f the CD rotates clockwise at 500 rpmrpm (revolutions per minute) while the last song is playing, and then spins down to zero an

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the angular acceleration is $a = 20.14 rad/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The angular speed of CD is $w_{CD} = 500 rpm = \frac{500 rpm}{\frac{60 \ s }{1 \ min} } * \frac{2 \pi }{ 1 \ rev} = 52.37 rad/s$

time taken to decelerate is $t_{CD} = 2.60\ s$

The final angular speed is $w_f= 0 \ rad/s$

The angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

$a = \frac{w_f - w_{CD}}{t}$

substituting values

$a = \frac{0 - 52.37}{2.60}$

$a = - 20.14 rad/s^2$

The negative sign show that the CD is decelerating but the magnitude is

$a = 20.14 rad/s^2$

When low on gasoline, is it better to increase or decrease the speed of the vehicle? Explain.

sergiy2304 [10]

Yeah!! It is better to decrease the speed of the vehicle so the ejection of gases would happen in slow manner.... then you can save your gasoline

A 6.00-μf parallel-plate capacitor has charges of 40.0 μc on its plates. how much potential energy is stored in this capacitor?

dedylja [7]

Thew energy stored in a capacitor of capacitance $C$ and voltage between the plates $V$ is

$E=\frac{1}{2} CV^2=\frac{1}{2C} Q^2$ .

Substituting numerical value

$E=\frac{1}{2*6*10^{-6}} (40*10^{-6})^2\\ E=133.33\; \mu J$

Vector vector a has a magnitude of 29 units and points in the positive y-direction. when vector vector b is added to vector a ,

Nutka1998 [239]

Good morning.

We have:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a} = 29\overset{\to}{j}}$

Where j is the unitary vector in the direction of the y-axis.

We have that

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a}+\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j}}$

We add the vector -a to both sides:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -\overset{\to}{a} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -29\overset{\to}{j}}\\ \\ \mathsf{\overset{\to}{b}=-47\overset{\to}{j}}$

Therefore, the magnitude of b is 47 units.
