The throttle is the name of the device that regulates the amount of fuel going into the engine of a personal watercraft (PWC). The throttle make the PWCs maneuverable. TO MAINTAIN STEERAGE, YOU MUST APPLY THROTTLE! They are built for quick, sharp turns, low-radius circling, and rapid acceleration

Which is true about a concave mirror? Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are dispersed but will be perceived as

Reil [10]

Answer:

'Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are sent through a point on the near side of the mirror'.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, find the complete question in the comment section.

Concave mirrors is an example of a curved mirror. The outer surface of a concave mirror is always coated. On the concave mirror, we have what is called the central axis or principal axis which is a line cutting through the center of the mirror. The points located on this axis are the Pole, the principal focus and the centre of curvature. The focus point is close to the curved mirror than the centre of curvature.

During the formation of images, one of the incident rays (rays striking the plane surface) coming from the object and parallel to the principal axis, converges at the focus point after reflection because all incident rays striking the surface are meant to reflect out. All incident light striking the surface all converges at a point on the central axis known as the focus.

Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that 'Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are sent through a point on the near side of the mirror'.

A circular disc of mass 20kg and radius 15cm is mounted in an horizontal cylindrical axle of radius

disa [49]

Using the concepts of energy, rotational Newton's second law and rotational kinematics we can find the kinematic energy of the system formed by the disk and the cylindrical axis

KE = 0.23 J

given parameters

Disk radius R = 15 cm = 0.15 m
Cylinder radius r = 1.5 cm = 0.0015 m
Disk mass M = 20 kg
Time t = 1.2 s
Force F = 12 N

to find

Kinetic energy (KE)

This exercise must be solved in parts:

1st part. Endowment kinetic energy is the energy due to the circular motion of an object and is described by the equation

KE = ½ I w²

Where KE is the kinetic energy, I the moment of inertia and w the angular velocity

The moment of inertia is a magnitude that measures the inertia for rotational movement, it is a scalar quantity, therefore it is additive. In this system it is composed of two bodies, the disk and the cylindrical axis, for which the total moment of inertia it is

I_{ total} = I_{ disk} + I_{ cylinder}

the moments of inertia with respect to an axis passing through the center of mass are tabulated

disk I_{disk} = ½ M R²

cylinder I_{cylinder} = ½ m r²

where M and m are the masses of the disk and cylinder respectively, R and r their radii

I_{total} = ½ (M R² + m r²) = ½ M R² ( $1 + \frac{m}{M} \ (\frac{r}{R})^2$ )
