Answer:

(i) The angular speed of the small metal object is 25.133 rad/s

(ii) The linear speed of the small metal object is 7.54 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circular path, r = 30 cm = 0.3 m

number of revolutions, n = 20

time of motion, t = 5 s

(i) The angular speed of the small metal object is calculated as;

$\omega = \frac{20 \ rev}{5 \ s} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = \frac{40\pi \ rad}{5 \ s} = 8\pi \ rad/s = 25.133 \ rad/s$

(ii) The linear speed of the small metal object is calculated as;

$v = \omega r\\\\v = 25.133 \ rad/s \ \times \ 0.3 \ m\\\\v = 7.54 \ m/s$

A particle of mass 4.00 kg is attached to a spring with a force constant of 100 N/m. It is oscillating on a frictionless, horizo

zloy xaker [14]

Solution :

Given :

Mass attached to the spring = 4 kg

Mass dropped = 6 kg

Force constant = 100 N/m

Initial amplitude = 2 m

Therefore,

a). $v_{initial} = A w$

$= 2 \times \sqrt{\frac{100}{4}}$

= 10 m/s

Final velocity, v at equilibrium position, v = 5 m/s

Now, $\frac{1}{2}(4+4)5^2 = \frac{1}{2} kA'$

A' = amplitude = 1.4142 m

b). $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

m' = 2m

Hence, $T'=\sqrt2 T$

c). $\frac{\frac{1}{2}(4+4)5^2 + \frac{1}{2}\times 4 \times 10^2}{\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 10^2}$

$=\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, factor $=\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, the energy will change half times as the result of the collision.

A circuit is made of a battery, a light bulb, and a 2 resistor. The battery has a voltage of 3 volts. When connected, the ammete

Monica [59]

Answer:

3ohms

Explanation:

From Ohm's Law

V = IR

V is that voltage = 3volts

I = current = 1amp

R = resistance in ohms

Putting those values into the above formula.

3volts = 1amp×R

Making R the subject

R = 3/1

R = 3ohms

The resistance of the light bulb is 3ohms.

Two spectators at a soccer game see, and a moment later hear, the ball being kicked on the playing field. The time delay for the

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

a)188.65m

b)154.35m

c)243.7m

Explanation:

Given data:

$t_A=0.55s$

$t_B=0.45s$

(a) The distance from the kicker to each of the 2 spectators is given by:

$d_A=v \times t_A$

where,

v= speed of sound

$t_A$ =time taken for the sound waves to reach the ears

$d_A=343\times 0.55=188.65$ m

(b) $d_B=v \times t_B$

where,

v= speed of sound

$t_B$ =time taken for the sound waves to reach the ears

$d_B=343\times 0.45=154.35m$

(c)As the angle b/w slight lines from the two spectators to the player is right angle,

hypotenuse=the distance b/w 2 spectators

and, the slight lines are the other 2 lines

$D^2=d_A^2+d_B^2\\D=\sqrt{188.65^2+154.35^2} \\D= 243.7m$
