mass = 30kg

frictional force = coefficient of friction * (mass * g)

g = 9.8 m/s^2

So:

60N = x * 294 N

x = 60 N / 294 N = 0,2

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.1 m and at height 2.1 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

$212.8 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Time taken by stone to cover horizontal distance

$t=\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}}$ where t is time, h is height of whirling the stone in horizontal circle, g is gravitational constant, Substituting h for 2.1 m and g for 9.81

$t=\sqrt{\frac {2*2.1}{9.81}}$ = 0.654654 seconds

t=0.65 s

Velocity, v= distance/time

v=10/0.65= 15.27525 m/s

v=15.3 m/s

$a=\frac {v^{2}}{r}$ where r is radius of circle, substituting r with 1.1m

$a=\frac {15.3^{2}}{1.1}$

$a=212.8 m/s^{2}$

Therefore, centripetal acceleration is $212.8 m/s^{2}$

A truck tire rotates at an initial angular speed of 21.5 rad/s. The driver steadily accelerates, and after 3.50 s the tire's ang

erma4kov [3.2K]

Given:

initial angular speed, $\omega _{i}$ = 21.5 rad/s

final angular speed, $\omega _{f}$ = 28.0 rad/s

time, t = 3.50 s

Solution:

Angular acceleration can be defined as the time rate of change of angular velocity and is given by:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega _{i}}{t}$

Now, putting the given values in the above formula:

$\alpha = \frac{28.0 - 21.5}{3.50}$

$\alpha = 1.86 m/s^{2}$

Therefore, angular acceleration is:

$\alpha = 1.86 m/s^{2}$
