Complete Question:

If an object in translational equilibrium is also in rotational equilibrium about a given rotational axis the object will be in rotational equilibrium about any other axis. True or false

Answer:

True

Explanation:

An object is in translational equilibrium when the sum of all the external forces acting on it equals zero. $\sum F = 0$

Such an object is also experiencing zero overall acceleration. Therefore, it is either not moving or moving at a constant velocity

An object is in rotational equilibrium when the sum of all the external torques acting on it equals zero. $\sum T = 0$

Such an object either will not be moving or moving at a constant angular velocity. This means the object is experiencing zero angular acceleration

If an object in translational equilibrium is also in rotational equilibrium about a given rotational axis the object will be in rotational equilibrium about any other axis

Answer: True

Explanation:

The object will be in rotational equilibrium about any other axis

Therefore, it is either not moving or moving at a constant velocity. Similarly to translational equilibrium, an object is in rotational equilibrium when the sum of all the external torques acting on it equals zero. In rotational equilibrium, an object either will not be moving or moving at a constant angular velocity.

A 68.2 kg base runner begins his slide into second base while moving at a speed of 4.33 m/s. He slides so that his speed is zero

qwelly [4]

Answer:

$147.653J = W_f$

Explanation:

We know that:

$E_i - E_f = W_f$

where $E_i$ is the initial energy, $E_f$ is the final energy and $W_f$ is the energy lost due to friction.

so:

$\frac{1}{2}MV^2-0 = W_f$

Where M is the mass and V is the velocity of the runner, so:

$\frac{1}{2}(68.2kg)(4.33m/s)^2 = W_f$

$147.653J = W_f$

A penny is placed on a rotating turntable. Where on the turntable does the penny require the largest centripetal force to remain

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

m = mass of the penny

r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation

w = angular speed of rotation of turntable

F = centripetal force experienced by the penny

centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as

F = m r w²

in the above equation , mass of penny "m" and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .

hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.

So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.
