The angular momentum of earth is

7×10^33 kgm^2/sec

Given:

mass of earth = 5.98×1024 kg

radius of earth = 6.38×10^6 m

To Find:

angular momentum

Solution:

For earth we have moment of inertia as

I = 2/5mR^2

and angular velocity as ω = 2π/T

Thus angular momentum is given as

L= 2/5mR^2*2π/T

L = 2/5*5.98×10^24*(6.38×10^6)^2*2*3.14/86400s

L = 7 × 10^33 kg/m^2/sec

So, angular momentum of earth is

So, angular momentum of earth is 7×10^33 kgm^2/sec

The horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of a projectile are 50 m/s and 120 m/s respectively. What is the
katrin [286]

Answer:

<em>50 m/s</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

In a projectile motion, acceleration is only on the vertical plane, that is, the vertical velocity is the only velocity component that undergoes acceleration under gravitational force. The horizontal component of velocity dos not change with time, and hence is the same as the initial velocity of the projectile.

What happens to water in the atmosphere as it rises?
Lunna [17]
The correct answer is that water, as it rises in the atmosphere, condenses and forms clouds - the correct answer is b.

Other options are false, for example:
a. It evaporates.
-this is the beginning of the process: water needs to evaporate to be in the atmosphere - so it's before the process that the question addresses

Also it is not used up: otherwise Earth would run out of water.

Jumping up before the elevator hits. After the cable snaps and the safety system fails, an elevator cab free-falls from a height
noname [10]

Answer:

a)   I = 2279.5 N s , b) F = 3.80 10⁵ N, c)   I = 3125.5 N s  and d)  F = 5.21 10⁵ N

Explanation:

The impulse is equal to the variation in the amount of movement.

    I =∫ F dt = Δp

     I = mv_{f} - m v₀

Let's calculate the final speed using kinematics, as the cable breaks the initial speed is zero

   v_{f}² = V₀² - 2g y

   v_{f}² = 0 - 2 9.8 30.0

   v_{f} = √588

   v_{f} = 24.25 m/s

a) We calculate the impulse

   I = 94 24.25 - 0

   I = 2279.5 N s

b) Let's join the other expression of the impulse to calculate the average force

   I = F t

  F = I / t

  F = 2279.5 / 6 10⁻³

  F = 3.80 10⁵ N

just before the crash the passenger jumps up with v = 8 m / s, let's take the moments of interest just when the elevator arrives with a speed of 24.25m/s down and as an end point the jump up to vf = 8 m / n

c)     I = m v_{f} - m v₀

       I = 94 8 - 94 (-24.25)

       I = 3125.5 N s

d)     F = I / t

       F = 3125.5 / 6 10⁻³

       F = 5.21 10⁵ N

Steel wire rope is used to lift a heavy object. We use a 3.1m steel wire that
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Young's modulus for the rope material is 20.8 MPa.    

 

Explanation:

The Young's modulus is given by:

E = \frac{FL_{0}}{A\Delta L}

Where:

F: is the force applied on the wire

L₀: is the initial length of the wire = 3.1 m

A: is the cross-section area of the wire

ΔL: is the change in the length = 0.17 m

The cross-section area of the wire is given by the area of a circle:

A = \pi r^{2} = \pi (\frac{0.006 m}{2})^{2} = 2.83 \cdot 10^{-5} m^{2}

Now we need to find the force applied on the wire. Since the wire is lifting an object, the force is equal to the tension of the wire as follows:

F = T_{w} = W_{o}

Where:

T_{w}: is the tension of the wire

W_{o}: is the weigh of the object = mg

m: is the mass of the object = 1700 kg

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F = mg = 1700 kg*9.81 m/s^{2} = 16677 N

Hence, the Young's modulus is:

E = \frac{16677 N*0.006 m}{2.83 \cdot 10^{-5} m^{2}*0.17 m} = 20.8 MPa          

Therefore, Young's modulus for the rope material is 20.8 MPa.                

I hope it helps you!
