
ω = 0 + 1.093 x 8 = 8.744 rad/s
(d) Let in next 5 seconds the angular displacement is θ.
By substituting the values
θ = 8.744 x 5 + 0.5 x 1.093 x 5 x 5
θ = 67.845 rad
