Two disks are rotating about the same axis. Disk A has a moment of inertia of 3.4 kg m^2 and an angular velocity of 7.2 rad/s. Disk B is rotating with an angular velocity of -9.8 rad/s. The two disks are then linked together without the aid of any external torques, so that they rotate as a single unit with an angular velocity of -2.4 rad/s. The axis of rotation for this unit is the same as that for the separate disks. What is the moment of inertia of disk B

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I = 4.4 kg*m^2

Explanation:

As no external torques are present, total angular momentum must be conserved, as follows:

       [tex]L_{o} = L_{f} (1)[/tex]

The initial angular momentum of the two disks rotating separately, can be written as follows:

       [tex]L_{o} =I_{A} * \omega_{oA} + I_{B} * \omega_{oB} (2)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens, we get:

       [tex]L_{o} = 3.4kg*m2 * 7.2rad/s + I_{B} * (-9.8 rad/s) (3)[/tex]

The final angular momentum Lf, as the axis of rotation remains the same, is the product of the moment of inertia of both disks rotating as one, and the common angular velocity ωf, as follows:

       [tex]L_{f} = (I_{A} + I_{B}) *\omega_{f} (4)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens, we get:

       [tex]L_{f} = (3.4 kg*m2 + I_{B} ) * (-2.4 rad/s) (5)[/tex]

From (3) and (5), we can solve for IB, as follows:IB = 4.4 kg*m2

What is conductor?

Materials that easily permit the flow of electricity are referred to be electrical conductors. Conductivity is the quality of conductors that enables them to conduct electricity.

Electric current is the name given to the movement of electrons through conductor. Voltage is the amount of power necessary to cause that current to flow through the conductor.

Such an element receives a charge that is dispersed along its entire surface, causing the electrons inside the element to migrate. Charges are transferred to an electrical conductor, and they disperse until the minimal force of repulsion between electrons in locations of excess electrons. Such an item transfers its charge to another conductor when it comes into contact with it, reducing the overall repulsion caused by charge in the process.

A. 76.6 A
B. 0.048 A
C. 20.8 A
D. 270 A

Correct answer is B!

Answers

Considering the Ohm's law, the correct answer is option B. the current is 0.048 A.

Definition of current

The flow of electricity through an object, such as a wire, is known as current (I). Its unit of measure is amps (A). So the current is a measure of the speed at which the charge passes a given reference point in a specified direction.

Definition of voltage

The driving force (electrical pressure) behind the flow of a current is known as voltage and is measured in volts (V) (voltage can also be referred to as the potential difference or electromotive force). That is, voltage is a measure of the work required to move a charge from one point to another.

Definition of resistance

Resistance (R) is the difficulty that a circuit opposes to the flow of a current and it is measured in ohms (Ω).

Ohm's law

Ohm's law establishes the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance in an electrical circuit.

This law establishes that the intensity of the current that passes through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the same and inversely proportional to the resistance that it presents.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is expressed as:

[tex]I=\frac{V}{R}[/tex]

Where I is the current measured in amps (A), V the voltage measured in volts (V); and R the resistance that is measured in ohms (Ω).

This case

In this case, you know that the voltage between two points in a circuit is 3.6 V and the resistance between the points is 75 Ω.

Replacing in the Ohm's Law:

[tex]I=\frac{3.6 volts}{75 ohm}[/tex]

Solving:

I= 0.048 amps

Finally, the correct answer is option B. the current is 0.048 A.

                      Question 2

ACCORDING TO THE DIAGRAM DRAWN FOR QUESTION 2

we have to decide where the center of gravity (G) lies and obviously it should lie somewhere near to the greater mass. (which is 1.8 kg). Since we don't know the distance from center of gravity(G) to the mass (1.8 kg) we'll take it as 'x' and solve!!

moments around 'G'

F₁ d ₁ = F₂ d ₂

12 (2-X) = 18 (X)

24 -12 X =18 X

∴  X = 0.8 m

∴ ( 2 - x ) = 1.2 m

∴ Moment of inertia (I) going through the center of mass of two masses,

⇒ I = m (r)² +M (r)²

⇒ I = 1.2 × (1.2)² + 1.8 × (0.8)²

⇒ I = 1.2 × 1.44 + 1.8 × 0.64

⇒ I = 1.728 + 1.152

⇒ ∴ I = 2.88 kg m²

a) ll and ill only
b) I only II only
c) I, II, and III
d) I and Il only

Answers

Answer:

a) ll and Ill only

Explanation:

Let the mass of the wrench = m

and the mass of the astronaut = M

Initially, the velocity of the astronaut and wrench are zero.

The astronaut throws the wrench in one direction and subsequently recoils back with a velocity in the opposite direction.

Let v and V be the velocity of the wrench and the velocity of the astronaut respectively.

In space, there is no external force acting, the momentum must be conserved.

