A student places an object with a mass of m on a disk at a position r from the center of the disk. The student starts rotating t

he disk. When the disk reaches a speed of 0.8 m/s, the object starts to slide off the disk. What is the coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk?

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk is 0.087.

Explanation:

According to the statement, the object on the disk experiments a centrifugal force due to static friction. From 2nd Newton's Law, we can represent the object by the following formula:

\Sigma F_{r} = \mu_{s}\cdot N = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R} (1)

\Sigma F_{y} = N - m\cdot g = 0 (2)

Where:

N - Normal force from the ground on the object, measured in newtons.

m - Mass of the object, measured in newtons.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

v - Linear speed of rotation of the disk, measured in meters per second.

R - Distance of the object from the center of the disk, measured in meters.

By applying (2) on (1), we obtain the following formula:

\mu_{s}\cdot m\cdot g = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

\mu_{s} = \frac{v^{2}}{g\cdot R}

If we know that v = 0.8\,\frac{m}{s}, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and R = 0.75\,m, then the coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk is:

\mu_{s} = \frac{\left(0.8\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{\left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.75\,m)}

\mu_{s} = 0.087

The coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk is 0.087.

Answer:

c. 48 cm/s/s

Explanation:

Anna Litical and Noah Formula are experimenting with the effect of mass and net force upon the acceleration of a lab cart. They determine that a net force of F causes a cart with a mass of M to accelerate at 48 cm/s/s. What is the acceleration value of a cart with a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F?

from newtons second law of motion ,

which states that change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied.

we can say that

f=m(v-u)/t

a=acceleration

t=time

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

since a=(v-u)/t

f=m*a

force applied is F

m =mass of the object involved

a is the acceleration of the object involved

f=m*48.........................1

in the second case ;a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F

f=ma

a=2F/2M

substituting equation 1

a=2(M*48)/2M

a=. 48 cm/s/s

Which is an example of an unstructured activity that promotes resistance training?
aleksandrvk [35]
One possible unstructured activity that promotes resistance training would be climbing playground equimpent - A. 

This is by nature a unstructured ctivity. Furthermore, it promotes resistance training because you're forced to move and pull and push yourself.

Why are noise considerations important in optical fiber communications? 3. Describe the principle of "population inversion".
pochemuha

Answer and Explanation:

the electronic devices always have some noises present in the signal

there are some important considerations in optical fiber communications these are.

  • the noise which is contributed by transmitter are electronic random noise, low frequency noise
  • noise which is contributed by laser are relative intensity noise, mode partition noise, conversion of phase noise to amplitude noise.
  • noise contributed by photo detector are quantum shot noise, shot noise from dark current, avalanche multiplication noise.

PRINCIPLE OF POPULATION INVERSION :

The principle of population inversion is defined as for production of high percentage of simulated emission for a laser beam the number of atoms in higher state should be greater than lower energy state

Argon gas enters steadily an adiabatic turbine at 900 kPa and 450C with a velocity of 80 m/s and leaves at 150 kPa with a veloc
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Temperature at the exit = 267.3 C

Explanation:

For the steady energy flow through a control volume, the power output is given as

W_{out}= -m_{f}(h_{2}-h_{1} + \frac{v_{2}^{2}}{2} - \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2})

Inlet area of the turbine = 60cm^{2}= 0.006m^{2}

To find the mass flow rate, we can apply the ideal gas laws to estimate the specific volume, from there we can get the mass flow rate.

Assuming Argon behaves as an Ideal gas, we have the specific volume v_{1}

as

v_{1}=\frac{RT_{1}}{P_{1}}=\frac{0.2081\times723}{900}=0.1672m^{3}/kg

m_{f}=\frac{1}{v_{1}}\times A_{1}V_{1} = \frac{1}{0.1672}\times(0.006)(80)=2.871kg/sec

for Ideal gasses, the enthalpy change can be calculated using the formula

h_{2}-h_{1}=C_{p}(T_{2}-T_{1})

hence we have

W_{out}= -m_{f}((C_{p}(T_{2}-T_{1}) + \frac{v_{2}^{2}}{2} - \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2})

250= -2.871((0.5203(T_{2}-450) + \frac{150^{2}}{2\times 1000} - \frac{80^{2}}{2\times 1000})

<em>Note: to convert the Kinetic energy term to kilojoules, it was multiplied by 1000</em>

evaluating the above equation, we have T_{2}=267.3C

Hence, the temperature at the exit = 267.3 C
