Answer:

r = 20 m

Explanation:

The formula for the angular momentum of a rotating body is given as:

L = mvr

where,

L = Angular Momentum = 10000 kgm²/s

m = mass

v = speed = 2 m/s

r = radius of merry-go-round

Therefore,

10000 kg.m²/s = mr(2 m/s)

m r = (10000 kg.m²/s)/(2 m/s)

m r = 5000 kg.m   ------------- equation 1

Now, the moment of inertia of a solid uniform disc about its axis through its center is given as:

I = (1/2) m r²

where,

I = moment of inertia = 50000 kg.m²

Therefore,

50000 kg.m² = (1/2)(m r)(r)

using equation 1, we get:

50000 kg.m² = (1/2)(5000 kg.m)(r)

(50000 kg.m²)/(2500 kg.m) = r

<u>r = 20 m</u>

A square boat made from iron has overall dimensions of 2.00 cm x 11.0 cm x 11.0 cm. It has a mass of 213 g. What is its density?
kupik [55]

<u>Answer:</u> The density of boat is 0.88g/cm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of boat, we use the equation:

V=lbh

where,

V = volume of boat

l = length of boat = 2.00 cm

b = breadth of boat = 11.0 cm

h = height of boat = 11.0 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=2.00\times 11.0\times 11.0=242cm^3

  • To calculate density of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of a substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of a substance}}{\text{Volume of a substance}}

We are given:

Mass of boat = 213 g

Volume of boat = 242cm^3

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Density of boat}=\frac{213g}{242cm^3}\\\\\text{Density of boat}=0.88g/cm^3

Hence, the density of boat is 0.88g/cm^3

Assume earth is approximately a uniform, solid sphere that has a mass of 5.98×1024 kg and a radius of 6.38×106 m. calculate the
PSYCHO15rus [73]

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
