What does a negative moment of inertia mean?

Physics
1 answer:
nydimaria [60]3 years ago
8 0
When we are talking about simple Ixx or Iyyvalues, then yes these will always be positive. However, when talking about moment products like Ixy, these will not necessarily be positive, mainly when holes have been cut in these cross sections.

When the holes are cut in, those moments then become negative, and due to the parallel axis theorem sometimes these negative values actually become larger than the initial value, and the moment then becomes negative.

maksim [4K]

v

Convert the given temperatures from celsius to kelvin since we are dealing with gas.

To convert to kelvin, add 273.15 to the temperature in celsius.

T1 = 22 + 273.15 = 295.15 k

T2 = 4 + 273.15 = 277.15 k

V1 = 0.5 L

Let's find the final volume (V2).

To solve for V2 apply Charles Law formula below:

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

What connects the upper motor neurons to lower motor neurons?
skad [1K]

Answer:

The upper motor neurons synapse in the spinal cord connect with anterior horn cells of lower motor neurons, usually via interneurons. The anterior horn cells are the cell bodies of the lower motor neurons and are located in the grey matter of the spinal cord.

Explanation:

Interneurons are the central nodes of neural circuits, enabling communication between the upper motor neurons, sensory or motor neurons located in the brain and spinal cord and they send signals to lower motor neurons or central nervous system (CNS) in the brain stem and spinal cord . When they get a signal from the upper motor neurons, they send another signal to your muscles to make them contract. They play vital roles in reflexes, neuronal oscillations, and neurogenesis in the adult mammalian brain.

Renshaw cells are among the very first identified interneurons. They are excited by the axon collaterals of the motor neurons. In addition, Renshaw cells make inhibitory connections to several groups of motor neurons.

A mechanic changing the spark plugs in a car notes that the instruction manual calls for a torque with a magnitude of
Papessa [141]

The magnitude (in N) of the force she must exert on the wrench is 150.1 N.

<h3>Force exerted by the wrench</h3>

The force exerted by the wrench is calculated using torque formula as follows;

torque, τ = F x r x sinθ

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • r is the perpendicular distance if force applied

F =  τ /(r sinθ)

F = (39) / (0.3 sin 60)

F = 150.1 N

Thus, the magnitude (in N) of the force she must exert on the wrench is 150.1 N.
