Answer:

12.8 meters

Explanation:

m/s means meters per second. So, to find how far it would travel in 3.2 seconds, you would multiply 4 meters every second by 3.2 seconds.

4×3.2=12.8 meters

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 1.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the motion of a body that transverse a circular path.

Data

mass = 7 kg

radius = r = 1.3 m

angular rate = w = 1.0 rev/s

centripetal acceleration = a = ?

Formula

a = rw²

Substitution

a = (1.3)(1)²

Simplification and result

a = 1.3 m/s²

A tradesman sharpens a knife by pushing it with a constant force against the rim of a grindstone. The 30-cm-diameter stone is sp

Lorico [155]

Answer:

a. 0.21 rad/s2

b. 2.205 N

Explanation:

We convert from rpm to rad/s knowing that each revolution has 2π radians and each minute is 60 seconds

200 rpm = 200 * 2π / 60 = 21 rad/s

180 rpm = 180 * 2π / 60 = 18.85 rad/s

r = d/2 = 30cm / 2 = 15 cm = 0.15 m

a)So if the angular speed decreases steadily (at a constant rate) from 21 rad/s to 18.85 rad/s within 10s then the angular acceleration is

$\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{21 - 18.85}{10} = 0.21 rad/s^2$

b) Assume the grind stone is a solid disk, its moment of inertia is

$I = mR^2/2$

Where m = 28 kg is the disk mass and R = 0.15 m is the radius of the disk.

$I = 28*0.15^2/2 = 0.315 kgm^2$

So the friction torque is

$T_f = I\alpha = 0.315*0.21 = 0.06615 Nm$

The friction force is

$F_f = T_f/R = 0.06615 / 0.15 = 0.441 N$

Since the friction coefficient is 0.2, we can calculate the normal force that is used to press the knife against the stone

$N = F_f/\mu = 0.441/0.2 = 2.205 N$

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy

kinetic energy of alpha particle is converted into electric potential energy.

1/2 mv² = k q₁q₂/d , d is closest distance

d = 2kq₁q₂ / mv²

= 2 x 9 x 10⁹ x 79e x 2e / 4mv²

= 1422 x2x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² x 10⁹ /4x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x (1.5 x 10⁷)²

= 3640.32 x 10⁻²⁹ /2x 3.7575 x 10⁻¹³

= 484.4 x 10⁻¹⁶

=48.4 x 10⁻¹⁵ m
