A 20-kg child starts at the center of a playground merry-go-round that has a radius of 1.5 mm and rotational inertia of 500kg⋅m2

and walks out to the edge. The merry-go-round has a rotational speed of 0.20 s−1 when she is at the center.
What is its rotational speed when she gets to the edge?

Answer:

w = 0.189 rad/ s

Explanation:

This exercise we work with the conservation of the moment, the system is made up of the merry-go-round and the child, for which we write the moment of two instants

Initial

         L₀ = I₀ w₀

Final

          L_{f} = I w

         L₀ = L_{f}

         I₀ w₀ = I_{f} w

         .w = I₀/I_{f}   w₀

The initial moment of inertia is

        I₀ = 500 kg. m2

The final moment of inertia

         I_{f} = 500 + m r²

         I_{f} = 500 + 20 1.5

         I_{f} = 530 kg m²

Initial angular velocity

         w₀ = 0.20 rad / s

Let's calculate

          w = 500/530 0.20

          w = 0.189 rad / s

A police car parked on the side of the highway emits a 1200 Hz sound that bounces off a vehicle farther down the highway and ret
emmasim [6.3K]

f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz

f = frequency emitted by the police car  = 1200 Hz

V = speed of sound = 340 m/s

v = speed of vehicle = ?

frequency observed by the police car is given as

f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)

inserting the values in the above equation

1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)

v = 6.9 m/s

By quadrupling the mass of the body hanging on the thread what will become the period of oscillation?​
nikklg [1K]

Well, the tension in the thread will probably quadruple, but the hanging body will continue to just hang there.  

The question gives us no evidence that it is doing any oscillating, and there's no reason for it to start just because it suddenly got heavier.

Explain what an exoskeleton is and what it is made of.
sergey [27]
The bodies of arthropods are supported, not by internal bones, but by a hardened exoskeleton<span> made of </span>chitin<span>, a substance produced by many non-arthropods as well. In arthropods, the nonliving exoskeleton is like a form-fitting suit of armor. It is produced by the "skin" and then hardens into a protective outer-covering.</span>
