Answer:

Explanation:

s = ut+ 0.5at²

u = 0

t = 6

a = 9.81

s = 0 + 0.5 * 9.81 * 36 = 176.58 m

v = u + at

v = 9.81* 36 = 353 m/s

Answer:

<em>A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases. </em>

Explanation:

The complete question is

A merry-go-round spins freely when Diego moves quickly to the center along a radius of the  merry-go-round. As he does this, It is true to say that

A) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed increases.

B) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed decreases.

C) the moment of inertia of the system decreases and the angular speed remains the same.

D) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed increases.

E) the moment of inertia of the system increases and the angular speed decreases

In angular momentum conservation, the initial angular momentum of the system is conserved, and is equal to the final angular momentum of the system. The equation of this angular momentum conservation is given as

I_{1} w_{1} = I_{2} w_{2}    ....1

where I_{1} and I_{2} are the initial and final moment of inertia respectively.

and w_{1} and w_{2} are the initial and final angular speed respectively.

Also, we know that the moment of inertia of a rotating body is given as

I = mr^{2}    ....2

where m is the mass of the rotating body,

and r is the radius of the rotating body from its center.

We can see from equation 2 that decreasing the radius of rotation of the body will decrease the moment of inertia of the body.

From equation 1, we see that in order for the angular momentum to be conserved, the decrease from I_{1} to I_{2} will cause the angular speed of the system to increase from w_{1} to w_{2} .

From this we can clearly see that reducing the radius of rotation will decrease the moment of inertia, and increase the angular speed.

Assume that the driver begins to brake the car when the distance to the wall is d=107m, and take the car's mass as m-1400kg, its
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Let let the frictional force needed be F

Work done by frictional force = kinetic energy of car

F x 107 = 1/2 x 1400 x 35²

F = 8014 N

b )

maximum possible static friction

= μ mg

where μ is coefficient of static friction

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

c )

work done by friction for μ = .4

= .4 x 1400 x 9.8 x 107

= 587216 J

Initial Kinetic energy

= .5 x 1400 x 35 x 35

= 857500 J

Kinetic energy at the at of collision

= 857500 - 587216

= 270284 J

So , if v be the velocity at the time of collision

1/2 mv² = 270284

v = 19.65 m /s

d ) centripetal force required

= mv₀² / d which will be provided by frictional force

= (1400 x 35 x 35) / 107

= 16028 N

Maximum frictional force possible

= μmg

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

So this is not possible.

Evaluate A car company wants to build a wind-powered car that converts 100 percent of the mechanical energy in the wind to the m
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

There's one or two reasons, depending on what is meant by "wind-powered car".

The first reason is that it's impossible for any transfer of energy to be 100% efficient.  There will always be frictional losses.

Secondly, if the company means that they want to attach a wind turbine to the car so that the car is powered by the same wind that it generates, that violates the conservation of energy.
