A record player turntable initially rotating at 3313 rev/min is braked to a stop at a constant rotational acceleration. The turn
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a. 16 s b. -1.866 kJ

Explanation:

a. Since the initial rotational speed ω₀= 3313 rev/min = 3313/60 × 2π rad/s = 346.94 rad/s. Its rotational speed becomes ω₁ = 0.75ω₀ in time t = 4 s.

We find it rotational acceleration using α = (ω₁ - ω₀)/t = (0.75ω₀ - ω₀)/t = ω₀(0.75 - 1)/t = -0.25ω₀/t = (-0.25 × 346.94 rad/s)/4 s = -21.68 rad/s².

Since the turntable stops at ω = 0, the time it takes to stop is gotten from

ω = ω₀ + αt and t = (ω - ω₀)/α = (0 - 346.94 rad/s)/-21.68 rad/s² = (-346.94/-21.68) s = 16 s.

So it takes the turntable 16 s to stop.

b. The workdone by the turntable to stop W equals its rotational kinetic energy change.

So, W = 1/2Iω² - 1/2Iω₀² = 1/2 × 0.031 kgm² × 0² - 1/2 × 0.031 kgm² × (346.94 rad/s)² = 0 - 1865.7 J = -1865.7 J = -1.8657 kJ ≅ -1.866 kJ

When does radioactive decay occur
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

C.when the nucleus decays

Explanation:

In chemical reactions, the outermost electrons of atoms are re-arranged somehow without the involvement of the nuclei of the participating atoms of the elements.

Nuclear reactions causes changes within the atomic nucleus. For every atomic nucleus, a specific neutron/proton ratio ensures stability. When the stability ratio differs an atom becomes unstable and splits into one or more other nuclei with the emission of small particles of matter. This is what radioactivity entails.

A resistor with R = 300 Ω and an inductor are connected in series across an ac source that has voltage amplitude 500 V . The rat
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

 Rate of dissipation of energy at resistor

= I² R = 296

current I² = 296/R = 296 / 300

I = 0.9933 A.

Impedence Z = V / I = 500 / .9933

= 503 ohm.

B ) Let it be V

voltage across resistance = 300 x .9933 = 298 v

Now 500² = 298² + V²

V = 401 v

C)  Power factor = R / Z

=300 / 503

= 0.596
