peach pie in a 9.00 in diameter plate is placed upon a rotating tray. Then, the tray is rotated such that the rim of the pie pla

zavuch27 [327]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of the peach pie, d = 9 inches

Radius of the pie, r = 4.5 inches

The tray is rotated such that the rim of the pie plate moves through a distance of 183 inches, d = 183 inches

Let $\theta$ is the angular distance that the pie plate has moved through.

It is given by :

$\theta=\dfrac{d}{r}$

$\theta=\dfrac{183}{4.5}$

$\theta=40.66\ radian$

Since, 1 radian = 57.29 degrees

$\theta=2329.64\ degrees$

Since, 1 radian = 0.159155 revolution

$\theta=6.47124\ revolution$

Hence, this is the required solution.

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

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

$T = 16.8 s$

Why is there no drag in space?????? Help me please!!! Thanks!!!

astraxan [27]

It is beacuse of fluid If there is no fluid, there is no drag. Drag is generated by the difference in velocity between the solid object and the fluid. If this statement is correct then how can there be drag in space if there is no air?

What momentum does a 70 kg person running 10m/s (a fast sprint) have ?

gogolik [260]

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (70 kg) x (10 m/s)

<em>Momentum = 700 kg-m/s</em>
