Explanation:

The Second Law of Reflection states that the angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection. Therefore, the angle of reflection is same as the angle of incidence, that is, 00. So, the reflected ray will retrace the path of the incident ray.

The motion of an object undergoing constant acceleration can be modeled by the kinematic equations. One such equation is xf=xi+v

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

a = 1.72 m/s²

Explanation:

The given kinematic equation is the 2nd equation of motion. The equation is as follows:

xf = xi + (Vi)(t) + (1/2)(a)t²

where,

xf = the final position = 5000 m

xi = the initial position = 1000 m

Vi = the initial velocity = 15 m/s

t = the time taken = 60 s

a = acceleration = ?

Therefore,

5000 m = 1000 m + (15 m/s)(60 s) + (1/2)(a)(60 s)²

5000 m = 1000 m + 900 m + a(1800 s²)

5000 m = 1900 m + a(1800 s²)

5000 m - 1900 m = a(1800 s²)

a(1800 s²) = 3100 m

a = 3100 m/1800 s²

At takeoff, a commercial jet has a speed of 72 m/s. Its tires have a diameter of 0.89 m. Part (a) At how many rev/min are the ti

34kurt

Answer:

a) Revolutions per minute = 2.33

b) Centripetal acceleration = 11649.44 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Angular velocity is the ratio of linear velocity and radius.

Here linear velocity = 72 m/s

Radius, r = 0.89 x 0. 5 = 0.445 m

Angular velocity

$\omega =\frac{72}{0.445}=161.8rad/s$

Frequency

$f=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\times \pi}{161.8}=0.0388rev/s=2.33rev/min$

Revolutions per minute = 2.33

b) Centripetal acceleration

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

Here linear velocity = 72 m/s

Radius, r = 0.445 m

Substituting

$a=\frac{72^2}{0.445}=11649.44m/s^2$

Centripetal acceleration = 11649.44m/s²
