A 397-N wheel comes off a moving truck and rolls without slipping along a highway. At the bottom of a hill it is rotating at 25.

0 rad/s. The radius of the wheel is 0.600 m, and its moment of inertia about its rotation axis is 0.800MR2. Friction does work on the wheel as it rolls up the hill to a stop, a height h above the bottom of the hill; this work has absolute value 2500 J. Calculate h in meters.

Answer:

h = 14.4 m

Explanation:

The height can be calculated by energy conservation:

K_{r} + K_{t} - W = E_{p}

<u>Where</u>:      

W: is the work

E_{p}: is the potential energy

K_{r}: is the rotational kinetic energy  

K_{t}: is the transitional kinetic energy

Initially, the wheel has rotational kinetic energy and translational kinetic energy, and then when stops it has potential energy.  

K_{r} + K_{t} - W = E_{p}

\frac{1}{2}I\omega_{0}^{2} + \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} - W = mgh

<u>Where</u>:                                            

I: is the moment of inertia = 0.800 mr²

ω₀: is the angular speed = 25.0 rad/s

m: is the mass = P/g = 397 N/9.81 m*s⁻² = 40.5 kg

v: is the tangential speed = ω₀r²            

Now, by solving the above equation for h we have:                        

h = \frac{\frac{1}{2}(I\omega_{0}^{2} + mv^{2}) - W}{mg}  

h = \frac{\frac{1}{2}(I\omega_{0}^{2} + m(\omega_{0}*r)^{2}) - W}{mg}

h = \frac{\frac{1}{2}(0.800*40.5 kg*(0.600 m)^{2}*(25.0 rad/s)^{2} + 40.5 kg*(25.0 rad/s*0.600 m)^{2}) - 2500 J}{40.5 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}} = 14.4 m

Therefore, the height is 14.4 m.

I hope it helps you!

On a sunny summer day, why does a white car with a light-colored interior stay cooler than a black car with a dark-colored inter
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: Solar radiation reflects off the lighter colours, away from the car, thus keeping the car cool

Explanation: This is because lighter colors reflect a good amount of radiation while darker colors absorb it. Just like, Antarctica hasn't completely melted because it reflects a lot of the heat that is acting upon it. Or, you notice that you get hotter when you wear a black shirt opposed to a white one.

To lower the voltage from a "120 V" outlet, what is used (first, at least) in most situations
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

B. Transformer

Explanation:

A transformer is a device that is used to either raise or lower voltages and currents in an electrical circuit. In modern electrical distribution systems, transformers are used to boost voltage levels so as to decrease line losses during transmission. It basically trades voltage for current in a circuit, while not affecting the total electrical power. This means it takes high-voltage electricity with a small current and changes it into low-voltage electricity with a large current, or vice versa.

A 0.50 kg toy is attached to the end of a 1.0 m very light string. The toy is whirled in a horizontal circular path on a frictio
xenn [34]

Answer:

The maximum speed will be 26.475 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the toy m = 0.50 kg

radius of the light string r = 1 m

Tension on the string T = 350 N

We have to find the maximum speed without breaking the string  

For without breaking the string tension must be equal to the centripetal force

So T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

So 350=\frac{0.5\times v^2}{1}

v^2=700

v = 26.475 m /sec

So the maximum speed will be 26.475 m/sec

If an unknown element has a mass of 17 and contains 6 neutrons, how many protons does it have ?
lbvjy [14]

The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons within an atom and since we know that the unknown element has 6 neutrons, we can simply subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number to get the number of protons.

17 - 6 = 11

There are 11 protons in this unknown element.


Extra:

The number of protons (+) and electrons (-) are equal in a neutral atom so since you know that there are 11 protons you also know that there are 11 electrons. On the periodic table, the element with 11 electrons is Na or Sodium.


Hope this helps! :)
