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

Rufina [12.5K]
For the answer to the question above, 
 the distance from i to j is 5 parts 
(2 parts from i to k and 3 parts from k to j) 

The y distance from i to j is 
10 - 2 = 8 

Each part is 8/5 = 1.6 
Therefore the distance between the 2 parts from i to k is 3.2 

From the y coordinate of I which is 2 plus the 3.2 to point k 
2 + 3.2 = 5.2 

Answer y =5.2 

Now just convert that to fraction and that will be the answer

You have seen magnets sticking to the refrigerator door, or maybe in your science class room. They attract metal items, for exam
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

B) shrinks

Explanation:

The magnetic force is a force exerted between two magnets, or two magnetic materials, or also on an electric charge moving in a magnetic field.

If we talk about magnetic material, the magnetic field they generates can be represented using a dipole: essentially, they have a north pole (where the lines of the field go out) and a south pole (where the lines of the field go in).

Also, the lines spread apart as we move away from the magnet itself. This means that the strength of the field (and so, the intensity of the force) decreases as we move away from the magnet.

Using this description, we can now understand that when we move the paper clip further from the magnet, the force exerted on the clip decreases, as the magnetic field becomes weaker. So, the correct answer is B.

If the current through a 20-Ω resistor is 8.0 A , how much energy is dissipated by the resistor in 1.0 h ? Express your answer w
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

P(3600)=593.247W

Explanation:

First, let's find the voltage through the resistor using ohm's law:

V=IR=20*8=160V

AC power as function of time can be calculated as:

P(t)= V*I*cos(\phi)-V*I*cos(2 \omega t-\phi)  (1)

Where:

\phi=Phase\hspace{3}angle\\\omega= Angular\hspace{3}frequency

Because of the problem doesn't give us additional information, let's assume:

\phi=0\\\omega=2 \pi f=2*\pi *(60)=120\pi

Evaluating the equation (1) in t=3600 (Because 1h equal to 3600s):

P(3600)=160*8*cos(0)-160*8*cos(2*120\pi*3600-0)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*cos(2714336.053)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*0.5365255751\\P(3600)=1280-686.7527361=593.2472639\approx=593.247W
