A centrifuge used in DNA extraction spins at a maximum rate of 7000rpm producing a "g-force" on the sample that is 6000 times th

e force of gravity. If the centrifuge takes 10 seconds to come to rest from the maximum spin rate: a) What is the angular acceleration of the centrifuge? b)what is the angular displacement of the centrifuge during this time

Answer:

A) a = 73.304 rad/s²

B) Δθ = 3665.2 rad

Explanation:

A) From Newton's first equation of motion, we can say that;

a = (ω - ω_o)/t. We are given that the centrifuge spins at a maximum rate of 7000rpm.

Let's convert to rad/s = 7000 × 2π/60 = 733.04 rad/s

Thus change in angular velocity = (ω - ω_o) = 733.04 - 0 = 733.04 rad/s

We are given; t = 10 s

Thus;

a = 733.04/10

a = 73.304 rad/s²

B) From Newton's third equation of motion, we can say that;

ω² = ω_o² + 2aΔθ

Where Δθ is angular displacement

Making Δθ the subject;

Δθ = (ω² - ω_o²)/2a

At this point, ω = 0 rad/s while ω_o = 733.04 rad/s

Thus;

Δθ = (0² - 733.04²)/(2 × 73.304)

Δθ = -537347.6416/146.608

Δθ = - 3665.2 rad

We will take the absolute value.

Thus, Δθ = 3665.2 rad

An air hockey game has a puck of mass 30 grams and a diameter of 100 mm. The air film under the puck is 0.1 mm thick. Calculate
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

time required after impact for a puck is 2.18 seconds

Explanation:

given data

mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m

thick = 0.1 mm = 1 ×10^{-4} m

dynamic viscosity = 1.75 ×10^{-5} Ns/m²

air temperature = 15°C

to find out

time required after impact for a puck to lose 10%

solution

we know velocity varies here 0 to v

we consider here initial velocity = v

so final velocity = 0.9v

so change in velocity is du = v

and clearance dy = h

and shear stress acting on surface is here express as

= µ \frac{du}{dy}

so

= µ  \frac{v}{h}   ............1

put here value

= 1.75×10^{-5} × \frac{v}{10^{-4}}

= 0.175 v

and

area between air and puck is given by

Area = \frac{\pi }{4} d^{2}

area  =  \frac{\pi }{4} 0.1^{2}

area = 7.85 × \frac{v}{10^{-3}} m²

so

force on puck is express as

Force = × area

force = 0.175 v × 7.85 × 10^{-3}

force = 1.374 × 10^{-3} v    

and now apply newton second law

force = mass × acceleration

- force = mass \frac{dv}{dt}

- 1.374 × 10^{-3} v = 0.03 \frac{0.9v - v }{t}

t =  \frac{0.1 v * 0.03}{1.37*10^{-3} v}

time = 2.18

so time required after impact for a puck is 2.18 seconds
