Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:

When a wheel rotates without sliding, the straight-line distance covered by the wheel's center-of-mass is exactly equal to the rotational distance covered by a point on the edge of the wheel. So given that the distances and times are same, the translational speed of the center of the wheel amounts to or becomes the same as the rotational speed of a point on the edge of the wheel.

The formula for calculating the velocity of a point on the edge of the wheel is given as

$V_{r}$ = 2π r / T

Where

π is Pi which mathematically is approximately 3.14159

T is period of time

Vr is Velocity of the point on the edge of the wheel

The answer is left in Meters/Seconds so we will work with our information as is given in the question.

Vr = (2 x 3.14159 x 1.94m)/2.26

Vr = 12.1893692/2.26

Vr = 5.39352619469

Which is approximately 5.39

Question 1.

mass = 4500 kg
potential energy (p.e) = 67500 J

now, we know :

=》

$p.e = mgh$

=》

$67500 = 4500 \times 10 \times h$

=》

$67500 = 45000 \times h$

=》

$h = \dfrac{67500}{45000}$

=》

$h = 1.5 \: m$

note : if we take acceleration due to gravity as 9.8, then height = 1.53 m

Question 2.

mass = 4500 kg
kinetic energy = 63000 j

we know,

=》

$k.e = \dfrac{1}{2} mv {}^{2}$

=》

$63000 = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 4500 \times {v}^{2}$

=》

${v}^{2} = \dfrac{63000 \times 2}{4500}$

=》

${v}^{2} = 28$

=》

$v = \sqrt{28}$

=》

$v = 2 \sqrt{7} \: \: ms {}^{ - 1}$

=》

$5.29 \: \: ms {}^{ - 1}$

A car traveling at 21 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 13 seconds. What is its acceleration?

diamong [38]

The formula for acceleration is the velocity times the inverse of time so it would be 21 times 1/13. So roughly 0.0769... is the acceleration(m/s^2).

a steel sphere and brass ring have diameter 25cm and 24.9cm at 15°C.If the sphere and the ring are heated together.what is the t

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Due to heat energy , metal expands . Formula for linear expansion is as follows .

L = l ( 1 + α Δt )

where L is expanded length , l is original length , α is coefficient of linear expansion and Δt is increase in temperature .

To pass the sphere through the ring , the diameter of both ring and sphere should be same after heating . Let after increase of temperature Δt , their diameter becomes same as L . The linear coefficient of brass and steel are

20 x 10⁻⁶ and 12 x 10⁻⁶ respectively .

For steel sphere ,

L = 25 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

For brass ring

L = 24.9 ( 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

25 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt ) = 24.9 ( 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

1.004( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt ) = ( 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

1.004 + 12.0482 x 10⁻⁶ Δt = 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt

.004 = 7.9518 x 10⁻⁶ Δt

Δt = 4000 / 7.9518

= 503⁰C.

final temp = 503 + 15 = 518⁰C .
