Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does

Physics

Softa [2K]11 days ago

The astronaut's speed is described in the sentence. The astronaut moves at a rate of 10 meters each minute. To clarify: speed is defined as distance divided by time and is characterized solely by its magnitude, not its direction. Hence, the 10 meters per minute reflects this. We lack information about the astronaut's directional movement. In contrast to speed, velocity incorporates direction as well; for instance, a velocity of 10m/s due west provides a directional context. Consequently, without specified direction, the value indicated is merely speed.

Sav [2230]
The total duration from the stone's drop to the echo being heard is 8.9 seconds. The sound takes 0.9 seconds to reach the listener, meaning it takes the stone 8 seconds to descend to the well's bottom. Using gravitational acceleration, the well's depth calculates to be approximately 313.6 meters.

Modern wind turbines generate electricity from wind power. The large, massive blades have a large moment of inertia and carry a
Yuliya22 [2438]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Each blade resembles a rod with its axis positioned near one end.

The moment of inertia for one blade is:

= 1/3 x m l²

where m stands for the mass of the blade

l represents the length of each blade.

Total moment of inertia for 3 blades is:

= 3 x\frac{1}{3}  x m l²

ml²

2 )

Details provided include:

m = 5500 kg

l = 45 m

Substituting these values produces:

moment of inertia of one blade:

= 1/3 x 5500 x 45 x 45

= 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²

Moment of inertia for 3 blades:

= 3 x 37.125 x 10⁵ kg.m²

= 111.375 x 10⁵ kg.m²

c )

Angular momentum

= I x ω

I denotes the moment of inertia of the turbine

ω symbolizes angular velocity

ω = 2π f

f indicates the rotational frequency of the blades

d )

We have I = 111.375 x 10⁵ kg.m² (Calculated)

f = 11 rpm (revolutions per minute)

= 11 / 60 revolutions per second

ω = 2π f

=  2π x  11 / 60 rad / s

Calculating angular momentum yields

= I x ω

111.375 x 10⁵ kg.m² x  2π x  11 / 60 rad / s

= 128.23 x 10⁵  kgm² s⁻¹.

To study torque experimentally, you apply a force to a beam. One end of the beam is attached to a pivot that allows the beam to
kicyunya [2264]

Answer:

a)  τ = i ^ (y F_{z} - z F_{y}) + j ^ (z Fₓ - x F_{z}) + k ^ (x F_{y} - y Fₓ)

b) τ = (-0.189i ^ -5.6 j ^ + 33.978k ^) N m

c) α = (-7.8 10⁻⁴ i ^ - 2.3 10⁻² j ^ + 1.4 10⁻¹ k ^) rad / s²

Explanation:

a) The torque can be expressed as

        τ = r x F

To tackle this equation, using the determinant approach is the most straightforward method

        \tau =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\x&y&z\\F_{x}&F_{y} &F_{z}\end{array}\right]  

The resulting expression is

      τ = i ^ (y F_{z} - z F_{y}) + j ^ (z Fₓ - x F_{z}) + k ^ (x F_{y} - y Fₓ)

b) Now let's compute

     τ = i ^ (0.075 1.4 -0.035 8.4) + j ^ (0.035 2.8 - 4.07 1.4) + k ^ (4.07 8.4 - 0.075 2.8)

     τ = i ^ (- 0.189) + j ^ (-5.6) + k ^ (33,978)

     τ = (-0.189i ^ -5.6 j ^ + 33.978k ^) N m

c) To find angular acceleration, we use

       τ = I α

       α = τ / I

The moment of inertia being a scalar means that only the magnitude of each component changes, orientation remains constant.

           

     α = (-0.189i^  -5.6 j^  + 33.978k^) / 241

     α = (-7.8 10⁻⁴ i ^ - 2.3 10⁻² j ^ + 1.4 10⁻¹ k ^) rad / s²

Softa [2035]
Mike will get an electric shock. Explanation: The human body acts as a conductor of electricity. When lightning strikes the rod, it acquires a negative charge and immediately discharges this charge when contacting the ground through conductive materials. As a result, Mike is likely to endure a significant electric shock as the negative charge travels through his body to the other rod and into the ground, potentially leading to numbness or even loss of consciousness.

Argon in the amount of 1.5 kg fills a 0.04-m3 piston cylinder device at 550 kPa. The piston is now moved by changing the weights
inna [2210]
275 kPa Explanation: Here the mass of the gas equals m=1.5 kg with an initial volume of V₁=0.04 m³ and an initial pressure P₁=550 kPa. As provided, the final volume is double the original volume, making V₂ equal to 2 V₁. Since the temperature remains constant, T₁=T₂=T. By substituting the values into the equation... results in final pressure being P₂=275 kPa.
