Identical particles are placed at the 50-cm and 80-cm marks on a meter stick of negligible mass. This rigid body is then mounted
kogti [31]

Answer:

5.35 rad/s

Explanation:

From the question, we are toldthat an Identical particles are placed at the 50-cm and 80-cm marks on a meter stick of negligible mass. This rigid body is then mounted so as to rotate freely about a pivot at the 0-cm mark on the meter stick.

Solving this question, the potential energy of the particles must equal to the Kinectic energy i.e

P.E=K.E

Mgh= m½Iω²-------------eqn(*)

Where M= mass of the particles

g= acceleration due to gravity= 9.81m/s^2

ω= angular speed =?

h= height of the particles in the stick on the metre stick= ( 50cm + 80cm)= (0.5m + 0.8m)= 130cm=1.3m

If we substitute the values into eqn(*) we have

m×9.81× (1.3m)= 1/2× m×[ (0.5m)² + [(0.8m)²]× ω²

m(12.74m²/s²)= 1/2× m× (0.25+0.64)× ω

m(12.74m²/s²)= 1/2× m× 0.89× ω²

We can cancel out "m"

12.74= 1/2×0.89 × ω²

12.74×2= 0.89ω²

25.48= 0.89ω²

ω²= 28.629

ω= √28.629

ω=5.35 rad/s

Hence, the angular speed of the meter stick as it swings through its lowest position is 5.35 rad/s

The screwdriver used by an electrician has a plastic or rubber covers on them why
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Plastic or rubber are regarded as an insulator, and an insulator does not allow the flow of electric current through them, so the handles of screwdrivers as well as pliers that electricians use in repairing is been covered with plastic or rubber so that electric current is prevented to pass through it to the body of electricians to avoid been electrocuted as well as shock.
