Answer:

c. A number and a unit

Explanation:

A scalar is a real number. We often use the term scalar in the context of vectors or matrices, to stress that a variable such as a is just a real number and not a vector or matrix.

What happens to the rock structure during each of type of change?

EastWind [94]

Previous rocks melt and collide and to form igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks disintegrate due to weather disruptions and get carried away by water, where they form sedimentary rock strata by lithification.
Igneous and sedimentary change by heat and pressure to form metamorphic rocks.
Metamorphic rocks melt and become igneous rocks.

Your grandmother enjoys creating pottery as a hobby. She uses a potter's wheel, which is a stone disk of radius R-0.520 m and ma

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

0.54454

104.00902 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of wheel = 100 kg

r = Radius = 0.52 m

t = Time taken = 6 seconds

$\omega_f$ = Final angular velocity

$\omega_i$ = Initial angular velocity

$\alpha$ = Angular acceleration

Mass of inertia is given by

$I=\dfrac{mr^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{100\times 0.52^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow I=13.52\ kgm^2$

Angular acceleration is given by

$\alpha=\dfrac{\tau}{I}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{\mu fr}{I}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{\mu 50\times 0.52}{13.52}$

Equation of rotational motion

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\omega_i+\dfrac{\mu (-50)\times 0.52}{13.52}t\\\Rightarrow 0=60\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}+\dfrac{\mu (-50)\times 0.52}{13.52}\times 6\\\Rightarrow 0=6.28318-11.53846\mu\\\Rightarrow \mu=\dfrac{6.28318}{11.53846}\\\Rightarrow \mu=0.54454$

The coefficient of friction is 0.54454

At r = 0.25 m

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\dfrac{0.54454 (-50)\times 0.52}{13.52}6\\\Rightarrow 0=60\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}+\dfrac{0.54454 f\times 0.25}{13.52}6\\\Rightarrow 2\pi=0.06041f\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{2\pi}{0.06041}\\\Rightarrow f=104.00902\ N$

The force needed to stop the wheel is 104.00902 N
