Answer:

(A) the angular acceleration of the blades is 13.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

moment of inertia of a blade, I = 0.2 kgm²

net torque exerted on fan blades, ∑τ =  8Nm

Torque is given as product of moment of inertia and angular acceleration;

τ = Iα

where;

α is the angular acceleration

Since there are three blades of the ceiling fan, the net torque is given as;

∑τ = (3I)α

∑τ = 3Iα

α = ∑τ / 3I

α = (8) / (3 x 0.2)

α = 13.33 m/s

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the blades is 13.33 m/s.

An 56 kg sled is being pulled across the snow, at constant speed,by a horizontal force of 15 N, find the coefficient of kinetic
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The coefficient of  kinetic friction = 0.026  

Explanation:

An 56 kg sled is being pulled across the snow, at constant speed,by a horizontal force of 15 N.

Here we have to note that the weight is pulled at a constant speed . This means that the net force acting on the weight is zero.

The external force acting on the body is in the forward direction and the friction acts in the backward direction.

Friction increases as the mass of the body increases.

Friction = u_{k}\times m \times g

We now equate this to the external force of 15 N.

15 = u_{k} \times 56 \times 10

u_{k} = \frac{15}{560}

u_{k} = 0.026

The coefficient of  kinetic friction = 0.026

A runner traveling with an initial velocity of 1.1 m/s accelerates at a constant rate of 0.8 m/s2fora time of 2.0 s.(a).What is
pychu [463]

Answer:

The final velocity of the runner at the end of the given time is 2.7 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the runner, u = 1.1 m/s

constant acceleration, a = 0.8 m/s²

time of motion, t = 2.0 s

The velocity of the runner at the end of the given time is calculate as;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the runner at the end of the given time;

v = 1.1 + (0.8)(2)

v = 2.7 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the runner at the end of the given time is 2.7 m/s.

If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 47.0 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55.0 m/s in the opposite directi
Naddik [55]

Answer:

14.79 kgm/s

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Let us assume the mass of baseball =  m = 0.145 kg

The Initial velocity of pitched ball = v_i = 47 m/s

Final velocity of batted ball in the opposite direction = v_f= -55m/s

Based on the above information, the change in momentum is

\Delta P = m(v_f -v_i)

=  0.145 kg(-55m/s - 47m/s)    

= 14.79 kgm/s

Hence, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball is 14.79 kg m/s

Viktor [21]

The light reactions could be viewed as analogous to a hydroelectric dam. In that case, the wall of the dam that holds back the water would be analogous to the thylakoid membrane.

Thylakoid membrane is present in cyanobacteria and chloroplasts of plants. It plays a crucial role in photosynthesis and photosystem II reactions.

In general, these are the regions where light-dependent reactions take place. The thylakoid membrane is a lipid-bound membrane that maintains potential difference and also controls the flow of liquids across the membrane during light reactions.

In the provided case, we can see that the wall of the dam holds back the water, similarly, in light-dependent reactions, thylakoid membranes control the liquid flow and also regulate the potential gradient across the membrane and also allow the selective proteins to pass through.
