Answer:

ac = 72 m/s²

Fc = 504 N

Explanation:

We can find the centripetal acceleration of the hammer by using the following formula:

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}

where,

ac = centripetal acceleration = ?

v = constant speed = 12 m/s

r = radius = 2 m

Therefore,

a_c = \frac{(12\ m/s)^2}{2\ m}

<u>ac = 72 m/s²</u>

<u></u>

Now, the centripetal force applied by the athlete on the hammer will be:

F_c = ma_c\\F_c = (7\ kg)(72\ m/s^2)

<u>Fc = 504 N</u>

A 2.7-kg ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s from the edge of a 45.0 m high cliff. At the instant the ball i
scoray [572]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m

Explanation:

Given

The initial height of the cliff

yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff

y = yo + ut -1/2gt²

u = 20.0m/s initial speed

g = 9.80m/s²

0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²

0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²

Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,

t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s

So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.

The distance traveled by the woman is

s = vt

Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s

Therefore

s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m

Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

Suppose of methane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly and a temperature of . Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas
Licemer1 [7]

There are supposed to be numbers in these places:

" _____ of methane"

" ... pressure of exactly _____ "

" ... temperature of _____ "

I've seen a lot of questions with missing numbers before, but I think this is the first time I ever saw a question where even the number of significant digits to round the answer to is missing.

"Round your answer to _____ significant digits."

A 5-m steel beam is lowered by means of two cables unwinding at the same speed from overhead cranes. As the beam approaches the
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) The angular acceleration of the beam is 0.5 rad/s²CW (direction clockwise due the tangential acceleration is positive)

b) The acceleration of point A is 3.25 m/s²

The acceleration of point E is 0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The relative acceleration of B with respect to D is equal:

a_{B} =a_{D} +(a_{B/D} )_{n} +(a_{B/D} )_{t}

Where

aB = absolute acceleration of point B = 2.5 j (m/s²)

aD = absolute acceleration of point D = 1.5 j (m/s²)

(aB/D)n = relative acceleration of point B respect to D (normal direction BD) = 0, no angular velocity of the beam

(aB/D)t = relative acceleration of point B respect to D (tangential direction BD)

a_{B} =a_{D}  +(a_{B/D} )_{t}

2.5j=1.5j  +(a_{B/D} )_{t}\\(a_{B/D} )_{t}=j=1m/s^{2}

We have that

(aB/D)t = BDα

Where α = acceleration of the beam

BDα = 1 m/s²

Where

BD = 2

2\alpha =1\\\alpha =0.5rad/s^{2}CW

b) The acceleration of point A is:

a_{A} =a_{D}  +(a_{A/D} )_{t}

(aA/D)t = ADαj

a_{A} =a_{D}  +AD\alpha j\\a_{A}=1.5j+(3.5*0.5)j\\a_{A}=3.25jm/s^{2}

The acceleration of point E is:

(aE/D)t = -EDαj

a_{E} =a_{D}  -ED\alpha j\\a_{E}=1.5j-(1.5*0.5)j\\a_{E}=0.75jm/s^{2}
