A student on her way to school walks eastward in a straight line 20.0 meters towards the bus stop, but realizes she dropped her
larisa [96]

Answer:

Total displacement will be 47 meter

Total distance will be 83 meters

Explanation:

We have given that first the student go eastward towards bus stop 20 meters

But he realizes that she dropped his physics notebook and so h=she turns back along the same way up to 18 meters

So displacement = 20-18 = 2 meters

And he travel 45 meters in east along the bus stop so total displacement = 45+2 = 47 meters

Total distance traveled by the student = 20+18+45 = 83 meters

3. What exerts a greater force on the table of 2 kg book lying flat or a 2 kg book on its
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

A book on its side exerts a greater force.

Explanation:

Pressure = Force / Area

Assuming that 1kg = 10N

2kg = 20N

Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m

                                     = 0.6m²

Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²

                                            = 30Pa (1 s.f.)

Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m

                                        = 0.01m²

Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²

                                               = 2000Pa (1 s.f.)

Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.

A 49.0 kg wheel, essentially a thin hoop with radius 0.730 m, is rotating at 114 rev/min. It must be brought to a stop in 22.0 s
belka [17]

Explanation:

Mass of the wheel, m = 49 kg

Radius of the hoop, r = 0.73 m

Initial angular speed of the wheel, \omega_i=114\ rev/min = 11.93\ rad/s

Final angular speed of the wheel, \omega_f=0

Time, t = 22 s

(a) If I is the moment of inertia of the hoop. It is equal to,

I=mr^2

I=49\times (0.73)^2

I=26.11\ kg-m^2

We know that the work done is equal to change in kinetic energy.

W=\Delta E

W=\dfrac{1}{2}I(\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2)

W=-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 26.11\times (11.93^2)

W = -1858.05 Joules

(b) Let P is the average power. It is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

P=\dfrac{1858.05\ J}{22\ s}

P =84.45 watts

Hence, this is the required solution.
