A record is dropped vertically onto a freely rotating (undriven) turntable. Frictional forces act to bring the record and turnta

ble to a common angular speed. If the rotational inertia of the record is 0.54 times that of the turntable, what percentage of the initial kinetic energy is lost?

Answer:

35%

Explanation:

Assuming no external torques present during the collision between the record and the turntable, total angular momentum must be conserved.

For a rotating body with some angular velocity and moment of inertia, the angular momentum can be expressed as follows;

L = I* ω

So, as initial angular momentum and final angular momentum must be the same, we have:

Li = Lf

⇒ I₁ * ω₁ = I₂ * ω₂ (1)

where I₁ is the rotational inertia of the turntable, and I₂, is the combined rotational inertia of the turntable and the record:

I₂ = I₁ + 0.54 I₁ = 1.54 I₁

We can solve (1) for the new common angular speed, as follows:

ω₂ = ω₁ / 1.54 (2)

The initial rotational kinetic energy is given by definition for the following equation:

Kroti = 1/2 * I₁ * ω₁² (3)

The final rotational kinetic  energy takes into account the new rotational inertia and the common final angular speed:

Krotf = 1/2* I₂ * ω₂² = 1/2* 1.54 I₁* (ω₁/1.54)² (4)

Dividing both sides in (3) and (4), we get:

Krotf/Kroti = 1/1.54 = 0.65

This means that the final rotational kinetic energy, has reduced to 0.65 of the initial value, or that has lost 35% of the initial kinetic energy.

Why do you need to breath faster at the top of a mountain
Dovator [93]
Because of the higher elevation. As much as we go away from earth by increasing altitude, there will occur lacoccuren. due to this, we need to breathe fast to get suffient oxygen by time at top of the mountain. We breathe faster at the top of a tall mountain due to a natural reflex. As we go higher up a mountain, the density of air and oxygen decreases, i.e. the amount of oxygen in the air decreases along with other gases. Therefore, to maintain the regular supply of oxygen, the body breathes faster. If we go too high without oxygen tanks, we could fall unconscious and die within 8 minutes due to oxygen deprivation.

Hope this helps! let me know if you need anything else!!

A weather balloon is filled to a volume of 6000 L while it is on the ground, at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 273 K.
avanturin [10]

Answer : The final volume of the balloon at this temperature and pressure is, 17582.4 L

Solution :

Using combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 0.3 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 6000 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 273 K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 240 K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

\frac{1atm\times 6000L}{273K}=\frac{0.3atm\times V_2}{240K}

V_2=17582.4L

Therefore, the final volume of the balloon at this temperature and pressure is, 17582.4 L
