To answer the two questions, we need to know two important equations involving centripetal movement:

v = ωr (ω represents angular velocity in radians)

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

Let's apply the first equation to question a:

v = ωr

v = ((1800*2π) / 60) * 0.26

Wait. 2π? 0.26? 60? Let's break down why these numbers are written differently. In order to use the equation v = ωr, it is important that the units of ω is in radians. Since one revolution is equivalent to 2π radians, we can easily do the conversion from revolutions to radians by multiplying it by 2π. As for 0.26, note that the question asks for the units to be m/s. Since we need meters, we simply convert 26 cm, our radius, into meters. The revolutions is also given in revs/min, and we need to convert it into revs/sec so that we can get our final units correct. As a result, we divide the rate by 60 to convert minutes into seconds.

Back to the equation:

v = ((1800*2π)/60) * 0.26

v = (1800*2(3.14)/60) * 0.26

v = (11304/60) * 0.26

v = 188.4 * 0.26

v = 48.984

v = 49 (m/s)

Now that we know the linear velocity, we can find the centripetal acceleration:

a = $\frac{v^{2}}{r}$

a = $\frac{49^{2}}{0.26}$

a = 9234.6 (m/ $s^{2}$ )

Wow! That's fast!

We now have our answers for a and b:

a. 49 (m/s)

b. 9.2 * $10^{3}$ (m/ $s^{2}$ )

If you have any questions on how I got to these answers, just ask!

On the way to school, the bus speeds up from 20 m/s to 36 m/s in 4 seconds. What distance

Tresset [83]

Answer B. 112 m

Step-by-Step Explanation

initial velocity u = 20 m /s
final velocity v = 36 m /s
time taken t = 4 s
acceleration = (v - U) / t
= (36 - 20) / 4
a=4m/s2
from the formula
7-u2=2as , sis distance covered
putting the values
362-202=2×4×s
1296 - 400 = 8 x S
S= 112 m

How do the principles of convection, conduction, and radiation explain how the water in the saucepan gets hot?

RSB [31]

Heat comes from stove flame to the sauce pan by radiation through infrared energy, heat conducts the metal of the sauce pan; Convection brings cool water to the hot surface at the bottom of the hot sauce pan until all or most of the water is hot enough to boil.
