Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that is 100 kg, has a 1.60-m radius, and is spinning at 20.0 rpm. The

children have masses of 22.0, 28.0, and 33.0 kg. If the child who has a mass of 28.0 kg moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new angular velocity in rpm?

Answer:

25.33 rpm

Explanation:

M = 100 kg

m1 = 22 kg

m2 = 28 kg

m3 = 33 kg

r = 1.60 m

f = 20 rpm

Let the new angular speed in rpm is f'.

According to the law of conservation of angular momentum, when no external torque is applied, then the angular momentum of the system remains constant.

Initial angular momentum = final angular momentum

(1/2 x M x r^2 + m1 x r^2 + m2 x r^2 + m3 x r^2) x ω =

                                  (1/2 x M x r^2 + m1 x r^2 + m3 x r^2 ) x ω'

(1/2 M + m1 + m2 + m3) x 2 x π x f = (1/2 M + m1 + m3) x 2 x π x f'

( 1/2 x 100 + 22 + 28 + 33) x 20 = (1/2 x 100 + 22 + 33) x f'

2660 = 105 x f'

f' = 25.33 rpm

Consider an oil droplet of mass m and charge q. We want to determine the charge on the droplet in a Millikan-type experiment. We
Katen [24]

Answer:

q=\frac{mg}{E_o}              

Explanation:

Given:

Charge = <em>q</em>

Electric field strength =E_o

weight of the droplet = <em>mg</em>

The charge is suspended motionless. This is because the electric force on the charge is balanced by the weight of the droplet.

electric force on charged droplet, F=qE_o

This is balanced by the weight, mg

Equating the two:

qE_o=mg\\\Rightarrow q=\frac{mg}{E_o}

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

L= 12 light years

Explanation:

for length dilation we use the formula

L=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} }

now calculating Lo

Lo = 12.5×365×24×3600×3×10^8

= 1.183×10^17 m

now putting the values of v and Lo in the above equation we get

L=1.183\times10^{17}\sqrt{1-\frac{0.28c^2}{c^2} }

= 1.136×10^17 m

L=  = \frac{1.136\times10^{17}}{365\times24\times3600\times3\times10^8}m

so L= 12 light years
