49. \ A rectangular plate is rotating with a constant angular speed about an axis that passes perpendicularly through one corner

, as the drawing shows. The centripetal acceleration measured at corner A is n times as great as that measured at corner B. What is the ratio L1/L2 of the lengths of the sides of the rectangle when n

Answer:

    \frac{L_1}{L_2} = \sqrt{(n^2 - 1)}

Explanation:

For this interesting problem, we use the definition of centripetal acceleration  

      a = v² / r  

angular and linear velocity are related  

     v = w r  

we substitute  

    a = w² r

the rectangular body rotates at an angular velocity w  

We locate the points, unfortunately the diagram is not shown. In this case we have the axis of rotation in a corner, called O, in one of the adjacent corners we call it A and the opposite corner A  

the distance OB = L₂  

the distance AB = L₁

the sides of the rectangle  

It is indicated that the acceleration in in A and B are related  

      a_A = n \ a_B  

we substitute the value of the acceleration  

    w² r_A = n r_B  

the distance from the each corner is  

    r_B = L₂  

    r_A = \sqrt{L_1^2 + L_2^2}  

we substitute  

   \sqrt{L_1^2 + L_2^2} = n L₂  

    L₁² + L₂² = n² L₂²  

    L₁² = (n²-1) L₂²

Lindsay is planning a flight from St. Catharines to Hamilton, which lies due west of St. Catharines. Her aircraft flies at a spe
olga nikolaevna [1]

Lindsay has to fly this plane towards this direction [W 12.5° S] to get to Hamilton.

From this question, the plane is still up in the air.

We have wind blowing in [W 60° N ]

To solve the problem we have to make use of the sine rule

\frac{SinA}{a}=\frac{SinB}{b} =\frac{SinC}{c}

We put the values in the equation, we have:

50/Sinθ = 200/sin60°

The next step is to cross multiply

50 x sin60° = 200Sinθ

50 x 0.8660 = 200sinθ

We make Sin θ the subject

Sine θ = 43.30/200

sine θ = 0.2165

we find the value of θ

θ = sine⁻¹(0.2165)

θ = 12.50

So Lindsay has to fly this plane towards this direction

[W 12.5° S]

What happens to air pressure as altitude decreases
Ksivusya [100]
Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
