A mixing blade on a food processor extends out 3 inches from its center. if the blade is turning at 600 revolutions per minute,
7nadin3 [17]
First let's convert everything into SI units.
The length of the blade is 3 inches. Keeping in mind that 1 inc=0.025 m, we have
L=3 in \cdot 0.025  \frac{m}{inc} =0.075 m
The angular speed is 600 revolutions per minute. Keeping in mind that 1 rev=2 \pi rad and 1 min=60 s, the angular speed becomes
\omega = 600  \frac{rev}{min}  \frac{2 \pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=62.8 rad/s

And so, the linear velocity of the edge of the blade is equal to
v=\omega L=(62.8rad/s)(0.075 m)=47 m/s

A man with a mass of 60 kg rides a bike with a mass of 13 kg. What is the force needed to accelerate the bike at 0.90 m/s2?
Scrat [10]
The total mass of the things on the road is 60 + 13, which is 73kg.

mass • acceleration = F

73 x 0.9m/s^2 = 65.7N

F = 65.7 N

The pressure at the bottom of a full barrel of water is Poriginal . Determine what happens to the pressure when the radius or he
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

a)   P' = P_original, b)  P ’= P_original + ρ  g Δh

Explanation:

The expression for nanometric pressure is

          P = ρ g h

where ρ  is the density of the liquid and h is the height

a) we change the radius of the barrel, but keeping the same height

as the pressure does not depend on the radius it remains the same

        P' = P_original

b) We change the barrel height

         h ’≠ h

we substitute in the equation

      P ’= ρ  g h’

      h ’= h + Δh

      P ’= ρ  g (h + Δh)

      P ’= (ρ  g h) + ρ  g Δh

      P ’= P_original + ΔP

In this case, the pressure changes due to the new height,

*if it is higher than the initial one, the pressure increases

*if the height is less than the initial one, the pressure is less

A force of 9.00 newtons acts at an angle of 19.0° to the horizontal. What is its component in the horizontal direction?
g100num [7]
It would be helpful if you draw the figure of the problem. You will see that a right triangle would be constructed by the problem where 19.0 is the angle between the hypotenuse and the base of the triangle. It is said that the force acting is said to be 9.0 N  at the said angle to the horizontal. Using trigonometric relations,

cos 19 = adjacent / hypotenuse = horizontal component / 9
horizontal component = 8.51 N
