Answer:

a) The resulting angular speed of platform is 1.38 rev/sec

b) The change in kinetic energy of the system is 53 J.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The complete question will be:

You stand on a frictional platform that is rotating at 1.1 rev/s. Your arms are outstretched, and you hold a heavy weight in each hand. The moment of inertia of you, the extended weights, and the platform is 8.8 kg · m2. When you pull the weights in toward your body, the moment of inertia decreases to  7.0 k g .m 2  

a) What is the resulting angular speed of the platform? Answer in units of r e v / s .

b)What is the change in kinetic energy of the system? Answer in units of J.

<h3>ANSWER:</h3>

a)

we know that:

Angular Momentum = L = Iω

From conservation of momentum:

Lo = Lf

(Io) (ωo) = (If) (ωf)

ωf = (Io) (ωo)/(If)

ωf = (8.8 kg.m²)(1.1 rev/s)/(7.0 kg.m²)

<u>ωf = 1.38 rev/sec =</u>

b)

ωf = (1.38 rev/sec)(2π rad/ 1 rev) = 8.67 rad/sec

ωo = (1.1 rev/sec)(2π rad/ 1 rev) = 6.91 rad/sec

The kinetic energy for rotational motion is given as:

K.E = (1/2)Iω²

Thus, the change in kinetic energy will be:

ΔK.E = (K.E)f - (K.E)o

ΔK.E = (1/2)Ifωf² - (1/2)Ioωo²

ΔK.E = (1/2)(Ifωf² - Ioωo²)

ΔK.E = (1/2)[(7 kg.m²)(8.67 rad/sec)² - (8.8 kg.m²)(6.91 rad/sec)²

<u>ΔK.E = 53 J</u>

You are writing a report about space travel. Where would be the best place to find information? (2 points)
Harrizon [31]

Answer: Contact the National Aeronautics and Space Association

Explanation:

The National Aeronautics and Space Association is an independent organization in US which aims to enable a safe, secure, efficient space journey and launch of new satellites, spacecraft beyond the earth's orbit. It can give better information for the space travel already conducted by the astronauts. Thus will help in writing the report as it is the best place to find the information.

The sun’s energy is most useful to humans after it is converted to _____.
Trava [24]
The sun’s energy is most useful to humans after it is converted to chemical energy. Living organisms like humans and animals could not directly utilize the energy from the sun because of lack in organs that would allow photosynthesis. Humans and animals obtain the energy from the sun from the intake of food. These foods contain chemical energy which is obtained from the solar energy of the sun. Plants use solar energy for photosynthesis which converts the energy into chemical energy. Then, animals and humans eat the plants obtaining the chemical energy which can readily processed by the body as compared to solar energy.

Describe asexual reproduction
Brrunno [24]
“Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single organism, and inherit the genes of that parent only; it does not involve the fusion of gametes, and almost never changes the number of chromosomes.” -Wikipedia

What change will always result in an increase in gravitational force between two objects
tekilochka [14]

The gravitational force between two object depends on their masses and on their distance.


Since the formula is


F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}


If the masses grow, the force also grows. But I'm assuming the two objects are fixed, so you can't enlarge their mass.


So, the only option remaining is to lower their distance: since it sits at the denominator, a smaller value of d results in a bigger value for F.


So, if you reduce the distance between two objects, the gravitational force between them will always result in an increase
