Answer:

a) The angular speed of the child is approximately 1.257 rad/s

b) The angular speed of the teenager is approximately 1.257 rad/s

c) The tangential speed of the child is approximately 1.257 m/s

d) For the child, r = 2 m

The tangential speed of the teenager is approximately 2.513 m/s

Explanation:

The revolutions per minute, r.p.m. of the merry-go-round = 1 revolution/(5 s)

The radius of the merry-go-round = 2 m

The location of the child = 1 m from the axis

The location of the teenager = 2 m from the axis

1 revolution = 2·π radians

Therefore, we have;

The angular speed, ω = (Angle turned)/(Time elapsed) = (2·π radians)/(5 s)

∴ The angular speed of the merry-go-round, ω = 2·π/5 radians/second

a) The angular speed of the child = The angular speed of the merry-go-round = 2·π/5 radians/second ≈ 1.257 rad/s

b) The angular speed of the teenager = The angular speed of the merry-go-round = 2·π/5 radians/second ≈ 1.257 rad/s

c) The tangential speed, v = r × The angular speed, ω

Where;

r = The radius of rotation of the object

For the child, r = 1 m

The tangential speed of the child = 1 m × 2·π/5 radians/second = 2·π/5 m/s ≈ 1.257 m/s

d) For the child, r = 2 m

The tangential speed of the teenager = 2 m × 2·π/5 radians/second = 4·π/5 m/s ≈ 2.513 m/s

A small bug is lying resting when nine ants simultaneously ambush it and begin pulling it in different directions. They are each

xxMikexx [17]

Answer: The bug will remain motionless

Explanation:

According to Newton's first Law of Motion (sometimes called Law of Inertia):

<em>An object at rest or describing a uniform straight line motion (moving at constant velocity), will remain at rest or moving unless an external force is applied to it and changes its state of rest or motion. </em>

In other words:

An object or body will keep its state of motion until an external force changes its state

This means that objects tend to remain in its state of motion, and is the definition of the inertia, as well.

In addition, according to his law, an object in rest can be in equilibrium (net force equals to zero), and a moving object can also be in equilibrium, as long as it keeps a constant velocity.

<h2>This is why the bug, which is at rest will remain at rest, although the ants are simultaneously pulling it in different directions, since the resultant of all these forces is zero.</h2>

One of the dangers of tornados and hurricanes is the rapid drop in air pressure that is associated with such storms. Assume that

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

45930.52N

Explanation:

Net force = (internal pressure - external pressure)× area of window

Net force = (1.02 - 0.910)atm × 2.03m × 2.03m = 0.11atm × 4.1209m^2 = 0.11 × 101325N/m^2 × 4.1209m^2 = 45930.52N

Ignoring air resistance and the little friction from the plastic tube, the magnet was a freely-falling object in each trial. If

Answer:

emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen $40 \mathrm{m}$

Explanation:

We know, from faraday's law-

$e m f=-N \frac{\Delta \Phi}{\Delta T}$

and $\Phi=B . A$

So, as the height increases the velocity with which it will cross the ring will also increase. $(v=\sqrt{2 g h})$

Given

$\mathrm{V} 1(\text { Speed at } 40 \mathrm{m})=2 \mathrm{x} \mathrm{V} 2(\text { speed at } 10 \mathrm{m})$

$\sqrt{2 g h_{2}}=2 \times \sqrt{2 g h_{1}}=28.28 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

Now, from $40 \mathrm{cm}$

$V_{3}=\sqrt{2 g h_{3}}=\sqrt{2 \times 10 \times 0.4}=2.82 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

From equation a and b we see that velocity when dropped from $40 \mathrm{m}$ is 10 times greater when height is 40 $\mathrm{cm}$ so, emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen $40 \mathrm{m}$
