An ice skater is spinning at 6.00 rev/s with his moment of inertia being 0.400 kg/m2. Calculate his new moment of inertia if he

reduces his rate of spin to 1.25 rev/s by extending his arms and increasing his moment of inertia.

Answer:

New moment of inertia will be $I=1.92kgm^2$

Explanation:

It is given initially angular velocity $\omega =6rev/sec=6\times 2\pi =37.68rad/sec$

Moment of inertia $I=0.4kgm^2$

Angular momentum is equal to $L=I\omega =37.68\times 0.4=15.072kgm^2/sec$

Now angular velocity is decreases to $\omega =1.25rev/sec=1.25\times 2\times 3.14=7.85rad/sec$

As we know that angular momentum is conserved

So $15.072=I\times 7.85$

$I=1.92kgm^2$

So new moment of inertia will be $I=1.92kgm^2$

To analyze the motion of a body that is traveling along a curved path, to determine the body's acceleration, velocity, and posit

DiKsa [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the kinematic equations of linear motion and centripetal motion. For this purpose we will be guided by the definitions of centripetal acceleration to relate it to the tangential velocity. With these equations we will also relate the linear velocity for which we will find the points determined by the statement. Our values are given as

$R = 350ft$

$a_t = 1.1ft/s^2$

PART A )

$a_c = \frac{V^2}{R}$

$a_c = \frac{V^2}{350}$

Calculate the velocity of the motorcycle when the net acceleration of the motorcycle is $5.25ft/s^2$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$5.25 = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(\frac{v^2}{350})^2}$

$27.5625 = 1.21 + \frac{v^4}{122500}$

$v=42.3877ft/s$

Now calculate the angular velocity of the motorcycle

$v = r\omega$

$42.3877 = 350\omega$

$\omega = 0.1211rad/s$

Calculate the angular acceleration of the motorcycle

$a_t = r\alpha$

$1.1 = 350\alpha$

$\alpha = 3.1428*10^{-3}rad/s^2$

Calculate the time needed by the motorcycle to reach an acceleration of

$5.25ft/s^2$

$\omega = \alpha t$

$0.1211 = 3.1428*10^{-3}t$

$t = 38.53s$

PART B) Calculate the velocity of the motorcycle when the net acceleration of the motorcycle is $6.75ft/s^2$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$6.75 = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(\frac{v^2}{350})^2}$

$45.5625 = 1.21 + \frac{v^4}{122500}$

$v=48.2796ft/s$

PART C)

Calculate the radial acceleration of the motorcycle when the velocity of the motorcycle is $21.5ft/s$

$a_r = \frac{v^2}{R}$

$a_r = \frac{21.5^2}{350}$

$a_r =1.3207ft/s^2$

Calculate the net acceleration of the motorcycle when the velocity of the motorcycle is $21.5ft/s$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$a = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(1.3207)^2}$

$a = 1.7187ft/s^2$

PART D) Calculate the maximum constant speed of the motorcycle when the maximum acceleration of the motorcycle is $6.75ft/s^2$

$a = \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}$

$6.75 = \sqrt{(1.1)^2+(\frac{v^2}{350})^2}$

$45.5625 = 1.21 + \frac{v^4}{122500}$

$v=48.2796ft/s$

Describe how the ocean influences climate by storing heat and water? Give one example to justify your answer.

just olya [345]

The sun light that received by the water in the ocean will increase the average temperature of the water and make it warmer.
With the help of wind and current, the warm water will spread out to another region, and increasing the average temperature in that region and affecting its overall climate.
Example The temperature rise in Valdivia<span>, Chile and in Beijing, China after receiving warm water from arctic.</span>

A stone is dropped from the top a 45m hign building how fast will it moving when it reaches the ground? Ande what will its veloc

posledela

Answer:

29.7 m/s fast, velocity is 29.7 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v² = u²+2gs...................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = distance.

Given: u = 0 m/s (dropped from height), s = 45 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

v² = 0²+2×9.8×45

v² = 882

v = √(882)

v = 29.7 m/s.

Hence the stone will be moving 29.7 m/s fast and the velocity is also 29.7 m/s
