The outstretched hands and arms of a figure skater preparing for a spin can be considered a slender rod pivoting about an axis t

hrough its center. When his hands and arms are brought in and wrapped around his body to execute the spin, the hands and arms can be considered a thin-walled hollow cylinder. His hands and arms have a combined mass of 9.0 kg. When outstretched, they span 1.7 m; when wrapped, they form a cylinder of radius 26 cm. The moment of inertia about the rotation axis of the remainder of his body is constant and equal to 0.40 kg * m2. If his original angular speed is 0.30 rev/s, what is his final angular speed?

Answer:

W_f =4.7968 rad/s

Explanation:

By the law of the conservation of the angular momentum L:

L_i = L_f

Where:

L_i=I_iW_i

L_f=I_fW_f

where I_i is the inicial moment of inertia, W_i is the initial angular velocity,  I_f is the final moment of inertia and W_f is the final angular velocity.

Replacing:

I_iW_i = I_fW_f

Now, we have to change the angular velocity from revolutions to radians as:

W_i=0.3*2\pi rad/s

W_i=1.884 rad/s

Then, we find the initial moment of inertia (I_i) as:

I_i = \frac{1}{12}(M)(R_1)^2+0.4

I_i = \frac{1}{12}(9 kg)(1.7m)^2+0.4

I_i = 2.5675 kg*m^2

Where M is the mass of his hands and arms and R1 is the length of his arms and hands whe they are outstretched.

Now we find the final moment of inertia (I_f) as:

I_f = MR_2^2+0.4

I_f = (9)(0.26)^2+0.4

I_ f = 1.0084 kg*m^2

Where R2 is the radius of the cylinder formed.

Finally we replace all in the first equation as:

I_iW_i = I_fW_f

(2.5675)(1.884) = (1.0084)W_f

Solving for W_f, we get:

W_f =4.7968 rad/s

A sealed test tube traps 25.0 cm3 of air at a pressure of 1.00 atm and temperature of 18°C. The test tube’s stopper has a diamet
puteri [66]

Answer:

180° C

Explanation:

First we start by finding the area of the stopper.

A = πd²/4, where d = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

A = 3.142 * 0.015² * ¼

A = 1.767*10^-4 m²

Next we find the force on the stopper

F = (P - P•)A, where

F = 10 N

P = pressure inside the tube,

P• = 1 atm

10 = (P - 101325) * 1.767*10^-4

P - 101325 = 10/1.767*10^-4

P - 101325 = 56593

P = 56593 + 101325

P = 157918 Pascal

Now, remember, in an ideal gas,

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, where V is constant, then we have

P1/T1 = P2/T2, and when we substitute the values, we have

101325/(273 + 18) = 157918/ T2

101325/291 = 157918/ T2

T2 = (157918 * 291)/101325

T2 = 453 K

T2 = 453 - 273 = 180° C

Two boats - Boat A and Boat B - are anchored a distance of 24 meters apart. The incoming water waves force the boats to oscillat
ozzi

Answer:

wavelength = 24 m

Period = 10 s

f = 0.1 Hz

Amplitude = 4 m

Explanation:

Wavelength:

Since the boats are at crest and trough, respectively at the same time. Hence, the horizontal distance between them is the wavelength of the wave:

<u>wavelength = 24 m</u>  

Period:

The period is given as:

Period = \frac{time}{no.\ of\ cycles} \\\\Period = \frac{10\ s}{1}\\\\

<u>Period = 10 s</u>

<u></u>

Frequency:

The frequency is given as:

f = \frac{1}{time\ period}\\\\f = \frac{1}{10\ s}\\\\

<u>f = 0.1 Hz</u>

<u></u>

Amplitude:

Amplitude will be half the distance between extreme points, that is, crest and trough:

Amplitude = 8 m/2

<u>Amplitude = 4 m</u>
