"Calculate the speed of this sound wave by recording how much time it takes to travel 5 meters. Use the (old school) velocity eq

uation: v = d/t Show units in your work. Answer: 292.39 m/s= 5 meters/.0171 secs." and here's the question I need help with: "Based on the speed you measured above, how long would it take for you to hear thunder if you observed lightning and it was seen to be 1620 meters away?"

1) sound velocity reported by you : 292.39 m /s

2) time to travel 1620m at that velocity: t = d / v = 1620 m / 292.39 m/s = 5.54 s, since the moment the sound wave started.

3) You might wanted to tell the time since you watched the lightning.

Then you can calculate the time since the lighting was generated,1620 m away from you, until you saw it, using the speed of light:

 speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s => t = 1620 m / (3*10^8m/s) =0.0000054 s

Then, this time is completely neglectible, and yet the answer is 5.54 s, as calculated in the step 2.

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m

A uniform disk with a mass of 5.0 kg and diameter 30 cm rotates on a frictionless fixed axis through its center and perpendicula
Marina86 [1]

Answer:\alpha =10.66 rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given

mass of disk m=5 kg

diameter of disc d=30 cm

Force applied F=4 N

Now this force will Produce  a  torque of magnitude

T=F\cdot r

T=4\dot 0.15

T=0.6 N-m

And Torque is given Product of moment of inertia and angular acceleration (\alpha )

T=I\cdot \alpha

Moment of inertia for Disc I= \frac{Mr^2}{2}

I=0.05625 kg-m^2

0.6=0.05625\cdot \alpha

\alpha =10.66 rad/s^2
