A wheel rotates about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 4.0 rad/s2. The diameter of the wheel is 40 cm. What

is the linear speed of a point on the rim of this wheel at an instant when that point has a total linear acceleration with a magnitude of 1.2 m/s2

Answer:

v = 0.42m/s

Explanation:

In order o calculate the linear speed of the point at the border of the wheel, you first take into account that the total acceleration of such a point is given by:

a_{total}^2=a_r^2+a_t^2       (1)

atotal: total acceleration = 1.2m/s^2

ar: radial acceleration of the wheel

at: tangential acceleration

The tangential acceleration is also given by:

a_t=r\alpha     (2)

r: radius of the wheel = (40cm/2 )= 20cm = 0.2m

α: angular acceleration = 4.0rad/s^2

You replace the expression (2) into the expression (1) and solve for the radial acceleration:

a_{total}^2=a_r^2+(r\alpha)^2\\\\a_r=\sqrt{(a_{total})^2-(r\alpha)^2}\\\\a_r=\sqrt{(1.2m/s^2)^2-((0.2m)(4.0rad/s^2))^2}=0.894\frac{m}{s^2}

Next, you use the following formula for the radial acceleration and solve for the linear speed:

a_r=\frac{v^2}{r}\\\\v=\sqrt{ra_r}=\sqrt{(0.2m)(0.894m/s^2)}=0.42\frac{m}{s}

The linear speed of the point at the border of the wheel is 0.42m/s

EARTH SCIENCE PLEASE ANSWER
Rzqust [24]

The Earth Science answers are shown below.

Explanation:

1. The movement of the sun will change the angle it has on the sky in 30 minutes, it is always moving from the east to the west, so in 30 minutes it would move more west, no matter at what time you make the experiment. From Earth, the Sun looks like it moves across the sky in the daytime and appears to disappear at night. This is because the Earth is spinning towards the east. The Earth spins about its axis, an imaginary line that runs through the middle of the Earth between the North and South poles

2. No, both marks are the same distance from the ground.  the amount of stick above the mark will not affect the distance that the shadow of the mark moves at all. The Sun's clockwise motion is an apparent motion caused by the rotation of the Earth. The counterclockwise rotation of the Earth in the Sun's light causes the shadow of the gnomon to move clockwise. As the Sun appears to move higher above the horizon before solar noon, the shadow grows shorter and shorter.

3. In the summer the shadows are shorter, and in the winter the shadows are longer. In the morning your shadow will point west and in the afternoon it will point east. If your shadow is long, it is near sunrise or sunset. Your shadow is shortest around noon.

4. If the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, then the Earth should rotate in the opposite direction from west to east (anti-clockwise). Earth's spin (or rotation) on its axis. Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.

Which produces more gravitational force on your textbook: you or the earth?
Yuri [45]
The earth obviously because it is on Earth like we are and it has the same gravital properties. It falls when you drop it and rises when you pick it up

Which objects will likely have the smallest gravitational force between them?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A. Two tennis balls that are near each other  

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational force (F) between two objects is

F = \dfrac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{d^{2} }

where m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the two objects, d is the distance between their centres, and G is the gravitational constant.

Thus, two objects that are far from each other will have a smaller gravitational force. We can eliminate Options C and D.

If the objects are at the same distance, those with the smaller mass will have a smaller force.

The mass of a tennis ball is 57 g.

The mass of a soccer ball is 430 g.

Two tennis balls that are near each other will have a smaller gravitational attraction.
