Answer:

(B) 15 N.m

Explanation:

The deceleration of the wheel is first found by using the following formula:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}

where,

α = angular acceleration = ?

ωf = final angular speed = 0 rad/s

ωi = initial angular speed = 12 rad/s

t = time = 0.4 s

Therefore,

\alpha = \frac{0\ rad/s - 12\ rad/s}{0.4\ s}\\\\\alpha = -30\ rad/s^2

here, the negative sign shows deceleration.

Now, we find the torque responsible for this deceleration:

\tau = I\alpha

where,

τ = torque = ?

I = rotational inertia = 0.5 kg.m²

Therefore,

\tau = (0.5\ kg.m^2)(30\ rad/s^2)\\

τ = 15 N.m

Therefore, the correct answer is:

<u>(B) 15 N.m</u>

charle [14.2K]

Answer:Velocity = 6.325m/s

Directional angle= 18.43°

Explanation:

Using Right angle triangle

Let Velocity of ballon&hawk be VHB represent the height of the triangle.

Let Velocity of balloon angle ground be VBG represent adjacent of the triangle.

Let Velocity of hawk and ground BE VHG represent the hypothesis.

Theta = opp/Adj= VHB/VBG

using pythagorean

VHG= SQRT(VHB^2+VBG^2)

VHG= sqrt(2^2+6^2)

VHG= sqrt(4+36)

VHG= 6.325m/s

Tan theta= 2/6

Tan theta =0.3333

Tan^-1 0.3333=18.43°

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

melting of rock deep underground.

Explanation:

The melting of rocks deep underground does not produce sedimentary rocks. Most igneous rocks are produced by this process.

When molten rocks underground called magma is solidified in the subsurface, it results into the formation of igneous bodies.

  • Sedimentary rocks forms by the accumulation of sediments.
  • Inside the basin where the sediments are deposited, they are compacted, cemented and lithified.
  • Chemical and physical weathering of rocks produces sediments.
