Answer:

Explanation:

The sense of weightlessness in orbiting satellite is because of the lack of any contact-forces. ... Thus, both the astronaut and the satellite have the same value of g, which is again equal to the centripetal acceleration of the satellite. These two neutralize each other, causing everything to appear weightless.

A uniform disk with a mass of 5.0 kg and diameter 30 cm rotates on a frictionless fixed axis through its center and perpendicula
igomit [66]

Answer:

Angular acceleration of the disk will be \alpha =10.714rad/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given mass of the disk m = 5 kg

Diameter of the disk d = 30 cm = 0.3 m

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.3}{2}=0.15m

Moment of inertia of disk is given by I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 0.15^2=0.056kgm^2

Force is given by F=4 N

Torque is given as \tau =Fr=4\times 0.15=0.6N-m

We also know that torque is given by \tau =I\alpha

0.6=0.056\times \alpha

\alpha =10.714rad/sec^2

What is your REASONING for this CLAIM? EXPLAIN WHY your claim is true.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

IV: speed of the fan

DV: time of cup ascent

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of mass in motion. The kinetic energy of an object is the energy it has because of its motion. As the speed of the fan increases, so does the kinetic energy, then it transfers energy to the Cup ascent.

A coach shouts "Go!" from the finish line of a 100.0-m track to the runners.
irina [24]

Answer:

a. Speed = 342.5 meters per seconds.

b. Wavelength = 2.0 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 100m

Time = 292 milliseconds to seconds = 292/1000 = 0.292 seconds

Frequency = 171 Hz

a. To find the speed of sound in air;

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 100/0.292

Speed = 342.5 m/s

b. To find the wavelength;

Wavelength = speed/frequency

Wavelength = 342.5/171

Wavelength = 2.0 m
