A disk-shaped space station 125 m in diameter spins at a constant angular velocity. If the acceleration of a point on the rim of

the disk is to be equal to "g", how long does it take for the station to make one revolution?

Answer:

  t = 22.44 s

Explanation:

The acceleration of the station is centripetal which has the formula

         a = v² / r

linear and angular velocity are related

         v = w² r

as they indicate that the acceleration is equal to the acceleration of gravity

         g = w² r

         w = \sqrt{  \frac{g}{r} }

         

let's calculate

         w = \sqrt{ \frac{9.8}{ 125} }

         w = 0.28 rad / s

to calculate the time use us

          w = θ / t

in a complete revolution θ = 2pi

          t = θ / w

let's calculate

          t = 2π / 0, 28

          t = 22.44 s

An electric toaster is rated 1200 watts at 120 volts. what is the total electrical energy used to operate the toaster for 30 sec
Tresset [83]

Answer : Total electrical energy is 36000 J.

Explanation :

It is given that,

Power of electric toaster, P = 1200 Watts

Voltage, V = 120 Volts

Time, t = 30 s

Electric energy is defined as the product of the power and the time taken.

E=Pt

E=1200\ W\times 30\ s

E=36000\ J

Total electrical energy used to operate the toaster for 30 seconds is 36000 J.

A body A of mass 1.5kg, travelling along the positive x-axis with speed 4.5m/s, collides with another body B of mass 3.2kg which
Veronika [31]
We consider the momentum in the x-direction and apply the principle of conservation of momentum to form the equation:
m(A)u(A) = m(A)v(A) + m(B)v(B), since u(B) = 0 as B is at rest

We calculate v(A) using:
Vx = Vcos∅
Vx = 2.1cos(30)
Vx = 1.82 m/s

1.5 x 4.5 = 1.5 x 1.82 + 3.2v(B)
v(B) = 1.26 m/s

The deflection angle of B will be 30° above the positive x-axis, so:
v(B) = Vcos∅
V = 1.26 / cos(30)
V = 1.45 m/s

The velocity of B is 1.45 m/s

The drift velocity should be in the same direction as the applied force. <br> a. true <br> b. false
Marina CMI [18]

It is a false statement i.e. drift velocity is not same in the direction as the applied force.

Drift velocity of a  current-carrying conductor can be explained as, the charges i.e. electrons do not  flow in the same direction of current. In other word, in most cases the movement of the electrons is almost random, with a small net velocity. So that , the drift velocity, in the direction opposite to the electric field.

Drift velocity v_{d} is inversely proportional to the number of electron per unit volume of the conductor e. Therefore, the formulation can be given as ,

v_{d} = σ E/ne

The above equation shows the drift velocity in a current carrying conductor  

where, v_{d} is drift velocity , σ is the conductivity, E is electric force and n is number of electrons per unit volume of the conductor e.

Hence here we can say that, the drift velocity is not in the same direction as the applied force.
