Answer:

 w = 2w₀     the angular velocity of man doubles

Explanation:

In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia

       I= I₀ / 2

Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved

         L₀ = L

       I₀ w₀ = I w

       I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w

       w = 2w₀

therefore the angular velocity of man doubles

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Q = 913.9 gpm

Explanation:

The Hazen Williams equation can be written as follows:

P = \frac{4.52\ Q^{1.85}}{C^{1.85}d^{4.87}}

where,

P = Friction Loss per foot of pipe = \frac{0.4}{1000\ ft} = 4 x 10⁻⁴

Q = Flow Rate in gallon/min (gpm) = ?

d = pipe diameter in inches = (400 mm)(0.0393701 in/1 mm) = 15.75 in

C = roughness coefficient = 100

Therefore,

4\ x \ 10^{-4} = \frac{4.52\ Q^{1.85}}{(100)^{1.85}(15.75)^{4.87}}\\\\Q^{1.85} = \frac{4\ x \ 10^{-4}}{1.33\ x\ 10^{-9}} \\\\Q = (300384.75)^\frac{1}{1.85}

<u>Q = 913.9 gpm</u>

A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000 km. Sup
Tema [17]

Answer:

a) v = 19,149.6 m/s

b) f = 95%

c) t = 346.5min

Explanation:

First put all values in metric units:

15.8 min*\frac{60s}{1min}=948s

The equation of motion you need is:

v_f = a*t+v_0

where v_f is the final velocity, a is acceleration and t is time in hours.

Since the spaceship starts from 0 velocity:

v_f = a*t = 20.2*948 = 19,149.6 m/s

Next, you need to calculate the distances traveled on each interval, considering that both starting and final intervals travel the same distance because the acceleration and time are equal. For this part you need the next motion equation:

x=\frac{v_0+v_f}{2}t

solving for first and last interval:

Since the spaceship starts and finish with 0 velocity:

x=\frac{v}{2}t=\frac{19,149.6}{2}948=9,076,910.4m=9,076.9104km

Then the ship traveled 384,000-9,076.9104*2 = 361,846.1792km at constant speed, which means that it traveled:

f_{constant_speed} =\frac{ x_{constant_speed}}{x_total} =\frac{361,846.1792}{380,000} =0.95

Which in percentage is 95% of the trip.

to calculate total time you need to calculate the time used during constant speed:

t = \frac{361,846,179.2}{19,149.6} = 18,895.75s = 314min

That added to the other interval times:

t_{total} = t_1+t_2+t_3=15.8+314.93+15.8=346.5min

In an electric motor _____energy is transformed into_____energy?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

In an electric motor the electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy. Almost every mechanical movement that we see around us is accomplished by an electric motor. Electric machines are a means of converting energy. Motors take electrical energy and produce mechanical energy.
