5 0

If the net force acting on a moving object causes no change in its velocity, the object's momentum will stay the same.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum of a body in motion refers to the tendency of a body to maintain its inertial motion.

The momentum is the product of its mass and velocity.

This suggests that if the net force acting on a moving object causes no change in its velocity, the momentum of the object will remain the same.

Therefore, if the net force acting on a moving object causes no change in its velocity, the object's momentum will stay the same.

Estimate the moment of inertia of a bicycle wheel 66 cm in diameter. The rim and tire have a combined mass of 1.2 Kg

Fed [463]

<span>For a point mass the moment of inertia is just the mass times the square of perpendicular distance to the rotation axis, I = mr^2. That point mass relationship becomes the basis for all other moments of inertia since any object can be built up from a collection of point masses. So the I = (1.2 kg)(0.66m/2)^2 = 0.1307 kg m2</span>

Question 3 (5 points)

Elan Coil [88]

True: when there is an angle between force and displacement, $W=Fd cos \theta$

Explanation:

The work done by a force when pushing/pulling an object is given by the equation

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

We have two extreme cases:

- When the force is parallel to the displacement, then $\theta=0^{\circ}$ and $cos \theta = 1$ , so the work done is maximum and simply becomes

$W=Fd$

- When the force is perpendicular to the displacement, then $\theta=90^{\circ}$ and $cos \theta =0$ , so the work done is zero.

You read in a science magazine that on the Moon, the speed of a shell leaving the barrel of a modern tank is enough to put the s

olga_2 [115]

To solve this problem we will use the definition of the kinematic equations of centrifugal motion, using the constants of the gravitational acceleration of the moon and the radius of this star.

Centrifugal acceleration is determined by

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}$
