A merry-go-round on a playground consists of a horizontal solid disk with a weight of 805 N and a radius of 1.58 m. A child applies a force 49.5 N tangentially to the edge of the disk to start it from rest. What is the kinetic energy of the merry-go-round disk (in J) after 2.95 s?

Answers

Answer:

The value is [tex]KE = 259.6 \ J[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The weight of the horizontal solid disk is  [tex]W = 805 \ N[/tex]

      The radius of the horizontal solid disk is  [tex]r = 1.58 \ m[/tex]

      The force applied by the child is  [tex]F = 49.5 \ N[/tex]

       The time considered is  [tex]t = 2.95 \ s[/tex]

Generally the mass of the  horizontal solid disk is mathematically represented as

          [tex]m_h = \frac{W}{ g}[/tex]

=>       [tex]m_h = \frac{805}{ 9.8 }[/tex]

=>       [tex]m_h = 82.14 \ N[/tex]

Generally the moment of inertia  of the horizontal solid disk is mathematically represented as  

         [tex]I = \frac{1}{2} * m * r^ 2[/tex]

=>      [tex]I = \frac{1}{2} * 82.14 * 1.58^ 2[/tex]  

=>      [tex]I = 102.5 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

Generally the net torque experienced by the horizontal solid disk is mathematically represented as

           [tex]T = I * \alpha = F * r[/tex]

=>         [tex]\alpha = \frac{ F * r }{ I }[/tex]

=>         [tex]\alpha = \frac{ 49.5 * 1.58 }{ 102.53 }[/tex]

=>         [tex]\alpha = 0.7628[/tex]

Gnerally from kinematic equation we have that

         [tex]w = w_o + \alpha t[/tex]

Here  [tex]w_o[/tex] is the initial angular velocity velocity of the horizontal solid disk  which is  [tex]w_o = 0\ rad/s[/tex]

So

           [tex]w = 0 + 0.7628 * 2.95[/tex]

=>        [tex]w = 2.2503 \ rad/s[/tex]

Generally the kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

        [tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} * I * w^2[/tex]

=>      [tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} * 102.53 * 2.2503 ^2[/tex]

=>      [tex]KE = 259.6 \ J[/tex]

The glowing dot represents the transmission of a nerve impulse along the nerves that make up the neural pathway. A nerve impulse is an electrical signal that travels from one nerve cell to another.

Which part of the brain processes this signal?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "Cerebral Cortex"

Explanation:

The neurotransmitter diffuses across the short distance of the synapse and ties to a receptor protein of the objective neuron. At the point when the sub-atomic sign ties to the receptor, the cell film of the objective neuron changes its electrical state and another evaluated expected starts. On the off chance that that evaluated potential is sufficiently able to arrive at limit, the subsequent neuron produces an activity potential at its axon hillock. The objective of this neuron is another neuron in the thalamus of the mind, the piece of the CNS that goes about as a transfer for tactile data.

At another neurotransmitter, synapse is delivered and ties to its receptor. The thalamus at that point sends the sensory information to the cerebral cortex, the furthest layer of dark issue in the brain, where cognizant view of that water temperature starts.

A region of the cortex is particular for imparting signs down to the spinal cord for development. The upper engine neuron is in this area, called the precentral gyrus of the frontal cortex, which has an axon that broadens right down the spinal cord. At the degree of the spinal cord at which this axon makes a neurotransmitter, a reviewed potential happens in the cell membrane of a lower engine neuron.

A certain heat engine does 30.2 kJ of work and dissipates 9.14 kJ of waste heat in a cyclical process.
A) What was the heat input to this engine?
B) What was its efficiency?

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]H_{in}=39.34 kJ[/tex]

b) Efficiency=76.77%

Explanation:

a)

In order to solve this problem, we can use the following formula:

[tex]H_{in}=H_{out}+W[/tex]

the problem provides us with all the necessary information so we can directly use the formula:

[tex]H_{in}=9.14kJ+30.2kJ[/tex]

[tex]H_{in}=39.34 kJ[/tex]

b) In order to find the efficiency, we can use the following formula:

[tex]Efficiency=\frac{W}{H_{in}}*100\%[/tex]

so we get:

[tex]Efficiency=\frac{30.2kJ}{39.34kJ}*100\%[/tex]

Efficiency=76.77%

One of the harmonics of a column of air in a tube that is open at both ends has a frequency of 448 Hz, and the next higher harmonic has a frequency of 576 Hz. What is the fundamental frequency of the air column in this tube?

