Answer:

Her angular momentum does not change.

Explanation:

Conservation of angular momentum: It states that there is no change in the angular momentum when no torque outside the system is applied to the body.

In the given problem, an ice skater spins her arm outstretched. She pulls her arms in towards her body.

The angular momentum of an ice skaters remains same as the there is no external torque applied on an ice skater. The initial angular momentum  and the final angular momentum of the given system are same. Therefore, the angular momentum is conserved.

Therefore, her angular momentum does not change.

storchak [24]

Answer:

v = 12.52 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the energy conservation theorem. Which tells us that potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy or vice versa. This is more clearly as the potential energy decreases the kinetic energy increases.

Ep = Ek

where:

Ep = potential energy [J] (units of joules]

Ek = kinetic energy [J]

Ep = m*g*h

where:

m = mass of the rock = 45 [g] = 0.045 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = (20 - 12) = 8 [m]

Ek = 0.5*m*v²

where:

v = velocity [m/s]

The reference level of potential energy is taken as the ground level, at this level the potential energy is zero, i.e. all potential energy has been transformed into kinetic energy. In such a way that when the Rock has fallen 12 [m] it is located 8 [m] from the ground level.

m*g*h = 0.5*m*v²

v² = (g*h)/0.5

v = √(9.81*8)/0.5

v = 12.52 [m/s]

A 200g air-track glider is attached to a spring. The glider is pushed in 10cm and released. A student with a stopwatch finds tha
cricket20 [7]

The spring constant will be k= 5.5N/m for a 200g air track glider attached to a spring.

<h3>What is spring constant?</h3>

The spring constant, k, is a measure of the stiffness of the spring. It is different for different springs and materials.

Calculation for What is the spring constant

First step is to calculate the time period

T = 12 second/10

T = 1.2 second

Now let calculate the spring constant using this formula

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}

Where,

m=0.2kg

T=1.2second

k represent spring constant=?

Let plug in the formula

k=\dfrac{4 \pi \times 0.2}{(1.2)^2}

k=\dfrac{39.48\times 0.2}{1.44}

k=\dfrac{7.90}{1.44}

k=5.48 N/m

k=5.5 N/m ( Approximately)

Therefore the spring constant will be 5.5 N/m

Juan amd kym have four samples of matter. They are observing and describing the properties of these samples. Which property will
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:

--> if the substance has a definite shape,

-->if the substance has a definite volume

--> if it's tightly packed.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.

Matter can exist in the following states:

--> Solid state

--> liquid state or

--> Gaseous state.

The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:

--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.

--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.

--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.

From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.
