A 15kg penguin slips on a wet rock (rip I hope he's okay). The coefficient of friction between the penguin and the rock is .250.

What frictional force impedes the penguins motion? I NEED THE EQUATION AND THE SOLUTION PLEASE

That poor penguin :( so frictional force = coefficient*normal force. 15*9.8=147=normal force so 147*0.25=36.75=frictional force. And I'm pretty sure you would use the static coefficient as the question doesn't say the the penguin is already slipping, he slips (assuming he has just taken a step).

A potter's wheel has the shape of a solid uniform disk of mass 7 kg and radius 0.65 m. It spins about an axis perpendicular to t
ozzi

Answer:

1.832 kgm^2

Explanation:

mass of potter's wheel, M = 7 kg

radius of wheel, R = 0.65 m

mass of clay, m = 2.1 kg

distance of clay from centre, r = 0.41 m

Moment of inertia = Moment of inertia of disc + moment f inertia of the clay

I = 1/2 MR^2 + mr^2

I = 0.5 x 7 x 0.65 x 0.65 + 2.1 x 0.41 x 0.41

I = 1.47875 + 0.353

I = 1.832 kgm^2

Thus, the moment of inertia is 1.832 kgm^2.
