At a playground a student runs at a speed of 5 m/s and jump onto a circular disk of radius 3/2 m that is free to rotate around a

fixed vertical axle. The student jumps on the disk several times, and the angular speed after the student lands is measured each time. Which of the following angular speeds is not a reasonable value for the measured angular speed?
a. 0.5 rad/s
b. 1 rad/s
c. 2 rad/s
d. 3 rad/s
e. 4 rad/s

Answer:

e. 4 rad/s

Explanation:

The maximum amount of angular velocity that can be reached by the disk can be found using the following formula:

v = r\omega\\\\\omega = \frac{v}{r}

where,

ω = maximum angular velocity = ?

v = linear speed = 5 m/s

r = radius of disc = 1.5 m

Therefore,

\omega = \frac{5\ m/s}{1.5\ m} \\\\\omega = 3.33\ rad/s

Therefore, the angular speed can be lower than this value due to frictional losses, but it can not exceed this value in the given linear speed limit of 5 m/s.

Hence, the correct option is:

<u>e. 4 rad/s</u>

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

Choose true or false for each statement regarding a parallel plate capacitor.. The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor i
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor increases when the plate area is decreased.

When plate area decreases , capacitance C decreases , but charge Q remains constant .

Q = C V where C is capacitance and V is voltage .

when C decreases , V increases for keeping Q constant .

So the statement is true.

The electric field is dependent on the charge density on the plates.

This statement is true .

The voltage of a connected charged capacitor remains the same when the plate area is decreased .

For a connected capacitor , V or voltage is constant which is equal to voltage of charging battery .

So the statement is true .

A horse of mass 242 kg pulls a cart of mass 224 kg. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . What is the largest acceleration
Rufina [12.5K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second Law and the force of friction. According to Newton, the Force is defined as

F = ma

Where,

m= Mass

a = Acceleration

At the same time the frictional force can be defined as,

F_f = \mu N

Where,

\mu = Frictional coefficient

N = Normal force (mass*gravity)

Our values are given as,

m_h = 242 kg\\m_c = 224 kg\\\mu = 0.894\\

By condition of Balance the friction force must be equal to the total net force, that is to say

F_{net} = F_f

m_{total}a = \mu m_hg

(m_h+m_c)a = \mu*m_h*g

Re-arrange to find acceleration,

a= \frac{\mu*m_h*g}{(m_h+m_c)}

a = \frac{0.894*242*9.8}{(242+224)}

a = 4.54 m/s^2

Therefore the acceleration the horse can give is 4.54m/s^2
