A cylindrically shaped space station is rotating about the axis of the cylinder to create artificial gravity. The radius of the

cylinder is 82.5 m. The moment of inertia of the station without people is 3.00 ???? 10 9 kg ???? m2. Suppose that 500 people, with an average mass of 70.0 kg each, live on this station. As they move radially from the outer surface of the cylinder toward the axis, the angular speed of the station changes. What is the maximum possible percentage change in the station’s angular speed due to the radial movement of the people?

Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum change happens when all 500 people moves form outer surface to the station center. When all of them are at the surface, the total moment of inertia is:

I = I_s + 500I_p = 3*10^9 + 500m_pr_p^2=3*10^9 + 500*70*82.5^2=3.24*10^9

When they are at the axis, the total moment of inertia is only the station's, which is 3*10^9

By the law of angular momentum conservation:

I_1\omega_1 = I_2\omega_2

\omega_2/\omega_1 = I_1/I_2 = \frac{3.24*10^9}{3*10^9} = 1.08

So the angular speed changes by 0.08 of itself, or 8%

Joe ate 1/3 of a pizza and jane ate 1/5 of the pizza. How much of the pizza was eaten
NikAS [45]

Answer:

7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

If we're seeing how much pizza they both ate, we would add them together.

\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}

Find the common denominator

\frac{5}{15}+ \frac{3}{15}

add

\frac{7}{15}

7/15 of the pizza was eaten

What are the coordinates of the vertex of the function below write your answer in the form y-9= -6(x-1)^2
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The co-ordinates of the vertex of the function y-9= -6(x-1)^2 is (1, 9)

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, equation is y-9=-6(x-1)^{2}

We have to find the vertex of the given equation.

When we observe the equation, it is a parabolic equation,

We know that, general form of a parabolic equation is  y-9=-6(x-1)^{2}

Where, h and k are x, y co ordinates of the vertex of the parabola.

\text { Now, parabola equation is } y-9=-6(x-1)^{2} \rightarrow y=-6(x-1)^{2}+9

By comparing the above equation with general form of the parabola, we can conclude that,

a = -6, h = 1 and k = 9

Hence, the vertex of the parabola is (1, 9).
