a) 1.57 m/s
The sock spins once every 2.0 seconds, so its period is
T = 2.0 s
Therefore, the angular velocity of the sock is
The linear speed of the sock is given by
where
is the angular velocity
r = 0.50 m is the radius of the circular path of the sock
Substituting, we find:
B) Faster
In this case, the drum is twice as wide, so the new radius of the circular path of the sock is twice the previous one:
At the same time, the drum spins at the same frequency as before, therefore the angular frequency as not changed:
Therefore, the new linear speed would be:
And substituting,
So, we see that the linear speed has doubled.
Explanation:
Remember that power is defined as how much Work is done per unit of time.
Work is defined as the amount of force applied across a certain distance.
Since in both cases of climbing the ladder (on Earth and the moon), Luke coveres the same amount of <em>distance </em>in the same amount of <em>time</em>, we are only left with one difference between the two cases - gravity.
If you were to carry your backpack on the moon with the same load of text books, it would take less force to pick it up on the moon. Therefore, Luke expends less effort on the environment with less gravity - the moon.
To find the difference factor - you would want to divid the gravitational contants between earth and the moon.