Answers

Answer:

The fundamental frequency is  [tex]f_1 =128 \ Hz[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequency of one harmonics is  [tex]f_x= 448 \ Hz[/tex]

    The next higher harmonic is  [tex]f_z = 576 \ Hz[/tex]

Generally the frequency of an air column open at both ends is mathematically represented as

              [tex]f_n = \frac{nv }{ 2 L }[/tex]

Here n  is the order of the harmonics (frequency)

        v is the velocity of the sound

        L  is the length of the column

So for one harmonics we have that

        [tex]f_k = \frac{n v }{2L}[/tex]

Then for the next higher harmonics

       [tex]f_x = \frac{n+1 ) v}{2 L }[/tex]

Generally the difference between these frequencies is mathematically represented as  

       [tex]f_z- f_x = \frac{(n+1 )v}{ 2L} - \frac{(n )v}{ 2L}[/tex]

=>    [tex]576 - 448 = \frac{vn + v - nv }{2L}[/tex]

=>    [tex]\frac{ v }{2L} = 128[/tex]

Generally for fundamental  frequency n =  1

So  

       [tex]f_1 = n * \frac{v}{2L}[/tex]

So

       [tex]f_1 =1 * 128[/tex]

=>    [tex]f_1 =128 \ Hz[/tex]

The free-body diagram below shows the forces acting on a bicycle as the
rider pedals to the right. The vectors are not drawn to scale. The bicycle has a
weight of 800 N and a pedaling force of 250 N. As it moves, it encounters 75
N of air resistance. What is the net force on the bicycle in the x-direction?

Answers

Answer:

175 N to the right

Explanation:

I am taking the quiz and this is the correct answer. The pedaling force if 250 N but when it encounters 75 N of air resistance, it reduces to 175 N. This is because the air resistance is going opposite of you.

The weight of the bike and the cyclist are a force that the Earth applies to both of them and that acts vertically and downward, causing an action on the ground. The pedal-pushing force is transmitted from the crank arm to the chainring axis via the transmission forces.

What forces acting on a moving bicycle?

When we press the pedals, the force travels to the back wheel, which then applies pressure to the ground. Strength of action. The pavement responds by exerting a force in the opposite direction but in the same direction on the back wheel. Hence, always move forward.

Therefore, Walking and biking are made possible through la friction. The friction created by the tire's pressure on the ground, It prevents the tire from rotating and keeps the lowest part of the wheel on the ground. The wheel is driven by this force, which is transferred to the wheel axle.

There is a bell at the top of a tower that is 45 m high. The bell weighs 190 N. The bell has ____________ energy.

Answers

Answer:

The bell has 8,550 Joule energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy

Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object because of its height in a gravitational field.

It can be calculated with the equation:

U=m.g.h

Where:

m = mass of the object

h  = height

g  = acceleration of gravity, or [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex]

Since the weight of an object of mass m can be calculated as:

W = m.g

The gravitational potential energy is:

U = W.h

The bell of weight W=190 N at the top of a tower is h=45 m high. Thus its energy is:

U = 190 N . 45 m

U = 8,550 Joule

The bell has 8,550 Joule energy.

In physics, motion is a function of a body's position or orientation over time. Translation is defined as movement across a line or even a curve. Rotation is a motion that modifies a body's orientation. In all scenarios, the acceleration and directed speed of every point on the body are equal (time rate of change of velocity).

Every movement has a frame of reference to which it is related. A body isn't in motion when it is said to be at rest; rather, it is being characterized in relation to a reference frame that's also moving with the body. Maximum potential energy is at point R is best supported by the diagram.

A statement of the second law of thermodynamics is that:__________.
a) spontaneous reactions are always exothermic.
b) energy is conserved in a chemical reaction that has a decrease in entropy.
c) spontaneous reactions are always endothermic.
d) in a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases.

Answers

Answer:

in a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases.

Explanation:

Entropy is a measure of of the degree of  randomness or disorderliness in a system.

The second law of thermodynamics can be stated as follows; "in any spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases."  

The universe here refers to the system's disorder and the disorder of the surroundings.  Therefore, a spontaneous process can occur, in which the entropy of the system decreases, only if the entropy increases in the surroundings.

For instance, when ice freezes, the entropy of liquid water decreases, that is, the entropy of the system decreases. However, heat is given off to the surroundings and the entropy of the surroundings increases. This is an obvious expression of this law.

How do you solve this question?

Answers

Answer:

F = 2250 [N]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first use the following equation of kinematics.

[tex]v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2}-2*a*x[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (come to rest)

Vo =  initial velocity = 30 [m/s]

a = acceleration or desaceleration [m/s²]

x = distance = 100 [m]

[tex](0)=30^{2} -2*a*100\\900 = 200*a\\a = 4.5 [m/s^{2}][/tex]

Now we must use the following equation of kinetics, which is based on Newton's second law that explains that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

F = force [N]

m = mass = 500 [kg]

a = acceleration = 4.5 [m/s²]

[tex]F = 500*4.5\\F = 2250 [N][/tex]
