At time t=0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 29.0 rad/s . It has a constant angular acceleration of 29.0 rad/s2 until a circuit breaker trips at time t = 2.30 s . From then on, the wheel turns through an angle of 433 rad as it coasts to a stop at constant angular deceleration.

A) Through what total angle did the wheel turn between t=0 and the time it stopped?

Express your answer in radians.

B) At what time does the wheel stop?

Express your answer in seconds.

C) What was the wheel's angular acceleration as it slowed down?

Express your answer in rad/s2.

An object at rest explodes into three fragments. The figure shows the momentum vectors of two of the fragments:

  • vector P1 is directed along the px axis and has a magnitude of 67.0 kg m/s.
  • vector P2 is at an angle of 50.0° measured counterclockwise from the positive px axis and has a magnitude of 92.0 kg m/s.

What are the px and py components of the momentum of the third fragment?

Answer question 2!!

1. a boat is bobbing up and down on the water as waves pass underneath it. The depth of the water under the boat oscillates between 3 m and 4 m. The boat is stationary with respect to the shore and it is 2.9s between the crests of successive waves. A person on shore sees the crests of the wave passing by at 2 m/s. what is the distance between crests of this wave?

2. Two ducks are floating close together on the water near the boat in problem 1. When the first duck is on the peak of a passing wave the second duck is 30 cm below it and moving upwards. How far apart are the ducks?

Dario, a prep cook at an Italian restaurant, spins a salad spinner and observes that it rotates 20.0 times in 5.00 seconds and then stops spinning it. The salad spinner rotates 6.00 more times before it comes to rest. Assume that the spinner slows down with constant angular acceleration.

What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the salad spinner as it slows down?

Express your answer numerically in radians per second per second.

Radiation from the head is a major source of heat loss from the human body. Model a head as a 21-cm-diameter, 20-cm-tall cylinder with a flat top.

If the body's surface temperature is 36?C , what is the net rate of heat loss on a chilly 9?C  day? All skin, regardless of color, is effectively black in the infrared where the radiation occurs, so use an emissivity of 0.95.

I have worked it through three times with other written solutions however i cannot arrive at the correct answer. A final answer as well as a solution would be appreciated! Thanks!
