Answer:

The maximum speed is 21.39 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the flat curve, r₁ = 150 m

maximum speed, v_{max} = 32.5 m/s

The maximum acceleration on the unbanked curve is calculated as;

a_c_{max} = \frac{V_{max}^2}{r} \\\\a_c_{max} = \frac{32.5^2}{150} \\\\a_c_{max} = 7.04 \ m/s^2

the radius of the second flat curve, r₂ = 65.0 m

the maximum speed this unbanked curve should be rated is calculated as;

a_c_{max} = \frac{V_{max}^2}{r_2} \\\\V_{max}^2 = a_c_{max}  \ \times \ r_2\\\\V_{max} = \sqrt{a_c_{max}  \ \times \ r_2} \\\\V_{max} =\sqrt{7.04 \ \times \ 65} \\\\V_{max} = 21.39 \ m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed is 21.39 m/s.

n200080 [17]
This is slightly a trick question.

Potential energy = Mass x gravity x height.

The problem gives us the mass (55kg) and his twin brother we can assume has the same mass (55kg).

It also gives us the height (100m) and acceleration from gravity = 9.81m/s

natulia [17]

Answer:

Part a)

KE = 101.4 J

Part b)

N = 0.043 revolution

Part c)

F = 2.7 N

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the rotational kinetic energy of the merry go round is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

KE = \frac{1}{2}84.4(\omega^2)

here we know that

\omega = 2\pi(\frac{14.8}{60})

\omega = 1.55 rad/s

Now we have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(84.4)(1.55^2)

KE = 101.4 J

Part b)

Now we know that work done due to torque = change in kinetic energy

W = KE_f - KE_i

\tau (2N\pi) = 101.4 - 0

375(2\pi N) = 101.4

N = 0.043 revolution

Part c)

In order to stop it in four revolutions we have

\tau(2\pi N) = \Delta KE

FR(2\pi N) = 101.4

F(1.5)(2\pi \times 4) = 101.4

F = 2.7 N

Which one is easy to hold in hand,a glass sheet or a cardboard? give reason
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Opaque materials are those objects which does not allow light to pass through them. Example: - Wooden board, umbrella.

Transparent materials are those objects which allow light to pass through them in straight lines. As a result we can see the objects clearly. Example: - Plane mirror, water.

Translucent materials are those which let some light to pass through them, the light rays get scatter in all directions, so cannot see clearly through them. Example: - Fog, smoke.

Luminous objects are those which emit light on their own. Example:-Sun, firefly.

Non-luminous objects are those which reflect the light from luminous bodies. Example: - Moon, mirror.

Based on the above definitions we can classify the objects as opaque, transparent, translucent, luminous and non-luminous.

Opaque:  A piece of rock, a sheet of aluminium, a mirror, a wooden board, a CD, an umbrella, a wall, a sheet of carbon paper,  a sheet of cardboard.

Transparent: Air, water, a sheet of plane glass.

Translucent: A sheet of polythene, smoke, fog, a sheet of cellophane, a wire mesh.

Luminous: A piece of red hot iron, a lighted fluorescent tube, the flame of a gas burner, a lighted torch, sun, firefly, kerosene stove.

Non – luminous: Air, water, a piece of rock, a sheet of aluminium, a mirror, a wooden  board, a sheet of polythene, a CD, smoke, a sheet of plane glass, fog, an umbrella, a wall, a sheet of carbon paper, a sheet of cardboard, a sheet of cellophane, a wire mesh, kerosene stove, moon.
