A spinning wheel is slowed down by a brake, giving it a constant angular acceleration of 25.60 rad/s2. During a 4.20-s time inte
Yuliya22 [3333]

We will use the equations of rotational kinematics,

\theta =\theta _{0} + \omega_{0} t+ \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2             (A)

\omega^2= \omega^2_{0} +2\alpha\theta                                     (B)                                          

Here, \theta and \theta _{0} denote the final and initial angular displacements, respectively, whereas \omega and \omega_{0} represent final and initial angular velocities, and \alpha is the angular acceleration.

We are provided with \alpha = - 25.60 \ rad/s^2, \theta = 62.4 \ rad and t = 4.20 \ s.

By substituting these values into equation (A), we have

62.4 \ rad = 0 + \omega_{0} 4.20 \ s + \frac{1}{2} (- 25.60 \ rad/s^2) ( 4.20)^2 \\\\ \omega_{0} = \frac{220.5+ 62.4 }{4.20} =67.4 \ rad/s

Now, using equation (B),

\omega^2=(67.4 \ rad/s)^2 + 2 (- 25.60 \ rad/s^2)62.4 \ rad \\\\\ \omega = 36.7 \ rad/s

This indicates that the wheel's angular speed at the 4.20-second mark is 36.7 rad/s.

A champion athlete can produce one horsepower (746 W) for a short period of time. The number of 16-cm-high steps a 70-kg athlete
Sav [3153]

Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

Based on the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P stands for power, m is mass, g denotes gravity, h is height, and t represents time.

Rearranging the equation to solve for h, we have:

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Providing values: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Given constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

By substituting into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

Calculating number of steps: 6525/16

The resulting number of steps = 407 steps

The δe of a system that releases 12.4 j of heat and does 4.2 j of work on the surroundings is __________ j.
Yuliya22 [3333]

For this issue, the answer is clarified as the system takes in energy (+). The surroundings contribute 84 KJ of work. Whenever a system is receiving work from its surroundings, the value will be positive. Therefore, it sums to 12.4 KJ + 4.2 = 16.6 KJ.

A vector of magnitude 10 has an angle with the positive x axis (east) of 120 degrees. what are its components
Softa [3030]
The angle formed with the positive x-axis is 120 degrees. We can assume that this angle is determined in a counterclockwise direction from the positive x-axis. The x-component of the vector can be calculated as: x-component = 10 cos(120) = -5. The vector's y-component is determined as: y-component = 10 sin(120) = 8.66. The x-component equates to -5 while the y-component equals 8.66.

A cat accelerates from rest to 10m/s when it sees a dog. This takes 2 seconds. What was the acceleration of the cat
serg [3582]
The acceleration is calculated using the formula a= change in velocity/time. Here, it becomes A=10-0/2, simplifying to A=10/2, resulting in A=5 m/s².
