Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

a. The station is rotating at $1.496 \frac{rev}{min}$

b. the rotation needed is $2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}$

Explanation:

We know that the centripetal acceleration is

$a_{c}= \omega ^2 r$

where $\omega$ is the rotational speed and r is the radius. As the centripetal acceleration is feel like an centrifugal acceleration in the rotating frame of reference (be careful, as the rotating frame of reference is <u>NOT INERTIAL,</u> the centrifugal force is a fictitious force, the real force is the centripetal).

The rotational speed is :

$2.7 \frac{m}{s^2} = \omega ^2 * 110 \ m$

$\omega ^2 = \frac{2.7 \frac{m}{s^2}} {110 \ m}$

$\omega = \sqrt{ 0.02454 \frac{rad^2}{s^2} }$

$\omega = 0.1567 \frac{rad}{s}$

Knowing that there are $2\pi \ rad$ in a revolution and 60 seconds in a minute.

$\omega = 0.1567 \frac{rad}{s} \frac{1 \ rev}{2\pi \ rad} \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min}$

$\omega = 1.496 \frac{rev}{min}$

The rotational speed needed is :

$9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = \omega ^2 * 110 \ m$

$\omega ^2 = \frac{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}} {110 \ m}$

$\omega = \sqrt{ 0.08909 \frac{rad^2}{s^2} }$

$\omega = 0.2985 \frac{rad}{s}$

Knowing that there are $2\pi \ rad$ in a revolution and 60 seconds in a minute.

$\omega = 0.2985 \frac{rev}{min} \frac{1 \ rev}{2\pi \ rad} \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min}$

$\omega = 2.8502 \frac{rev}{min}$

If a builder of mass 75kg climbs a vertical ladder of 25m how much energy has she gained ?

erica [24]

So,

GPE (graviational potential energy) = mass x g x height

GPE is depends on where zero height is defined. In this situation, we define h = 0 as the initial height.

$GPE = 75 \ kg*9.8 \ \frac{m}{s^2}*25 \ m$

$GPE = 18,375 \frac{kg*m^2}{s^2}$

$GPE = 18,375 \ joules(J) \ or \ 18.375 \ kilojoules(kJ)$

The builder has gained 18.375 kJ of PE.

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object

ss7ja [257]

The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed
