A spherical shell is rolling without slipping at constant speed on a level floor. What percentage of the shell's total kinetic e
IgorC [24]

Answer:

41.667 per cent of the total kinetic energy is translational kinetic energy.

Explanation:

As the spherical shell is rolling without slipping at constant speed, the system can be considered as conservative due to the absence of non-conservative forces (i.e. drag, friction) and energy equation can be expressed only by the Principle of Energy Conservation, whose total energy is equal to the sum of rotational and translational kinetic energies. That is to say:

E = K_{t} + K_{r}

Where:

E - Total energy, measured in joules.

K_{r} - Rotational kinetic energy, measured in joules.

K_{t} - Translational kinetic energy, measured in joules.

The spherical shell can be considered as a rigid body, since there is no information of any deformation due to the motion. Then, rotational and translational components of kinetic energy are described by the following equations:

Rotational kinetic energy

K_{r} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot I_{g}\cdot \omega^{2}

Translational kinetic energy

K_{t} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2}

Where:

I_{g} - Moment of inertia of the spherical shell with respect to its center of mass, measured in kg\cdot m^{2}.

\omega - Angular speed of the spherical shell, measured in radians per second.

R - Radius of the spherical shell, measured in meters.

After replacing each component and simplifying algebraically, the total energy of the spherical shell is equal to:

E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (I_{g} + m\cdot R^{2})\cdot \omega^{2}

In addition, the moment of inertia of a spherical shell is equal to:

I_{g} = \frac{2}{3}\cdot m\cdot R^{2}

Then, total energy is reduced to this expression:

E = \frac{5}{6}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2}

The fraction of the total kinetic energy that is translational in percentage is given by the following expression:

\%K_{t} = \frac{K_{t}}{E}\times 100\,\%

\%K_{t} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} }{\frac{5}{6}\cdot m \cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} } \times 100\,\%

\%K_{t} = \frac{5}{12}\times 100\,\%

\%K_{t} = 41.667\,\%

41.667 per cent of the total kinetic energy is translational kinetic energy.

If a person pulls back a rubber band on a slingshot without letting to go of it, what type of energy will the rubber band have?
Travka [436]

Answer:

Potential energy. Releasing it, the potential energy would convert into motion, kinetic energy.

Potential energy is when an object has some sort of potential eg. for motion such as in this example.
