Nearly all conventional piston engines have flywheels on them to smooth out engine vibrations caused by the thrust of individual

piston firings. Why does the flywheel have this effect
Physics
1 answer:
Artyom0805 [142]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

This is because, the flywheel has a very large moment of Inertia and hence sudden piston torques have negligible effect on the flywheel, but every piston combined has a significant torque. This smoothens out the vibrations.

A 1.5m wire carries a 6 A current when a potential difference of 61 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
Alisiya [41]

Resistance = (voltage) / (current)

For this piece of wire . . .

Resistance = (61 volts) / (6 Amperes)

Resistance = (61/6) (V/A)

<em>Resistance = (10 and 1/6) ohms</em>

Since you know the voltage and current, the length doesn't matter.

State keplers law........​
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

There are actually three, Kepler's laws that is, of planetary motion: 1) every planet's orbit is an ellipse with the Sun at a focus; 2) a line joining the Sun and a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times; and 3) the square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its

A skater of mass 40 kg is carrying a box of mass 5 kg. The skater has a speed of 5 m/s with respect to the floor and is gliding
Yuki888 [10]

For the part a) we need only the momentum of the box and we have the data to find it.

Momentum is given by,

p=mv

where clearly, p is the momentum, m the mass of the box and v is the velocity.

Substituting,

p=(5kg)(5m/s)\\p=25kg.m/s

For part b) we need an analysis of the situation. We understand that the box on a surface that has no friction will continue to rotate at the same speed previously defined. The box can only stop with friction, so,

p=(5kg)(5m/s)\\p=25kg.m/s

<em>It is the same that part a)</em>
