A child standing on the edge of a freely spinning merry-go-round moves quickly to the center. Which one of the following stateme

nts is necessarily true concerning this event and why?
a. the angular speed of the system increases because the moment of inertia of the system has decreased.
b. the angular speed of the system increases because the moment of inertia of the system has increased.
c. The angular speed of the system decreases because the moment of inertia of the system has increased.
d. The angular speed of the system remains the same because the net torque on the merry-go-round is zero N x m.
e. The angular speed of the system decreases because the moment of inertia of the system has decreased.

An engineer is designing a runway. She knows that a plane, starting at rest, needs to reach a speed of 180mph at take-off. If th
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The plane would need to travel at least 8,\!580\; {\rm ft} (8.58 \times 10^{3}\; {\rm ft}.)

The 10,\!000\; {\rm ft} runway should be sufficient.

Explanation:

Convert unit of the the take-off velocity of this plane to \rm ft\cdot s^{-1}:

\begin{aligned}v &= 180\; {\rm mph} \\ &= 180\; {\rm mi \cdot hrs^{-1}} \times \frac{1\; {\rm hrs}}{3600\; {\rm s}} \times \frac{5280\; {\rm ft}}{1\; {\rm mi}} \\ &= 264\; {\rm ft \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Initial velocity of the plane: u = 0\; {\rm ft \cdot s^{-1}}.

Take-off velocity of the plane v =264\; {\rm ft\cdot s^{-1}}.

Let x denote the distance that the plane travelled along the runway. Since acceleration is constant but unknown, make use of the SUVAT equation x = ((u + v) / 2) \, t.

Notice that this equation does not require the value of acceleration. Rather, this equation make use of the fact that the distance travelled (under constant acceleration) is equal to duration t times average velocity (u + v) / 2.

The distance that the plane need to cover would be:

\begin{aligned}x &= \left(\frac{u + v}{2}\right)\, t \\ &= \frac{0\; {\rm ft \cdot s^{-1}} + 264\; {\rm ft \cdot s^{-1}}}{2} \times 65.0\; {\rm s} \\ &= 8.58\times 10^{3}\; {\rm ft}\end{aligned}.

An airplane weighing 11,000 N climbs to a
Gennadij [26K]

The power in horsepower is 40.1 hp

Explanation:

We start by calculating the work done by the airplane during the climb, which is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy:

W=(mg)\Delta h

where

mg = 11,000 N is the weight of the airplane

\Delta h = 1.6 km = 1600 m is the change in height

Substituting,

W=(11,000)(1600)=17.6\cdot 10^6 J

Now we can calculate the power delivered, which is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W=17.6\cdot 10^6 J is the work done

t=9.8 min \cdot 60 = 588 s is the time taken

Substituting,

P=\frac{17.6\cdot 10^6 J}{588}=2.99\cdot 10^4 W

Finally, we can convert the power into horsepower (hp), keeping in mind that

1 hp = 746 W

Therefore,

P=\frac{2.99\cdot 10^4}{746}=40.1 hp

A certain spring stores 10.0J of potential energy when it isstretched by 2.00cm from its equilibrium position.How much potential
qaws [65]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

x= 0.02 m

E_p= 10.0 J

E_p= 0.5kx^2

10= 0.5k(0.02)^2

solving we get

K= 50.0 N/m

Now

E'_p= 0.5kx'^2

E'_p= 0.5×50×(0.04)^2

E'_p=40 J

b) potential energy is a scalar quantity and it only depends magnitude and not direction so it will remain same in compression and expansion both

c) 20 J = 0.5×50,000×x^2

solving

x= 0.028 m

d) k is 50.0 N/m  from above calculation
