In a playground, there is a small merry-go-round of radius 1.20 m and mass 160 kg. Its radius of gyration is 91.0 cm. (Radius of

gyration k is defined by the expression I=Mk2.) A child of mass 44.0 kg runs at a speed of 3.00 m/s along a path that is tangent to the rim of the initially stationary merry-go-round and then jumps on. Neglect friction between the bearings and the shaft of the merry-go-round. Calculate

Answer:

a) 145.6kgm^2

b) 158.4kg-m^2/s

c) 0.76rads/s

Explanation:

Complete qestion: a) the rotational inertia of the merry-go-round about its axis of rotation

(b) the magnitude of the angular momentum of the child, while running, about the axis of rotation of the merry-go-round and

(c) the angular speed of the merry-go-round and child after the child has jumped on.

a) From I = MK^2

I = (160Kg)(0.91m)^2

I = 145.6kgm^2

b) The magnitude of the angular momentum is given by:

L= r × p The raduis and momentum are perpendicular.

L = r × mc

L = (1.20m)(44.0kg)(3.0m/s)

L = 158.4kg-m^2/s

c) The total moment of inertia comprises of the merry- go - round and the child. the angular speed is given by:

L = Iw

158.4kgm^2/s = [145kgm^2 + ( 44.0kg)(1.20)^2]

w = 158.6/208.96

w = 0.76rad/s

A supersonic jet, with a mass of 21,000 kg, departs from its home airbase with a velocity of 400 m/s due east. What is the jet’s

disa [49]

Answer:

Momentum P is 840000kgm/s or 8.4 × 10^6

Explanation:

Data :

Mass = 21000 kg

Velocity = 400 m/s

So momentum is given as

P = mv

P = 21000×400

P = 8400000 kgm/s

P = 8.4 × 10^6

___ devices need constant power to operate. The timing functions are initiated by the presence or absence of a separate ""trigge

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Solid-state

Explanation:

A solid-state device can be defined as a crystalline material that is typically made up of semiconductor and as such controls the number and rate of flow of charged carriers such as holes or electrons.

Some examples of a solid-state device are light emitting diodes (LED), integrated circuit (IC), Transistors, liquid crystal display (LCD) etc.

A solid-state device such as a transistor, refers to a semiconductor component that is used to control the flow of voltage or current and as a gate (switch) for electronic signals. Thus, a transistor allows for the amplification, control and generation of electronic signals in a circuit.

Hence, solid-state devices need constant power to operate. The timing functions are initiated by the presence or absence of a separate "trigger" signal.

Basically, these solid-state devices use the optical and electrical properties of semiconductor components such as transistors, triacs, thyristors, diodes to perform its input-output switching and isolation functions.

What force must the deltoid muscle provide to keep the arm in this position?

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Deltoid Force, $F_{d} = \frac {r_{a}mgsin\alpha_{a}}{r_{d}sin\alpha_{d}}$

Additional Information:

Some numerical information are missing from the question. However, I will derive the formula to calculate the force of the deltoid muscle. All you need to do is insert the necessary information and calculate.

Explanation:

The deltoid muscle is the one keeping the hand arm in position. We have two torques that apply to the rotating of the arm.

1. The torque about the point in the shoulder for the deltoid muscle, $T_{Deltoid}$

2. The torque of the arm, $T_{arm}$

Assuming the arm is just being stretched and there is no rotation going on,

$T_{Deltoid}$ = 0

$T_{arm}$ = 0

⇒ $T_{Deltoid} = T_{arm}$

$r_{d}F_{d}sin\alpha_{d} = r_{a}F_{a}sin\alpha_{a}$

Where,

$r_{d}$ is radius of the deltoid

$F_{d}$ is the force of the deltiod

$\alpha_{d}$ is the angle of the deltiod

$r_{a}$ is the radius of the arm

$F_{a}$ is the force of the arm , $F_{a} = mg$ which is the mass of the arm and acceleration due to gravity

$\alpha_{a}$ is the angle of the arm

The force of the deltoid muscle is,

$F_{d} = \frac {r_{a}F_{a}sin\alpha_{a}}{r_{d}sin\alpha_{d}}$

but $F_{a} = mg$ ,

∴ $F_{d} = \frac {r_{a}mgsin\alpha_{a}}{r_{d}sin\alpha_{d}}$
