Answer:

the free-fall acceleration on the moon is 1.68 m/s^2

Explanation:

recall the formula for the gravitational potential energy (under acceleration of gravity "g"):

PE = m * g * h

replacing with our values for the problem:

46 J = 91 * g * 0.3

solve for the "g" on the Moon:

g = 46 / (91 * 0.3)

g = 1.68  m/s^2

Which best describes how energy changes form in a car's engine?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Multiple transformations occur because the chemical energy of the fuel is changed to several forms of energy

Explanation:

In a car engine, multiple energy transformation takes place. The chemical energy storef in fuel is transformed into mechanical energy which helps move the wheels of the vehicle.

The mechanical energy can also be transformed into electrical energy through a sort of dynamo system in vehicles. Stereo players use the electrical energy to produce sound.

We see that multiple energy conversions are common in a motor car.

A person is riding a bicycle, and its wheels have an angular velocity of 10.7 rad/s. Then, the brakes are applied and the bike i
Scilla [17]

Answer:

(a) t = 22.9 s

(b) α= - 0.467 rad/s²

Explanation:

The uniformly accelerated circular movement, is a circular path movement in which the angular acceleration is constant.

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf ²=  ω₀² + 2*α*θ  Formula (1)

ωf= ω₀ + α*t Formula (2)

Where:

θ : angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

α : angular acceleration (rad/s²)

t : time interval (s)

ω₀ : initial angular speed ( rad/s)

ωf : final angular speed ( rad/s)

Data

θ =  19.5 revolutions  : angular displacement of each wheel or angle that the  wheel has rotated in a given time interval

ω₀= 10.7 rad/s :  initial angular speed of the Wheel ( rad/s)

ωf = 0 : final angular speed  of the Whee( rad/s)

Calculating of the angular acceleration (α )

We replace data in the fómula (1),considering that 1 revolution is equal to 2π radians :

ωf ²=  ω₀² + 2*α*θ

(0 )²=  (10.7)² + 2*α*(19.5*2*π )

0= 114.49 + (245.04)*α

-114.49 =  (245.04)*α

α= (-114.49) /(245.04)

α= -114.49 /(245.04)

α= -0.467 rad/s²

Time does it take for the bike to come to rest

We replace data in the formula (2)

ωf = ω₀ + α*t

0 =  10.7 + -0.467*t

-10.7  = - 0.467*t    we multiply by (-1) both sides of the equation :

10.7  = 0.467*t  

t = 10.7 / 0.467

t = 22.9 s
