A rod of very small diameter with a mass 2m and length 3L is placed along the xaxis with one end at the origin. An identical rod

is placed along the yaxis with one end at the origin, so that the two rods form an L-shape. What are the coordinates of the center of mass for these two rods

Answer:

coordinates of the center of mass for these two rods

( $x_{cm}$ , $y_{cm}$ )= ( $\frac{3L}{4}$ , $\frac{3L}{4}$ )cm

Explanation:

given

mass of a rod = 2m

length of the rod = 3L

mass of two rods = 2(2m) = 4m

radius = diameter/2 = $\frac{3L}{2}$

attached is the diagram and solution to the question

1) A thin ring made of uniformly charged insulating material has total charge Q and radius R. The ring is positioned along the x

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

(A) considering the charge "q" evenly distributed, applying the technique of charge integration for finite charges, you obtain the expression for the potential along any point in the Z-axis:

$V(z)=\frac{Q}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) \sqrt{R^{2} +z^{2}} }$

With $(\epsilon_{0})$ been the vacuum permittivity

(B) The expression for the magnitude of the E(z) electric field along the Z-axis is:

$E(z)=\frac{QZ}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) (R^{2} +z^{2})^{\frac{3}{2} } }$

Explanation:

(A) Considering a uniform linear density $λ_{0}$ on the ring, then:

$dQ=\lambda dl$ (1)⇒ $Q=\lambda_{0} 2\pi R$ (2)⇒ $\lambda_{0}=\frac{Q}{2\pi R}$ (3)

Applying the technique of charge integration for finite charges:

$V(z)= 4\pi (ε_{0})\int\limits^a_b {\frac{1}{ r' }} \, dQ$ (4)

Been r' the distance between the charge and the observation point and a, b limits of integration of the charge. In this case a=2π and b=0.

Using cylindrical coordinates, the distance between a point of the Z-axis and a point of a ring with R radius is:

$r'=\sqrt{R^{2} +Z^{2}}$ (5)

Using the expressions (1),(4) and (5) you obtain:

$V(z)= 4\pi (\epsilon_{0})\int\limits^a_b {\frac{\lambda_{0}R}{ \sqrt{R^{2} +Z^{2}} }} \, d\phi$

Integrating results:

$V(z)=\frac{Q}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) \sqrt{R^{2} +z^{2}} }$ (S_a)

(B) For the expression of the magnitude of the field E(z), is important to remember:

$|E| =-\nabla V$ (6)

But in this case you only work in the z variable, soo the expression (6) can be rewritten as:

$|E| =-\frac{dV(z)}{dz}$ (7)

Using expression (7) and (S_a), you get the expression of the magnitude of the field E(z):

$E(z)=\frac{QZ}{4\pi (\epsilon_{0}) (R^{2} +z^{2})^{\frac{3}{2} } }$ (S_b)

A certain alarm clock ticks four times each second, with each tick representing half a period. The balance wheel consists of a t

Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. $I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2$

b. $K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m$

Explanation:

The inertia can be find using

a.

$I = m*r^2$

$m = 0.95 g * \frac{1 kg}{1000g}=9.5x10^{-4} kg$

$r=0.54 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} =5.4x10^{-3}m$

$I = 9.5x10^{-4}kg*(5.4x10^{-3}m)^2$

$I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2$

now to find the torsion constant can use knowing the period of the balance

b.

T=0.5 s

$T=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}$

Solve to K'

$K = \frac{4\pi^2* I}{T^2}=\frac{4\pi^2*2.7702 kg*m^2}{(0.5s)^2}$

$K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m$
