Answer:

K=58.8N/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass M=0.442

Drop distance d=0.150

Generally the equation for Spring Constant is mathematically given by

 K=\frac{2mg}{x}

 K=\frac{2*0.442*9.8}{1.150}

 K=58.8N/m

A) 140 degrees

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the Ferris wheel. We know that its period is

T = 32 s

So the angular velocity is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{32 s}=0.20 rad/s

Assuming the wheel is moving at constant angular velocity, we can now calculate the angular displacement with respect to the initial position:

\theta= \omega t

and substituting t = 75 seconds, we find

\theta= (0.20 rad/s)(75 s)=15 rad

In degrees, it is

15 rad: x = 2\pi rad : 360^{\circ}\\
x=\frac{(15 rad)(360^{\circ})}{2\pi}=860^{\circ} = 140^{\circ}

So, the new position is 140 degrees from the initial position at the top.

B) 2.7 m/s

The tangential speed, v, of a point at the egde of the wheel is given by

v=\omega r

where we have

\omega=0.20 rad/s

r = d/2 = (27 m)/2=13.5 m is the radius of the wheel

Substituting into the equation, we find

v=(0.20 rad/s)(13.5 m)=2.7 m/s

A train travels at a speed of 30 m/s. The train starts at an initial position of 1000 meters and travels for 30 seconds. What is
torisob [31]

Answer:

1900 metres

Explanation:

Given that a train travels at a speed of 30 m/s. The train starts at an initial position of 1000 meters and travels for 30 seconds.

The parameters to be considered are:

Speed = 30 m/s

Time = 30 seconds

Speed = distance/time

Substitute the parameters into the formula

30 = distance / 30

Cross multiply

Distance = 30 × 30

Distance = 900 m

Since the train started from a position of 1000 m , the final position will be:

Final position = 1000 + 900

Final position = 1900 metres

In this equation

1 Cl2 + 3 F2---> 2 ClxFy

those coefficients are in MOLE (or molecule) ratios. BUT for gases at the same temp and pressure, they are also VOLUME ratios.. why? PV = nRT, V = nRT/P. if RT/P = constant.. V1/n1 = V2/n2 --> n1/n2 = V1/V2..make sense? mole ratios
= volume ratios

so.. what are x and y?
1 Cl2 + 3 F2---> 2 ClxFy

2 Cl's on the left.. x must = 1
6 F2's on the left. y must be 3

1 Cl2 + 3 F2---> 2 ClF3 <span>
