A wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis at the center of the wheel. A constant tangential force equa

l to 80 N is applied to the rim of the wheel. The wheel has radius 0.12 m. Starting from rest, the wheel has an angular velocity of 1.2 rad/s after 2 s. What is the rotational inertia of the wheel?

Answer:

I = 16 kg*m²

Explanation:

Newton's second law for rotation

τ = I * α   Formula  (1)

where:

τ : It is the moment applied to the body.  (Nxm)

I :  it is the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation (kg*m²)

α : It is angular acceleration. (rad/s²)

Kinematics of the wheel

Equation of circular motion uniformly accelerated :  

ωf = ω₀+ α*t  Formula (2)

Where:  

α : Angular acceleration (rad/s²)  

ω₀ : Initial angular speed ( rad/s)  

ωf : Final angular speed ( rad

t : time interval (rad)

Data  

ω₀ = 0

ωf = 1.2 rad/s

t = 2 s

Angular acceleration of the wheel  

We replace data in the formula (2):  

ωf = ω₀+ α*t

1.2= 0+ α*(2)

α*(2) = 1.2

α = 1.2 / 2

α = 0.6 rad/s²

Magnitude of the net torque (τ )

τ = F *R

Where:

F  = tangential force (N)

R  = radio (m)

τ = 80 N *0.12 m

τ = 9.6 N *m

Rotational inertia of the wheel

We replace data in the formula (1):

τ = I * α

9.6 = I *(0.6 )

I = 9.6 / (0.6 )

I = 16 kg*m²

The speed increases, because as the angle increases (the wing slants up more steeply), the air has to go farther to get over the wing.

What type of energy waves are used in Solar Cells, and what is it’s position on the electromagnetic spectrum?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: Electromagnetic waves (Ultraviolet light, between 100 nm and 380 nm)

Explanation:

Solar cells work by the photoelectric effect, which consists of the emission of electrons (electric current) when light (electromagnetic waves) falls on a metal surface under certain conditions.  

In this sense, the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum this cells use is Ultraviolet light (UV) from the Sun, whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm.

It is important to note, this is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.

A "spherical capacitor" is constructed of two thin, concentric spherical shells of conducting material. Let a be the radius of t
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

C=\frac{ab}{k(b-a)}

Explanation:

We can assume this problem as two concentric spherical metals with opposite charges.

We have also to take into account the formulas for the electric field and the capacitance. Hence we have

C=\frac{Q}{V}\\\\E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}\\

Where k is the Coulomb's constant. Furthermore, by taking into account the expression for the potential and by integrating

dV=Edr\\\\V=\int_{R_1}^{R_2}Edr=-\int_{R_1}^{R_2}\frac{kQ}{r^2}dr\\\\V=kQ[\frac{1}{R_2}-\frac{1}{R_1}]

Hence, the capacitance is

C=\frac{1}{k[\frac{1}{R_2}-\frac{1}{R_1}]}

but R1=a and R2=b

C=\frac{ab}{k(b-a)}

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

how can there be so many different substances in the world if there are only a few elements that are common? 
LuckyWell [14K]
-- If there are only  <em>10</em>  elements in the universe that can make compound molecules, and a compound molecule can be formed by combining  1,  2,  3, or  4  different elements, then that's already the possibility of  at least 400 different molecules.

-- There are many more than  10  elements that can combine to form compound molecules.

-- Every single "<em>organic</em>" molecule, of which there are thousands, is the combination of <em>carbon</em> with other elements.

-- Most all of the substances that can be distilled out of oil, including the paraffin waxes, the alcohols, gasoline, kerosene, butane, propane, octane, and natural gas, are made of just carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, only with different numbers of each one. 

-- Plastics, drugs, rubber, and DNA are examples of molecules that are made of <em>hundreds</em> of atoms.
