Answer:

The velocity of the blades is 88.185 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the blade, r = 80 m

angular speed, ω = 1 rev per 5.7 seconds

The velocity of the blades is calculated by applying the following circular motion equation that relates linear velocity (V) and angular speed (ω);

V = \omega r\\\\V = (\frac{1 \ rev}{5.7 \ s} \times \frac{2  \pi \ rad}{ 1 \ rev} )(80 \ m)\\\\V = 88.185 \ m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the blades is 88.185 m/s.

Over [174]

Answer:

v=32.9m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation a=v^2/r

This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).

We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:

v=\sqrt{ar} = \sqrt{12.5gr}=\sqrt{(12.5)(9.8m/s)(8.84m)}=32.9m/s

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

3.0 cm

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the yo-yo.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and tension force T pulling up 10° from the vertical.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T cos 10° − mg = 0

T cos 10° = mg

T = mg / cos 10°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T sin 10° = ma

mg tan 10° = ma

g tan 10° = a

a = 1.73 m/s²

Draw a free body diagram of the sphere.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and air resistance D pushing up.  At terminal velocity, the acceleration is 0.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

D − mg = 0

D = mg

½ ρₐ v² C A = ρᵢ V g

½ ρₐ v² C (πr²) = ρᵢ (4/3 πr³) g

3 ρₐ v² C = 8 ρᵢ r g

r = 3 ρₐ v² C / (8 ρᵢ g)

r = 3 (1.3 kg/m³) (100 m/s)² (0.47) / (8 (7874 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²))

r = 0.030 m

r = 3.0 cm

Someone help me haha;(
Nikitich [7]

Answer: vf = 51 m/s

d = 112 m

Explanation: Solution attached:

To find vf we use acceleration equation:

a = vf - vi / t

Derive to find vf

vf = at + vi

Substitute the values

vf = 3.5 m/s² ( 8.0 s) + 23 m/s

= 51 m/s

To solve for distance we use

d = (∆v)² / 2a

= (51 m/s - 23 m/s )² / 2 ( 3.5 m/s²)

= (28 m/s)² / 7 m/s²

= 784 m/s / 7 m/s²

= 112 m

A driver has a reaction time of 0.50 s , and the maximum deceleration of her car is 6.0 m/s^2 . She is driving at 20 m/s when su
QveST [7]

Answer:

The car stops after 32.58 m.

Explanation:

t = Time taken for the car to stop

u = Initial velocity = 20 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -6 m/s²

Time taken by the car to stop

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-20}{-6}\\\Rightarrow t=3.33\ s

Total Time taken by the car to stop is 0.5+3.33 = 3.83 s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=20\times 3.83+\frac{1}{2}\times -6\times 3.83^2\\\Rightarrow s=32.58\ m

The car stops after 32.58 m.

Distance between car and obstacle is 50-32.58 = 17.42 m
