The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A merry-go-round rotates at the rate of 0.14 rev/s with an 84 kg man standing at a point 2.4 m from the axis of rotation. What is the new angular speed when the man walks to a point 0.6 m from the center? Assume that the merry-go-round is a solid 25-kg cylinder of radius 2.0 m.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Initial angular velocity (\omega_{1}) = 0.14 rev/s

        \omega_{1} = (0.14 \times 2 \pi) rad/s

                        = 0.87 rad/s

Mass of man (M) = 84 kg,     Mass of cylinder (m) = 25 kg

Radius of the cylinder (r) = 2.4 m

Let r_{1} be the initial distance of man from the axis of rotation = 2.0 m

Final distance of man from the axis of rotation (r_{2}) = 0.6 m

Formula to calculate the moment of inertia of cylinder is as follows.

        I = \frac{Mr^{2}}{2}  

And, moment of inertia of man = mr^{2}

Therefore, initial moment of inertia of the system is as follows.

      I_{1} = \frac{Mr^{2}}{2} + mr^{2}_{1}

                = \frac{84 \times (2.4 m)^{2}}{2} + 25 \times (2)^{2}

                = 241.92 + 100

                = 341.92 kg m^{2}

Now, final moment of inertia of the system will be calculated as follows.

           I_{2} = \frac{Mr^{2}}{2} + mr^{2}_{2}

                     = \frac{84 \times (2.4)^{2}}{2} + 25 \times (0.6)^{2}

                     = 241.92 + 9

                     = 250.92

Now, according to the law of conservation of angular momentum is as follows.

      Initial angular momentum = Final angular momentum

             I_{1} \omega_{1} = I_{2} \omega_{2}

or,   \omega_{2} = \frac{I_{1}\omega_{1}}{I_{2}}

                     = \frac{341.92 \times 0.87}{250.92}

                     = 1.18 rad/s

Thus, we can conclude that the new angular speed is 1.18 rad/s.

Answer:

The general shape of a frequency distribution. For many data sets, statisticians use this information to determine whether there is a “normal” distribution of values. In normal distributions, the mean, median, and mode are the same. Whether the distribution is symmetrical or skewed in a certain direction. If the data is skewed to the right, this shows the mean will be greater than the median. Similarly, if the data is skewed left, the mean will be less than the median. The symmetry, or asymmetry, of the chart can help statisticians calculate probability. The modality of the data set. This means how many peaks exist in the data. For normal distributions, there will be one peak, or mode, in the data set.

Answer:

Decreases/Reduces

Explanation:

Fill in the blank:

Consider the equation Work = Force X Distance.

<em>If a machine  increases the distance over which a force is exerted, the force </em>

<em>required to do a given amount of work</em> .........

If the work is a constant value, then by isolating force from the equation, we get:

Force = Work / Distance

By increasing the value of the Distance, then the quotient Work. Distance diminishes, and therefore the required force decreases (diminishes, reduces)

Answer: Decreases/Reduces

Which best summarizes a concept related to the work-energy theorem?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

When work is positive, the environment does work on an object.

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the net work done by the forces on a body or an object is equal to the change produced in the kinetic energy of the body or an object.

The concept that summarizes a concept related to the work-energy theorem is that ''When work is positive, the environment does work on an object.''

A block of mass m = 150 kg rests against a spring with a spring constant of k = 880 N/m on an inclined plane which makes an angl
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

b)  k Δx - W cos θ - μ mg cos θ = m a ,  c)  θ = 86.6º, d)  Δx = 1.18 m

Explanation:

a) In the attachment we can see a diagram of the forces in this problem and the coordinate axes for its decomposition.

F is the force applied by the spring, while it is compressed, this force disappears when the block leaves the spring

b) Let's apply Newton's second law for when the spring is compressed

let's use trigonometry to break down the weight

            sin θ = Wₓ / W

            cos θ = W_y / W

             Wₓ = W sin θ

             W_y = W cos θ

Y axis  

               N - W_y = 0

               N = W_y

               N = W cos θ

X axis

           F -Wₓ -fr = ma

the force applied by the spring is given by hooke's law

           F = k Δx

friction force has the expression

           fr = μ N

           fr = μ W cos θ

we substitute

            k Δx - W cos θ - μ mg cos θ = m a           ( 1)

c) If the plane has no friction, what is the angle so that Δx = 0.1m

             

We write the equation 1, with fr = 0 and since the system is still a = 0

            k Δx - W cos θ -0 = 0

            cos θ = \frac{k \Delta x}{ m g}

            cos θ = \frac{880 \ 0.1}{ 150 \ 9.8}

            cos θ = 0.0598

            θ = cos⁻¹ 0.0598

            θ = 86.6º

d) In this part they give the angle θ = 45º and there is no friction, they ask the compression

the acceleration is zero, we substitute in 1

            k Δx - W cos θ - 0 = 0

            Δx = \frac{mg \ cos \  \theta}{k}

            Δx = \frac{ 150 \ 9.8 \ cos45}{880}

            Δx = 1.18 m
