A certain alarm clock ticks four times each second, with each tick representing half a period. The balance wheel consists of a t

hin rim with radius 0.54 cm , connected to the balance staff by thin spokes of negligible mass. The total mass of the balance wheel is 0.95 g .Part AWhat is the moment of inertia of the balance wheel about its shaft?Express your answer using two significant figures.Part BWhat is the torsion constant of the hairspring?Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

a. I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

b. K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Explanation:

The inertia can be find using

a.

I = m*r^2

m = 0.95 g * \frac{1 kg}{1000g}=9.5x10^{-4} kg

r=0.54 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} =5.4x10^{-3}m

I = 9.5x10^{-4}kg*(5.4x10^{-3}m)^2

I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

now to find the torsion constant can use knowing the period of the balance

b.

T=0.5 s

T=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}

Solve to K'

K = \frac{4\pi^2* I}{T^2}=\frac{4\pi^2*2.7702 kg*m^2}{(0.5s)^2}

K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Un cuerpo se mueve, partiendo del reposo, con una aceleración constante de 8 m/s². Calcular la velocidad que tiene al cabo de 5s
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

v = 40 m / s

Explanation:

Let's use the expressions for accelerated motion

         v = v₀ + a t

where vo is the initial velocity, at the acceleration and t is the time.

as the body starts from rest its initial velocity is zero

         v = 0 + at

let's calculate

         v = 8  5

         v = 40 m / s

zepelin [54]

Answer:

3. both are true.

Explanation:

Energy increses with decrease in wavelenght.

For photoemission to occur, a threshold energy barrier must be broken.

Higher energy means more electrons will be emmited.

The electrons emmited will posses energy that is less than the incident energy by the value of the threshold energy.

So the higher the energy, the higher the energy possessed by the electrons.

Which of the following nuclei is most stable based on its binding energy?
Anettt [7]
We have that the most stable nuclei are the ones with the highest average binding energy. We see that Nitrogen has a mass number of 15 and that in this region of the graph average binding energy is low. Silver and Gold are along a line where there is a constant decline in average binding energy; silver has more than gold. However, we see that at the start of this decline, there is Fe 56. This region has the elements with the highest average binding energy; Nickel with a mass number of 58 is right there and thus it is the most stable nucleus out of the listed ones.
