A record is dropped vertically onto a freely rotating (undriven) turntable. Frictional forces act to bring the record and turnta
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The loss of initial Kinetic energy = 37.88 %

Explanation:

Given:

Rotational inertia of the turntable = I_t

Rotational inertia (I_r) of the record = 0.61\times I_t

According to the question:

<em>Frictional forces act to bring the record and turntable to a common angular speed.</em>

So,angular momentum will be conserved as it is an inelastic collision.

Considering the initial and final angular velocity of the turn table as  \omega _i\  ,\  \omega_f respectively.

Note :

Angular momentum (L) = Product of moment of inertia  (I)  and angular velocity (\omega) .  

Lets say,

⇒ initial angular momentum = final angular momentum

⇒  L_i=L_f

⇒ (I_t)\times \omega_i = (I_t+I_r)\times \omega_f

⇒ \omega _f=\frac{I_t}{I_t+I_r} \times (\omega_i) ...equation (i)

Now we will find the ratio of the Kinetic energies.

⇒ K_i=\frac{I_t\times \omega_i^2}{2}       ⇒ K_f=\frac{(I_r+I_t)\times \omega_f^2}{2}

Their ratios:

⇒ \frac{K_f}{K_i} =\frac{\frac{(I_t+I_r)\times \omega_f^2}{2} }{\frac{I_t\times \omega_i^2}{2} }    

⇒ \frac{K_f}{K_i} = {\frac{(I_t+I_r)\times \omega_f^2}{2} } \times {\frac{2}{I_t\times \omega_i^2}}

Plugging the values of  \omega _f^2 as \omega _f^2 =(\frac{I_t}{I_t+I_r} \times \omega_i\ )^2 from equation (i) in the ratios of the Kinetic energies.

⇒ \frac{K_f}{K_i} =\frac{(I_t+I_r)\times \frac{(I_t)^2}{(I_t+I_r)^2} \times \omega_i^2}{I_t\times \omega_i^2} =\frac{(I_t)^2}{(I_t+I_r)}\times \frac{1}{I_t}=\frac{I_t}{I_t+I_r}

Now,

The Kinetic energy lost in fraction can be written as:

⇒ \frac{K_f-K_i}{K_i}

Now re-arranging the terms.

\frac{K_f-K_i}{K_i}  =(\frac{K_f}{K_i} -1)= \frac{I_t}{I_t+I_r} -1=\frac{I_t-I_t-I_r}{I_t+I_r} =\frac{-I_r}{(I_t+I_r)}

Plugging the values of  I_r and I_t .

⇒ \frac{K_f}{K_i} = \frac{-0.61I_t}{0.61I_t+I_t} =\frac{-0.61}{1.61} =-0.3788

To find the percentage we have to multiply it with 100 and here negative means for loss of Kinetic energy.

⇒ \frac{K_f}{K_i} = =-0.3788\times 100= 37.88

So the percentage of the initial Kinetic energy lost is 37.88

QUESTION: A pure jet engine propels and aircraft at 340 m/s through air at 45 kPa and -13C. The inlet diameter of this engine is 1.6 m, the compressor pressure ratio is 13, and the temperature at the turbine inlet is 557C. Determine the velocity at the exit of this engines nozzle and the thrust produced.

ANSWER: Due to the propulsion from the inlet diameter of this engine bring 1.6 m allows the compressor rations to radiate allowing thrust propultion above all velocitic rebisomes.

Without completing the calculations, determine what the new volume will be in the problem below. Also, explain how you were able
Talja [164]
Boyles law

Pressure and volume are inversely proportional as the new variable changes from the known.

Double the pressure equals 1/2 of original volume, assuming temperature remains the same.

So 40.0 mL is the new volume as it is compressed.
