A thin rod of length 1.4 m and mass 140 g is suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one side and then allowed to swing l
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a The kinetic energy is  KE = 0.0543 J

b The height of the center of mass above that position is  h = 1.372 \ m    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The length of the rod is  L = 1.4m

   The mass of the rod m = 140 = \frac{140}{1000} = 0.140 \ kg  

   The angular speed at the lowest point is w = 1.09 \ rad/s

Generally moment of inertia of the rod about an axis that passes through its one end is

                   I = \frac{mL^2}{3}  

Substituting values

               I = \frac{(0.140) (1.4)^2}{3}

               I = 0.0915 \ kg \cdot m^2

Generally the  kinetic energy rod is mathematically represented as

             KE = \frac{1}{2} Iw^2

                    KE = \frac{1}{2} (0.0915) (1.09)^2

                           KE = 0.0543 J

From the law of conservation of energy

The kinetic energy of the rod during motion =  The potential energy of the rod at the highest point

   Therefore

                   KE = PE = mgh

                        0.0543 = mgh

                             h = \frac{0.0543}{9.8 * 0.140}

                                h = 1.372 \ m

What is the smallest radius of an unbanked (flat) track around which a bicyclist can travel if her speed is 22 km/h and the coef
Aleks [24]
First, let's put 22 km/h in m/s:

22 \frac{km}{h} \times  \frac{1000m}{1km}  \times  \frac{1h}{3600s}=6.11 \frac{m}{s}

Now the radial force required to keep an object of mass m, moving in circular motion around a radius R, is given by

F_{rad}=m \frac{v^2}{R}

The force of friction is given by the normal force (here, just the weight, mg) times the static coefficient of friction:

F_{fric}= mg \mu_{s}

Notice we don't use the kinetic coefficient even though the bike is moving.  This is because when the tires meet the road they are momentarily stationary with the road surface.  Otherwise the bike is skidding.

Now set these equal, since friction is the only thing providing the ability to accelerate (turn) without skidding off the road in a line tangent to the curve:

m\frac{v^2}{R} = mg \mu_{s} \\ \\ \frac{v^2}{R} = g \mu_{s} \\ \\R= \frac{v^2}{g \mu_{s}} \\ \\ R= \frac{6.11}{9.8 \times 0.37}=1.685m
