You are out running and the first mile takes you 10 minutes. The second mile takes you 20 minutes. This is an example of
cupoosta [38]

If Equal distance is traveled in equal interval of time then it is known as uniform motion in which velocity of object will remain same.

Then if distance covered will be same and the time taken to cover same distance is decreasing then it shows that speed is increasing with time due to which it took less time to cover same distance. This is also known as positive acceleration.

Now if the distance covered will be same and time taken to cover same distance is increasing then it shows that speed is decreasing with time due to which it took more time to cover the same distance. This is also known as negative acceleration.

Now in the above case it is given that the first mile takes you 10 minutes. The second mile takes you 20 minutes. So the time taken is increasing while we cover same distance so this is an example of <u>Negative Acceleration</u>

A particle is projected with velocity v0 directly up a slope which makes an angle α with the horizontal. Assume frictionless mot
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

a)T total = 2*Voy/(g*sin( α ))

b)α = 0º ,  T total≅∞ (the particle, goes away horizontally indefinitely)

α = 90º,  T total=2*Voy/g

Explanation:

  • Velocity in the Y axis:

Voy=Vo*sinα

  • Time to reach the maximal height :

Kinematics equation: Vfy=Voy-at

a=g*sinα ;  g is gravity

if Vfy=0 ⇒ t=T ; time to reach the maximal height

so:

0=Voy-g*sin( α )*T

T=Voy/(g*sin( α ))

  • Time required to return to the starting point:

After the object reaches its maximum height, the object descends to the starting point, the time it descends is the same as the time it rises.

So T total= 2T = 2*Voy/(g*sin( α ))

  • α = 0º , sinα=0

The particle goes totally horizontal, goes away indefinitely

T total= 2*Voy/(g*sin( α )) ≅∞

  • α = 90º, sinα=1

T total=2*Voy/g

An ice skater has a moment of inertia of 5.0 kgm2 when her arms are outstretched. at this time she is spinning at 3.0 revolution
givi [52]
With arms outstretched,
Moment of inertia is I = 5.0 kg-m².
Rotational speed is ω = (3 rev/s)*(2π rad/rev) = 6π rad/s
The torque required is
T = Iω = (5.0 kg-m²)*(6π rad/s) = 30π 

Assume that the same torque drives the rotational motion at a moment of inertia of 2.0 kg-m².
If u = new rotational speed (rad/s), then
T = 2u = 30π
u = 15π rad/s
   = (15π rad/s)*(1 rev/2π rad)
   = 7.5 rev/s

Answer: 7.5  revolutions per second.

Questions:<br>(a) Why should the amplitude of oscillation be small on a pendulum experiment​
Snowcat [4.5K]
The formula for the pendulum experiment is based on the assumption that the amplitude is small so that the angle is approximately equal to the Sine of the angle.
