Answer:

a) The linear acceleration of the car is 4.65\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, b) The tires did 7.46 revolutions in 2.50 seconds from rest.

Explanation:

a) A tire experiments a general plane motion, which is the sum of rotation and translation. The linear acceleration experimented by the car corresponds to the linear acceleration at the center of the tire with respect to the point of contact between tire and ground, whose magnitude is described by the following formula measured in meters per square second:

\| \vec a \| = \sqrt{a_{r}^{2} + a_{t}^{2}}

Where:

a_{r} - Magnitude of the radial acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

a_{t} - Magnitude of the tangent acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

Let suppose that tire is moving on a horizontal ground, since radius of curvature is too big, then radial acceleration tends to be zero. So that:

\| \vec a \| = a_{t}

\| \vec a \| = r \cdot \alpha

Where:

\alpha - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

r - Radius of rotation (Radius of a tire), measured in meters.

Given that \alpha = 15\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} and r = 0.31\,m. The linear acceleration experimented by the car is:

\| \vec a \| = (0.31\,m)\cdot \left(15\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)

\| \vec a \| = 4.65\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The linear acceleration of the car is 4.65\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}.

b) Assuming that angular acceleration is constant, the following kinematic equation is used:

\theta = \theta_{o} + \omega_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \alpha \cdot t^{2}

Where:

\theta - Final angular position, measured in radians.

\theta_{o} - Initial angular position, measured in radians.

\omega_{o} - Initial angular speed, measured in radians per second.

\alpha - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If \theta_{o} = 0\,rad, \omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}, \alpha = 15\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}, the final angular position is:

\theta = 0\,rad + \left(0\,\frac{rad}{s}\right)\cdot (2.50\,s) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(15\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (2.50\,s)^{2}

\theta = 46.875\,rad

Let convert this outcome into revolutions: (1 revolution is equal to 2π radians)

\theta = 7.46\,rev

The tires did 7.46 revolutions in 2.50 seconds from rest.

A skier (m=59.0 kg) starts sliding down from the top of a ski jump with negligible friction and takes off horizontally. If h = 3
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

35.20 m

Explanation:

By the law of conservation of energy we have,

mg(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

g(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}v^2

\Rightarrow H=\frac{v^2}{2g}+h

where m= mass of the skier, h= 3.00 m

D= horizontal distance=13.9 m

H= maximum height attained

Also, the horizontal distance covered by the skier is

D=vt

=v\frac{2g}{h}

\Rightarrow v^2=\frac{gD^2}{2h}

thus, height H in terms of D  is given by

H=\frac{D^2}{2h}+h

H=\frac{13.9^2}{2\times3}+3

H=35.20 m

The main difference between a series and a parallel circuit is that
ale4655 [162]
C) is correct

series circuit - in the same path : current flow on one path so they are equal on each component and equal to the source's. voltage on each components may be different.

parallel circuit - between same nodes : voltage of the components are equal and equal to the source's. current on each components may be different.