So, m(0)+M(0)=m(v)+M(V)

So, 0=mv+MV

[tex]\Rightarrow mv=-MV[/tex] ...(i)

Here, the momentum of the wrench = mv, and the momentum of the astronaut= MV. The negative sign showing that both the momentum are in opposite direction.

Therefore, the momentum of the wrench is equal and opposite to the momentum of the astronaut.

According to Newton's second law, the rate of change of momentum = applied force.

Let it take [tex]\Delta t[/tex] seconds to change the momentum.

So, for the wrench

[tex]m(v-0)/\Delta t= F_w \\\\\Rightarrow m(v-0)=F_w\Delta t \\\\\Rightarrow mv=F_w\Delta t \cdots(ii)[/tex]

Here, [tex]F_w\Delta t[/tex] is the impulse applied to the wrench.

Similarly, for the astronaut

[tex]M(-V-0)/\Delta t= F_a[/tex] [negative sign (-V) for opposite direction]

[tex]\Rightarrow M(-V-0)=F_a\Delta t \\\\\Rightarrow -MV=F_a\Delta t[/tex]

Here, [tex]F_a\Delta t[/tex] is the impulse applied to the astronaut.

So, the impulse on the astronaut.

By using equations (i) and (ii)

[tex]F_a\Delta t=F_w\Delta t[/tex]

Therefore, the impulse applied to the wrench is equal and opposite to the impulse applied to the astronaut.

Hence, option (a) is correct.

You hit a hockey puck and it slides across the ice at nearly a constant speed.Is a force keeping it in motion?Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

When the puck is sliding on the ice, there is no force being exerted on the puck to keep it moving forward. Instead, inertia keeps the puck moving forward. Friction between the puck and the ice gradually slows the puck down. You hit a hockey puck and it slides across the ice at nearly a constant speed

At constant speed and varying position of the hockey puck, implies a change in the velocity of the hockey puck and net force is acting on it to keep it in motion.

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force applied to a an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

F = ma

Acceleration is the change in the velocity of an object per change in time of motion.

At constant velocity, the acceleration of an object is zero.When acceleration of an object is zero, the force on the object is zero.A constant speed (magnitude only) and change in the direction of the object, implies a change in velocity of the object.at changing velocity, the acceleration on an object is positive, and hence net force acts on the object.

Thus, we can conclude that at constant speed and varying position of the hockey puck, implies a change in the velocity of the hockey puck and net force is acting on it to keep it in motion.

Answers

Answer:

Wave B has the longest wavelength

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase.

The wavelength of a wave is also defined as the distance between successive crests or troughs along the z-axis.

A crest is the point of maximum upward displacement whereas a trough is a point of maximum downward displacement.

Comparing the three waves A, B and C over a unit distance.

Wave A:

Wave A has three crests and two troughs. The wave begins and ends at the rest position. There are 2½ successive points in phase in wave A

Therefore, the wavelength = 1/2.5 = 0.4

Wave B:

Over a unit distance, wave B has two crests and one trough. The wave begins at the rest position and ends at the top of a crest. There are 1¼ successive points in phase in wave B

Therefore, the wavelength = 1/1¼ = 0.8

Wave C:

Over a unit distance, wave C has four crests and four troughs. The wave begins and ends at the rest position.

There are 4 successive points in phase in wave B

Therefore, the wavelength = 1/4 = 0.25

Therefore, wave B has longest wavelength

Have you ever cut an apple in half and looked at the layers inside? When you cut something in half, the resulting view is called a cross section. When you look at the cross section of an apple, you see several layers: the skin, the pulp, the core, and the seeds. Much like the apple, Earth is made up of layers, too. If you could look at a cross section of our planet, you would see the crust. the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core. If Earth were an apple, the crust would be the apple’s skin. The mantle would be the apple’s pulp, making up most of the inside. Earth also has a central core, similar to an apple’s core, though Earth’s core does not contain any seeds! Of course, scientists cannot cut the whole planet in half to see a cross section the way you can with an apple. How do you think scientists know about Earth’s internal layers?

Scientists divide Earth’s interior into distinct layers.

Scientists can distinguish different layers in Earth depending on the properties used to identify each layer. For example, scientists identify the crust, mantle, and core based on each layer’s basic chemical composition. In other words, the crust, mantle, and core are each made up of different chemical elements. The crust and mantle are composed primarily of the elements oxygen and silicon. These are known as silicates. Silicates of the mantle contain heavier elements. This makes them denser than those found in the crust. The core is composed of the densest materials, primarily iron and nickel. Earth’s layers can also be identified by using each layer’s physical state of matter. The crust and the uppermost part of the mantle, together, make up a layer called the lithosphere. The lithosphere is the cool, rigid, outermost layer of Earth. The lithosphere is in the solid
In a typical silicate molecule, a silicon atom is bonded to four oxygen atoms. The atoms form a crystal structure.

Scientists use models to represent the different layers of Earth’s interior.

