Two ice skaters hold hands and rotate, making one revolution in 2.87 s. Their masses are 59.0 kg and 73.0 kg, and they are separ

ated by 1.10 m. Find the angular momentum of the system about their center of mass. If the skaters pull towards each other and decrease their separation to 0.60 m, what is the new period of rotation about the center of mass?

Answer:

86.43

25.72

Explanation:

Location of center of mass from 59 Kg

r_1=\frac {xm_2}{m1+m2}=\frac {1.1*73}{59+73}= 0.608333m

Location of center of mass from 73 Kg

r_2=\frac {xm_1}{m1+m2}=\ frac {1.1*59}{59+73}= 0.491667m

Momentum of inertia

I=m1r_1^{2}+m2r_2^{2}=59*0.608333^{2}+73*0.491667^{2}=21.8341  +17.64674=39.48083  Kgm^{2}

Angular moment

L=I\omega=I(\frac {2\pi}{T})=39.48083(\frac {2*\pi}{2.87 s})=86.43393Js

(b)

When separation is 0.6 m

Location of centre of mass from 59 Kg

r_1=\frac {xm_2}{m1+m2}=\frac {0.6*73}{59+73}= 0.331818 m

Location of centre of mass from 73 Kg

r_2=\frac {xm_1}{m1+m2}=\ frac {0.6*59}{59+73}= 0.268182 m

Momentum of intertia

I=m1r_1^{2}+m2r_2^{2}=59*0.331818^{2}+73*0.268182^{2}=6.496095 + 5.250269=11.74636 Kgm^{2}

Angular moment

L=I\omega=I(\frac {2\pi}{T})=11.74636(\frac {2*\pi}{2.87 s})=25.71588 Js

A plane travels 1743 KM in 2 hours 30 minutes. How fast was the plane traveling?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

v=697.2km/h

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the velocity is computed via the division of the distance traveled by the elapsed time:

V=\frac{d}{t}

The distance is clearly 1743 km and the time is:

t=2h+30min*\frac{1h}{60min} =2.5h

Thus, the velocity turns out:

v=\frac{1743km}{2.5h}\\ \\v=697.2km/h

Which is a typical velocity for a plane to allow it be stable when flying.

Best regards.

Photograph E shows a rechargeable torch. When a student shakes the torch, the magnet moves through the coil and back again. This
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

a) according to Faraday's law , b) creating a faster movement, placing more turns on coil

Explanation:

a) The voltage is induced in the coil by the relative movement between it and the magnet, therefore according to Faraday's law

           E = - d (B A) / dt

In this case, the magnet is involved, so the value of the magnetic field varies with time, since the number of lines that pass through the loop changes with movement.

This voltage creates a current that charges the battery

b) There are several ways to increase the voltage

* creating a faster movement, can be done by the user

* placing more turns on the coil, must be done by the manufacturer
