A wheel rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 2.0 rad/s2 starts from rest at t = 0. The wheel has

a diameter of 20 cm. What is the magnitude of the total linear acceleration of a point on the outer edge of the wheel at t = 0.60 s? Hint: To find total linear acceleration (in m/s2)you need to have tangential and radial acceleration . Tangential acceleration can be calculated using angular acceleration at=rα To find redial acceleration you need to calculate final linear speed of that point and use ar=vf2r . And vf=rωf.

Answer:

The total linear acceleration is approximately 0.246 meters per square second.

Explanation:

The total linear acceleration (a) consist in two components, <em>radial</em> (a_{r}) and <em>tangential</em> (a_{t}), in meters per square second:

a_{r} = \omega^{2}\cdot r (1)

a_{t} = \alpha \cdot r (2)

Since both components are orthogonal to each other, the total linear acceleration is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

a = \sqrt{a_{r}^{2}+a_{t}^{2}} (3)

Where:

r - Radius of the wheel, in meters.

\omega - Angular speed, in radians per second.

\alpha - Angular acceleration, in radians per square second.

Given that wheel accelerates uniformly, we use the following kinematic equation:

\omega = \omega_{o}+ \alpha\cdot t (4)

Where:

\omega_{o} - Initial angular speed, in radians per second.

t - Time, in seconds.

If we know that r = 0.1\,m, \alpha = 2\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}, \omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s} and t = 0.60\,s, then the total linear acceleration is:

\omega = \omega_{o}+ \alpha\cdot t

\omega = 1.2\,\frac{rad}{s}

a_{r} = \omega^{2}\cdot r

a_{r} = 0.144\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

a_{t} = \alpha \cdot r

a_{t} = 0.2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

a = \sqrt{a_{r}^{2}+a_{t}^{2}}

a \approx 0.246\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The total linear acceleration is approximately 0.246 meters per square second.

A wave of wavelength 0.3 m travels 900 m in 3.0 s. Calculate its frequency.
Crank

Answer: 1000 Hz

Explanation:

You can calculate frequency by dividing velocity by wavelength

Frequency = velocity/wavelength

Find velocity first.

900 m/3 s = 300 m/s

Plug values in to find frequency.

F = (300 m/s)/0.3 m

F = 1000 Hz

When a current of 0.015 A passes through human body at 240 volts p.d it<br><br>causes​
geniusboy [140]

Explanation:

Given that,

Current, I = 0.015 A

Voltage, V = 240 volts

We need to find the resistance. Using Ohm's law we can find it as follows :

V=IR\\\\R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{240}{0.015}\\\\R=16000\ \Omega

So, When a current of 0.015 A passes through human body at 240 volts p.d it  causes​  16000 ohms of resistance.

When lights are wired such that if one bulb fails, the entire string of lights
Viktor [21]

Answer:

series

Explanation:

In a series circuit all the components are attached to one branch, so that if one component fails, all the others stop working. In a parallel circuit, however, the components are wired in separate branches, so that even if one branch fails, the rest are not disrupted.