When constructing a model of the layers of Earth, scientists need to consider the chemical composition, state of matter, and thickness of each layer. Just like the skin of an apple, Earth’s crust is very thin compared to the other layers. It is about 25–70 km thick beneath the continents. Under the oceans, the crust is only about 5–7 km thick; however, it is much denser. The mantle is much thicker than the crust is, taking up most of Earth’s volume. The mantle begins directly beneath Earth’s crust. It reaches all the way to the outer core, about 2,900 km below the planet’s surface. In other words, Earth is about 1% crust, 83% mantle, and 16% core.

The crust and uppermost mantle are solid. The rest of the mantle is solid with plasticity. The core is made of very dense iron and nickel. The outer core is liquid, because it is hot enough to melt the iron and nickel. The inner core is solid. Even though it is as hot as the outer core, there is so much pressure at the very center of Earth that the iron and nickel stay in a solid state.

Looking to the Future: Exploring Earth’s Interior

Despite what you may have read in stories or seen in movies, scientists have never journeyed to the center of Earth. In fact, scientists have never made it through Earth’s crust! However, this has not stopped them from trying. The crust at the bottom of the oceans is much thinner than the crust of the continents. Therefore, drilling through the oceanic crust is the best chance that scientists have to make it to the mantle.

Answers

Answer:

Except in the crust, the interior of the Earth cannot be studied by drilling holes to take samples. Instead, scientists map the interior by watching how seismic waves from earthquakes are bent, reflected, sped up, or delayed by the various layers.

The wavelength of a water wave is 54 m. It has a frequency of 0.03 Hz. What is the velocity of the wave?

Answers

Answer:

1.62 m/s

Explanation:

Wavelength of the water wave= 54 m

The frequency is 0.03 Hz

Therefore the velocity can be calculated as follows

Velocity= frequency × wavelength

= 0.03 × 54

= 1.62 m/s

PLEASE I really need help with this question!!!!!!!!!! It all began with Effie's getting something in her eye. It hurt very much indeed, and it felt something like a red-hot sparkonly it seemed to have legs as well, and wings like a fly. Effie rubbed and criednot real crying, but the kind your eye does all by itself without your being miserable inside your mindand then she went to her father to have the thing in her eye taken out. Effie's father was a doctor, so of course he knew how to take things out of eyes.When he had gotten the thing out, he said: "This is very curious." Effie had often got things in her eye before, and her father had always seemed to think it was naturalrather tiresome and naughty perhaps, but still natural. He had never before thought it curious.Effie stood holding her handkerchief to her eye, and said: "I don't believe it's out." People always say this when they have had something in their eyes."Oh, yesit's out," said the doctor. "Here it is, on the brush. This is very interesting."Effie had never heard her father say that about anything that she had any share in. She said: "What?"The doctor carried the brush very carefully across the room, and held the point of it under his microscopethen he twisted the brass screws of the microscope, and looked through the top with one eye."Dear me," he said. "Dear, dear me! Four well-developed limbs; a long caudal appendage; five toes, unequal in lengths, almost like one of the Lacertidae, yet there are traces of wings." The creature under his eye wriggled a little in the castor oil, and he went on: "Yes; a bat-like wing. A new specimen, undoubtedly. Effie, run round to the professor and ask him to be kind enough to step in for a few minutes.""You might give me sixpence, Daddy," said Effie, "because I did bring you the new specimen. I took great care of it inside my eye, and my eye does hurt."The doctor was so pleased with the new specimen that he gave Effie a shilling, and presently the professor stepped round. He stayed to lunch, and he and the doctor quarreled very happily all the afternoon about the name and the family of the thing that had come out of Effie's eye.But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoonspread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth. There it sat, stroking itself with its feet and stretching its wings, and Harry said: "Why, it's a tiny newt!"The professor leaned forward before the doctor could say a word. "I'll give you half a crown for it, Harry, my lad," he said, speaking very fast; and then he picked it up carefully on his handkerchief."It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor."It was a tiny lizard, about half an inch longwith scales and wings.So now the doctor and the professor each had a specimen, and they were both very pleased. But before long these specimens began to seem less valuable. For the next morning, when the knife-boy was cleaning the doctor's boots, he suddenly dropped the brushes and the boot and the blacking, and screamed out that he was burnt.And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings."Why," said Effie, "I know what it is. It is a dragon like the one St. George killed."And Effie was right. That afternoon Towser was bitten in the garden by a dragon about the size of a rabbit, which he had tried to chase, and the next morning all the papers were full of the wonderful "winged lizards" that were appearing all over the country. The papers would not call them dragons, because, of course, no one believes in dragons nowadaysand at any rate the papers were not going to be so silly as to believe in fairy stories. At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees. They all looked alike except as to size. They were green with scales, and they had four legs and a long tail and great wings like bats' wings, only the wings were a pale, half-transparent yellow, like the gear-boxes on bicycles.Based on the rising action in the bolded paragraphs, what do we know about Daddy?
