Answer:

v = 66.7 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of steel cable, L = 600 m

Diameter = 1.2 cm

It is observed that it took 18 s for the pulse to return.

The time taken to cover 600 m will be :

t = T/2

t = 9 s

Let v be the of the pulse. We know that,

v=\dfrac{L}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{600}{9}\\\\v=66.7\ m/s

So, the speed of the pulse is equal to 66.7 m/s.

A small steel roulette ball rolls around the inside of a 30 cm diameter roulette wheel. It is spun at 150 rpm, but is slows to 6
liraira [26]

Solution :

Given

Diameter of the roulette ball = 30 cm

The speed ball spun at the beginning = 150 rpm

The speed of the ball during a period of 5 seconds = 60 rpm

Therefore, change of speed in 5 seconds = 150 - 60

                                                                      = 90 rpm

Therefore,

90 revolutions in 1 minute

or In 1 minute the ball revolves 90 times

i.e. 1 min = 90 rev

     60 sec = 90 rev

        1 sec = 90/ 60 rec

         5 sec = $\frac{90}{60}\times 5$

                   = 75 rev

Therefore, the ball made 75 revolutions during the 5 seconds.
