A firm wants to determine the amount of frictional torque in their current line of grindstones, so they can redesign them to be

more energy efficient. To do this, they ask you to test the best-selling model, which is basically a diskshaped grindstone of mass 2.0 kg and radius 9.90 cm which operates at 720 rev/min. When the power is shut off, you time the grindstone and find it takes 41.9 s for it to stop rotating.
(a) What is the angular acceleration of the grindstone in rad/s^2? (b) What is the frictional torque exerted on the grindstone in N·m?

Answer:

a)- 1.799 rad/sec²

b)- 17.6 x 10ˉ³Nm

Explanation:

ω₀ = 720 rev/min x (1 min/60 sec) x (2π rad / 1 rev) =  24π rad/s

a) Assuming a constant angular acceleration, the formula will be

α = (ωf -ω₀) / t

As final state of the grindstone is at rest, so ωf =0

⇒ α = (0-24π) / 41.9 = - 1.799 rad/sec²

b)Moment of inertia I for a disk about its central axis

I = ½mr²  

where m=2kg and radius 'r'= 0.099m

I = ½(2)(0.099²)

I = 9.8 x 10ˉ³ kgm²

Next is to determine the frictional torque exerted on the grindstone, that caused it to stop, applying the rotational equivalent of the Newton's 2nd law:

τ = I α =>(9.8 x 10ˉ³)(- 1.799)

τ = - 17.6 x 10ˉ³Nm

(The negative sign indicates that the frictional torque opposes to the rotation of  the grindstone).

If a car that is moving 20.0 m/s has a momentum of 29000 kg·m/s, what mass is the car?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Mass = 1450kg

Explanation:

P = M * V (where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity)

29000 = 20 * M

M = 29000 / 20

M= 1450 kg

How to understand that an inductor behaves like short circuit and capacitor like an open circuit in steady state in a network?
garik1379 [7]
It depends on the steady-state frequency. At zero frequency an inductor behaves like an open circuit. As the frequency increases, the inductor acts more like an open circuit and a capacitator acts more like a short circuit

What type of circuit is it please give with explanation !!!!
Archy [21]
The circuit is a parallel circuit.

Because even one light bulb is broken, the others are still lit. Therefore it is not a series circuit

The magnet below is cut in half. what will be the result?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

This is what we call a permanent magnet. By the  way, the magnetic phenomena were first observed about 2500 years ago near the ancient city of Magnesia, what is today Manisa, located in western Turkey, when people saw fragments of magnetized iron. So what happens if you cut a magnet in half? Well, a magnet has two ends, the first one is called a north pole or N pole while the  other end is a south pole or S pole, so if you break a bar magnet, each piece  has a north and south pole, no matter the size of each new bar although the smaller the  piece, the weaker its magnetism. This is true because unlike electric charges, you always find magnetic poles  in pairs, that is, ¡they can't be isolated! The option is C. because in the great bar the north pole is to the left while the south pole is to right.
