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).

A 150-newton force, applied to a wooden crate at an angle of 30° above the horizontal, causesthe crate to travel at constant vel
omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A component of 150 N in vertical direction will reduce the magnitude of reaction force.

reaction force exerted by the floor

= mg - 150 sin 30

where m is mass of the crate .

the magnitude of the horizontal component of the 150-newton force

150 cos30

= 130 N

This force tries to pull the crate in forward direction with acceleration but it has no acceleration . It is so because frictional force of equal magnitude acts on it in opposite direction which makes the net force acting on it equal to zero.

Hence frictional force is equal to 150 cos 30.

= 130 N .

Neptune is approximately 4.5 billion kilometers from the sun. What is this distance in AU?
asambeis [7]
Well, one AU is 149,597,870 km. So, we would basically have to divide 4.5 billion km by 149,597,870, right?

4,500,000,000/149,597,870=30.080642 AU.

So, the correct answer would be 30 AU. Hoped this helped!

Describe what happens to chromosomes before mitosis.
Brums [2.3K]

Explanation:

Before mitosis, the chromosomes are copied. They then coil up, and each chromosome looks like a letter X in the nucleus of the cell. The chromosomes now consist of two sister chromatids. Mitosis separates these chromatids, so that each new cell has a copy of every chromosome
