The Nardo ring is a circular test track for cars. It has a circumference of 12.5 km. Cars travel around the track at a constant

speed of 100 km/h. A car starts at the easternmost point of the ring and drives for 30 minutes at this speed.
Required:
a. What distance, in km, does the car travel?
b. What is the magnitude of the car's displacement, in km, from its initial position?
c. What is the speed of the car in m/s?

Answer: 50 km, 0, 27.78 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Circumference of the track is $12.5\ km$

Speed of car is $100\ km/h$

Car drives for $30\ \text{minute}\ or\ 0.5\ hr$

(a)Distance traveled is

$\Rightarrow D=100\times 0.5\\\Rightarrow D=50\ km$

(b)displacement of the car

It can be observed that 12.5 is a multiple of 50, that is, 50 km can be interpreted as 4 complete rounds of the track.

Therefore, the displacement of the car is zero.

(c)To convert kmph to m/s, multiply the entity by $\frac{5}{18}$

$\Rightarrow 100\times \dfrac{5}{18}\\\\\Rightarrow 27.78\ m/s$

A ball bearing of radius of 1.5 mm made of iron of density

Serjik [45]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Viscosity \ of \ glycerine \ (\eta) = 14.382 \ poise}$

Given:

Radius of ball bearing (r) = 1.5 mm = 0.15 cm

Density of iron (ρ) = 7.85 g/cm³

Density of glycerine (σ) = 1.25 g/cm³

Terminal velocity (v) = 2.25 cm/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 980.6 cm/s²

To Find:

Viscosity of glycerine ( $\sf \eta$ )

Explanation:

$\boxed{ \bold{v = \frac{2}{9} \frac{( {r}^{2} ( \rho - \sigma)g)}{ \eta} }}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \frac{( {r}^{2}( \rho - \sigma)g )}{v}$

Substituting values of r, ρ, σ, v & g in the equation:

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \frac{( {(0.15)}^{2} \times (7.85 - 1.25) \times 980.6)}{2.25}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \frac{(0.0225 \times 6.6 \times 980.6)}{2.25}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \times \frac{145.6191}{2.25}$

$\sf \implies \eta = \frac{2}{9} \times 64.7196$

$\sf \implies \eta = 2 \times 7.191$

$\sf \implies \eta = 14.382 \: poise$

Having landed on a newly discovered planet, an astronaut sets up a simple pendulum of length 1.38 m and finds that it makes 441

Tasya [4]

The period of a simple pendulum is given by:
$T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$
where L is the pendulum length, and g is the gravitational acceleration of the planet. Re-arranging the formula, we get:
$g= \frac{4 \pi^2}{T^2}L$ (1)

We already know the length of the pendulum, L=1.38 m, however we need to find its period of oscillation.

We know it makes N=441 oscillations in t=1090 s, therefore its frequency is
$f= \frac{N}{t}= \frac{441}{1090 s}=0.40 Hz$
And its period is the reciprocal of its frequency:
$T= \frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{0.40 Hz}=2.47 s$

So now we can use eq.(1) to find the gravitational acceleration of the planet:
$g= \frac{4 \pi^2}{T^2}L = \frac{4 \pi^2}{(2.47 s)^2} (1.38 m) =8.92 m/s^2$

Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) was added to pure water (H2O). Which most likely were the pH values of the water before and after the so

Anastaziya [24]

Before 7 after 9. A pH smaller than 7 indicates acidity with 0 being completely acidic. A pH greater than 7 shows alkalinity with 14 being completely alkaline. 7 is neutral. Since NaOH is alkaline, adding it to a neutral substance would increase the pH and it would increase from 7 to 9.

A 3600 kg rocket traveling at 2900 m/s is moving freely through space on a journey to the moon. The ground controllers find that

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

m=417.24 kg

Explanation:

Given Data

Initial mass of rocket M = 3600 Kg

Initial velocity of rocket vi = 2900 m/s

velocity of gas vg = 4300 m/s

Θ = 11° angle in degrees

To find

m = mass of gas

Solution

Let m = mass of gas

first to find Initial speed with angle given

So

Vi=vi×tanΘ...............tan angle

Vi= 2900m/s × tan (11°)

Vi=563.7 m/s

Now to find mass

m = (M ×vi ×tanΘ)/( vg + vi tanΘ)

put the values as we have already solve vi ×tanΘ

m = (3600 kg ×563.7m/s)/(4300 m/s + 563.7 m/s)

m=417.24 kg
