Answer:
The period of rotation is
T=8.025s
Explanation:
The person is undergoing simple harmonic motion on the wheel
Given data
mass of the person =75kg
Radius of wheel r=16m
Velocity =8.25m/s
The oscillating period of simple harmonic motion is given as
T=(2*pi)/2=2*pi √r/g
Assuming that g=9.81m/s
Substituting our data into the expression we have
T=2*3.142 √ 16/9.81
T=6.284*1.277
T=8.025s
B) The object's velocity doubled.
Explanation:
The graph is missing: find it in attachment.
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
We notice that:
- The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass
- The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity
In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.
First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.
Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore
B) The object's velocity doubled.
