A disk rotates freely on a vertical axis with an angular velocity of 30 rpm. An identical disk rotates above it in the same dire

ction about the same axis, but without touching the lower disk, at 20 rpm. The upper disk then drops onto the lower disk. After a short time, because of friction, they rotate together. The final angular velocity of the disks is
A. 50 rpm
B. 40 rpm
C. 25 rpm
D. 20 rpm
E. 10 rpm

Answer:

c. 25 rpm

Explanation:

The inertia of both disk is the same so

I_1=I_2

I_1*w_{1i}+I_2*w_{2i}=I_1*w_{1f}+I_2*w_{2f}

I*(w_{1i}+w_{2i})=I*(w_{1f}+w_{2f})

w_{1f}=w_{2f}=w_f

w_{1f}+w_{2f}=2w_f

w_f=\frac{w_{1i}+w_{i2}}{2}

w_f=\frac{30rpm+20rpm}{2}

w_f=\frac{50rpm}{2}

w_f=25rpm

What is the SI unit for intensity?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The SI unit of intensity is the watt per square meter/metre (W/m^2.)

Explanation:

Intensity is equal to the power transferred per unit area. Since power is measured in watts (W) and 1 W = 1 J/s, then intensity can be viewed as how fast energy goes through a certain area.

In physics, intensity is often used when studying light, sound, or other phenomena that involve waves or energy transfer. (With waves, the power value is taken as the average power transfer over the wave's period.)

A bag containing 0ºC ice is much more effective in absorbing energy than one containing the same amount of 0ºC water.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

Explanation:

Energy is required to melt a solid because the cohesive bonds between the molecules in the solid must be broken apart such that, in the liquid, the molecules can move around at comparable kinetic energies; thus, there is no rise in temperature. Similarly, energy is needed to vaporize a liquid, because molecules in a liquid interact with each other via attractive forces. There is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. The temperature of a cup of soda initially at 0ºC stays at 0ºC until all the ice has melted. Conversely, energy is released during freezing and condensation, usually in the form of thermal energy. Work is done by cohesive forces when molecules are brought together. The corresponding energy must be given off (dissipated) to allow them to stay together Figure 2.

The energy involved in a phase change depends on two major factors: the number and strength of bonds or force pairs. The number of bonds is proportional to the number of molecules and thus to the mass of the sample. The strength of forces depends on the type of molecules. The heat Q required to change the phase of a sample of mass m is given by

Q = mLf (melting/freezing,

Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation),

where the latent heat of fusion, Lf, and latent heat of vaporization, Lv, are material constants that are determined experimentally.

A small lab cart and one of larger mass collide and rebound off each other. Which of them has the greater average force on it du
Elza [17]

When a small cart collide with a large mass then during collision they must be in contact with each other for some interval of time

During this contact interval we can say they will exert normal force on each other

This normal force is always equal and opposite on two balls which means this force will follow Newton's III law

It will be same in magnitude but opposite in the direction

So here correct answer would be

<u><em>They both experience the same magnitude of the collision force.</em></u>

What affect does a tripling of the net force have upon the acceleration of the object ? Be quantitative
vovikov84 [41]
The formula of net Force is:
F = ma
where m is the mass of the object
a is the acceleration of the object

so if we triple the net force applied to the object:
3F = ma
a = 3F / m

so the acceleration will also be tripled. because from the equation, the force is directly proportional to the acceleration
