Answer:

288N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Cheetah = 12kg

Acceleration = 24m/s²

Unknown:

Force needed by the cheetah to run = ?

Solution:

The force needed by the Cheetah to run is the net force.

According to Newton's law;

Force = mass x acceleration

Insert the given parameters and solve;

Force = 12 x 24 = 288N

A 0.5 m diameter wagon wheel consists of a thin rim having a mass of 7 kg and six spokes, each with a mass of 1.2 kg. 1.2 kg 7 k

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the rim of wheel, m₁ = 7 kg

Mass of one spoke, m₂ = 1.2 kg

Diameter of the wagon, d = 0.5 m

Radius of the wagon, r = 0.25 m

Let I is the the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis.

We know that the moment of inertia of the ring is given by :

$I_1=m_1r^2$

$I_1=7\times (0.25)^2=0.437\ kgm^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod about one end is given by :

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2l^2}{3}$

l = r

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{3}$

$I_2=\dfrac{1.2\times (0.25)^2}{3}=0.025\ kgm^2$

For 6 spokes, $I_2=0.025\times 6=0.15\ kgm^2$

So, the net moment of inertia of the wagon is :

$I=I_1+I_2$

$I=0.437+0.15=0.587\ kgm^2$

So, the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis is $0.587\ kgm^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

The velocity of a 48.0 g shell leaving a 2.95 kg rifle is 391. m/s. What is the recoil velocity of the rifle?

Monica [59]

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{ -6.36m/s}$

Use the equation:

$v_{2} = -\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}} v_{1}$

Where m2 and v2 deal with the larger object, and m1 and v1 with the smaller object. Plug in the given values:

v2 = ?

m1 = 0.048 kg (converted)

m2 = 2.95

v1 = 391

$v_{2} = -\frac{0.048}{2.95} *391$

$v_{2} = -6.36m/s$

If two charged objects in a laboratory are brought to a distance of 0.22 meters away from each other. What is

zysi [14]

Answer:

$q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

Explanation:

The charge on one object, $q_1=9.9\times 10^{-5}\ C$

The distance between the charges, r = 0.22 m

The force between the charges, F = 4,550 N

Let q₂ is the charge on the other sphere. The electrostatic force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{4550\times (0.22) ^2}{9\times 10^9\times 9.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

So, the charge on the other sphere is $2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$ .
