As an intern with an engineering firm, you are asked to measure the moment of inertia of a large wheel, for rotation about an ax

is through its center. Since you were a good physics student, you know what to do. You measure the diameter of the wheel to be 0.88 m and find that it weighs 280 N . You mount the wheel, using frictionless bearings, on a horizontal axis through the wheel's center. You wrap a light rope around the wheel and hang a 6.32 kg mass from the free end of the rope. You release the mass from rest; the mass descends and the wheel turns as the rope unwinds. You find that the mass has speed 4.0 m/s after it has descended 2.5 m .(a) What is the moment of inertia of the wheel for an axis perpendicular to the wheel at its center?

Answer:

I=2.766\ kg.m^2

Explanation:

We have:

diameter of the wheel, d=0.88\ m

weight of the wheel, w_w=280\ N

mass of hanging object to the wheel, m_o=6.32\ kg

speed of the hanging mass after the descend, v_o=4\ m.s^{-1}

height of descend, h=2.5\ m

(a)

moment of inertia of wheel about its central axis:

I=\frac{1}{2} m.r^2

I=\frac{1}{2} \frac{w_w}{g}.r^2

I=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{280}{9.8}\times 0.44^2

I=2.766\ kg.m^2

What is 1113.28 in a sig fig?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

6 significant figure

Explanation:

The digits 111328 all are 6 figures with no figure being zero, neither zero after the other digits. In this case, all the numbers are significant and since they are only six numbers, then this is a six significant figure. In case we add another zero after digit 8, the zero is not significant but if added either infront of 8 or 2, the zero becomes significant.

A box is held at rest by two ropes that form 30° angles with the vertical. The tension T in either rope is 42 N. What is the wei
iragen [17]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 73 N

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Using the formula

2 T cos(30°) = w

Where; T is the tension on each string, while w is the weight of the box given by mg

Therefore;

W = 2Tcos 30°

    = 2 × 42 cos 30°

    = 84 cos 30°

    = 72.74

<u>   ≈ 73 N</u>

A person throws a ball straight up. He releases the ball at a height of 1.75 m above the ground and with a velocity of 12.0 m/s.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

a) 1.22 s

b) 9.089 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-12}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=1.22\ s

Time taken by the ball to reach the highest point is 1.22 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=12\times 1.22+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.81\times 1.22^2\\\Rightarrow s=7.339\ m

The maximum height the ball will reach above the ground is 1.75+7.339 = 9.089 m
