The object takes 0.5 seconds to complete one rotation, so its rotational speed is 1/0.5 rot/s = 2 rot/s.

Convert this to linear speed; for each rotation, the object travels a distance equal to the circumference of its path, or 2<em>π</em> (1.2 m) = 2.4<em>π</em> m ≈ 7.5 m, so that

2 rot/s = (2 rot/s) • (2.4<em>π</em> m/rot) = 4.8<em>π</em> m/s ≈ 15 m/s

thus giving it a centripetal acceleration of

<em>a</em> = (4.8<em>π</em> m/s)² / (1.2 m) ≈ 190 m/s².

Then the tension in the rope is

<em>T</em> = (50 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ 9500 N.

pogonyaev

Answer:

Explanation:

3.75 * 10^-7

=3.75 * 1/10^7

=3.75/10000000

=3/800000000

any base which has it's power negative do it's reciprocal then the power will be positive.

A force of 3 newtons moves a 10 kilogram mass horizontally a distance of 3 meters. The mass does not slow down or speed up as it
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

9 joules of heat energy was produced

Explanation: there is no acceleration therefore its not a kinetic energy

Energy= force × distance

= 3×3

=9

What effect would this have on the momentum?
Mariana [72]
Momentum describes an object in motion and is determined by the product of two variables: mass and velocity. Mass -- the weight of an object -- is usually measured in kilograms or grams for momentum problems. Velocity is the measure of distance traveled over time and is normally reported in meters per second. Examining the possible changes in these two variables identifies the different effects momentum can have on an object in motion.

A dog is 10 m from a cat, whose speeds are 6 and 5 m / s, respectively. What time does the dog require to catch the cat?
scoray [572]

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

because the cat is moving one m/s slower than the dog, the dog has a relative speed of 1 m/s. 10 meters would take 10 seconds for the dog to cover
