Answer:

25.0 m / 10 m/s = 2.5 s

50.0 / 9.5 = 5.26 s

25.0 / 11.1 = 2.25 s

T (Wood) = 2.5 + 5.26 + 2.25 = 10.0 s

Mrs Wood runs 10 s vs 10.4 for Mr Overstreet

At what rate must a cylindrical spaceship rotate if occupants are to experience simulated gravity of 0.50 gg? Assume the spacesh

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The time needed is $T = 16.8 s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the stimulated acceleration due gravity is $a = 0.5 g$

The diameter of the spaceship is $d = 35m$

Generally the force acting on the spaceship is

$F = ma$

Given that the spaceship is rotating it implies that the force experienced by the occupant is a centripetal force so

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Thus

$ma = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

=> $\frac{v^2}{r} = a$

Generally the speed of this spaceship is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{2 \pi}{T}$

=> $v^2 = [\frac{2\pi}{T}] ^2$

=> $\frac{\frac{4\pi^2 r^2}{T^2} }{r} = 0.5g$

=> $\frac{4 \pi^2 r }{T^2} = 0.5 g$

=> $T = \sqrt{ \frac{4\pi^2 r}{0.5g}}$

substituting values

$T = \sqrt{ \frac{4* (3.142)^2 *(35)}{0.5 * 9.8}}$

$T = 16.8 s$

a 1 m length of string is wrapped around a solid disk, of mass .25 kg and a radius of .30m, mounted on a frictionless axle. the

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

60 rad/s

Explanation:

∑τ = Iα

Fr = Iα

For a solid disc, I = ½ mr².

Fr = ½ mr² α

α = 2F / (mr)

α = 2 (20 N) / (0.25 kg × 0.30 m)

α = 533.33 rad/s²

The arc length is 1 m, so the angle is:

s = rθ

1 m = 0.30 m θ

θ = 3.33 rad

Use constant acceleration equation to find ω.

ω² = ω₀² + 2αΔθ

ω² = (0 rad/s)² + 2 (533.33 rad/s²) (3.33 rad)

ω = 59.6 rad/s

Rounding to one significant figure, the angular velocity is 60 rad/s.
