We divide the thin rectangular sheet in small parts of height b and length dr. All these sheets are parallel to b. The infinitesimal moment of inertia of one of these small parts is

where

Now we find the moment of inertia by integrating from

to

The moment of inertia is

(from (-a/2) to

(a/2))
Answer:
w = 4,786 rad / s
, f = 0.76176 Hz
Explanation:
For this problem let's use the concept of angular momentum
L = I w
The system is formed by the two discs, during the impact the system remains isolated, we have the forces are internal, this implies that the external torque is zero and the angular momentum is conserved
Initial Before sticking
L₀ = 0 + I₂ w₂
Final after coupling
= (I₁ + I₂) w
The moments of inertia of a disk with an axis of rotation in its center are
I = ½ M R²
How the moment is preserved
L₀ = 
I₂ w₂ = (I₁ + I₂) w
w = w₂ I₂ / (I₁ + I₂)
Let's reduce the units to the SI System
d₁ = 60 cm = 0.60 m
d₂ = 40 cm = 0.40 m
f₂ = 200 min-1 (1 min / 60 s) = 3.33 Hz
Angular velocity and frequency are related.
w₂ = 2 π f₂
w₂ = 2π 3.33
w₂ = 20.94 rad / s
Let's replace
w = w₂ (½ M₂ R₂²) / (½ M₁ R₁² + ½ M₂ R₂²)
w = w₂ M₂ R₂² / (M₁ R₁² + M₂ R₂²)
Let's calculate
w = 20.94 8 0.40² / (12 0.60² + 8 0.40²)
w = 20.94 1.28 / 5.6
w = 4,786 rad / s
Angular velocity and frequency are related.
w = 2π f
f = w / 2π
f = 4.786 / 2π
f = 0.76176 Hz
The leaf fell at the crooked path instead of straight down because air currents and gravity applied changing and unbalanced forces to the leaf.
<h3>What is an air current?</h3>
An air current is defined as the changes in atmospheric pressure that causes the movement of air from one area to another.
When a leaf is detached naturally from the tree, it won't fall straight down to the floor but will fall a distance away from the tree due to the action of air current and some unbalanced forces.

Answer:

Explanation:
14 lb force is required to stretch the spring by 4 inch distance
So we have



stretch in the spring is given as

now we will have



Now we need to find the work to stretch it by x = 10 in = 0.254 m
so we have
