A small rubber wheel is used to drive a large pottery wheel. The two wheels are mounted so that their circular edges touch. The smalldrive-wheel has a radius of 2.20 cm and accelerates at the rate of 8.00 rad/s2, and it is in contact with the pottery wheel (radius 28.0 cm). Both wheels move without slipping. The rubber drive wheel rotates in the clockwise sense. Required:
a. Find the angular acceleration (both magnitude and direction) of the large pottery wheel.
b. Calculate the tune it takes the pottery wheel to reach its required speed of 60 rpm. if both wheels start from rest.

Very large accelerations can injure the body, especially if they last for a considerable length of time. one model used to gauge the likelihood of injury is the severity index ( ), defined as =/ . in the expression, is the duration of the accleration, but is not equal to the acceleration. rather, is a dimensionless constant that = the number of multiples of that the acceleration is equal to.in one set of studies of rear-end collisions, a person's velocity increases by 13.7 km/h with an acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 . let the + direction point in the direction the car is traveling. what is the severity index for the collision?

The second largest public utility in the nation is the sole provider of electricity in 32 counties of southern florida. to meet the monthly demand for electricity in these counties, which is given by the inverse demand function p = 1,200 – 4q, the utility company has set up two electric generating facilities: q1 kilowatts are produced at facility 1, and q2 kilowatts are produced at facility 2 (so q = q1 + q2). the costs of producing electricity at each facility are given by c1(q1) = 8,000 + 6q12 and c2(q2) = 6,000 + 3q22, respectively. determine the profit-maximizing amounts of electricity to produce at the two facilities, the optimal price, and the utility company’s profit
