Since the roundabout operates at a constant angular velocity, the input power equals the frictional power. Given that the frictional power is 2.5 kW, we can express this as frictional torque multiplied by angular velocity: frictional torque x 0.47 = 2.5 kW. Therefore, solving for frictional torque gives us 2.5 / 0.47 kN.m, which amounts to approximately 5.32 kN.m, leading to a rounded value of 5 kN.m. When the power supply is interrupted, the roundabout experiences deceleration due to the influence of the frictional torque.

A pole-vaulter is nearly motionless as he clears the bar, set 4.2 m above the ground. he then falls onto a thick pad. the top of
Yuliya22 [3333]
Refer to the diagram below.

Ignoring air resistance, use gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s².

The pole vaulter drops with an initial vertical speed u = 0.
At impact with the pad, velocity v satisfies:
v² = 2 × (9.8 m/s²) × (4.2 m) = 82.32 (m/s)²
v = 9.037 m/s

As the pad compresses by 0.5 m to bring the vaulter to rest,
let the average acceleration (deceleration) be a m/s². Then:
0 = (9.037 m/s)² + 2 × a × 0.5 m
Solving for a gives:
a = - 82.32 / (2 × 0.5) = -82 m/s²

Thus, the deceleration magnitude is 82 m/s².

A 9.0-V battery moves 20 mC of charge through a circuit running from its positive terminal to its negative terminal. How much en
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

The energy delivered is E = 0.18 J

Explanation:

Given,

Battery voltage, V = 9 V

Charge in the circuit, Q = 20 mC

                                        = 20 x 10³ C

Energy supplied in the circuit can be computed as

E = Q V

E = 20 x 10⁻³ x 9

E =  180 x 10⁻³

E equals 0.18 J.

The energy delivered in the circuit is therefore E = 0.18 J

Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does
Softa [3030]
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.
