What is 1/12+7/9 hj​
Umnica [9.8K]

Explanation:

\frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1 \times 3}{12 \times 3}  +  \frac{7 \times 4}{9 \times 4} \\  \\  =  \frac{3}{36}  +  \frac{28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{3 + 28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{31}{36}  \\  \\   \huge \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \:  \frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  =  \frac{31}{36} }} \\

A swift blow with the hand can break a pine board. As the hand hits the board, the kinetic energy of the hand is transformed int
Stells [14]

Answer:

A. The hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.

B. Average force on the hand = 1025 N

Explanation:

A.To determine the speed the hand must move with to break the board, the force workdone in breaking the board is found first.

Workdone = force × distance

Minimum force required = 870 N;

Distance moved by board/Deflection in order to break = 1.4 cm = 0.014 M

Workd done = 870 N × 0.014 m = 12.18 Nm or 12.18 J

This work done = Kinetic energy of the hand

Kinetic energy = mv²/2 ; where m is mass and v is velocity

Mass of hand = 0.50 Kg, velocity = ?, K.E. = 12.18 J

v² = 2 KE/m

v = √2KE/m

v = √(2 × 12.18/0.50)

v = 6.98 m/s

Therefore, the hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.

B. Average force on the hand

This can be determined using the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as to find acceleration, since force = mass × acceleration

From the equation of motion, a = v² - u²/2s

At rest, v = 0, u = 6.98, s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

a = 0² - 6.98²/ 2 × 0.012

a = -2030 m/s²

Force = 2030 m/s² × 0. 50 kg = 1015 N

Therefore, Average force on the hand = 1025 N

A girl and a boy are riding on a merry go round that is turning at a constant rate. The girl is near the outer edge, and the boy
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The girl has greater tangential acceleration

Explanation:

The angular acceleration (\alpha) of the merry go round is equal to the rate of the change of the angular velocity, \omega:

\alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt}

Since all the points of the merry go round complete 1 circle in the same time, the angular velocity of each point of the merry go round is the same, and so all the points also have the same angular acceleration.

The tangential acceleration instead is given by

a_t = \alpha r

where

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the distance from the centre of the merry go round

Since the girl is near the outer edge and the boy is closer to the centre, the value of r for the girl is larger than for the boy, so the girl has greater tangential acceleration.
