A 75 g, 30 cm long rod hangs vertically on a friction less, horizontal axel passing through the center. A 10 g ball of clay trav

elling horizontally at 2.5 m/s hits and stick to the very bottom tip of the rod. To what maximum angle, measured from vertical, does the rod rotates when the ball of clay is attached to the rod?

Angular momentum is conserved, just before the clay hits and just after; 
<span>mv(L/2) = Iw </span>

<span>I is the combined moment of inertia of the rod, (1/12)ML^2 , and the clay at the tip, m(L/2)^2 ; </span>
<span>I = [(1/12)ML^2 + m(L/2)^2] </span>

<span>Immediately after the collision the kinetic energy of rod + clay swings the rod up so the clay rises to a height "h" above its lowest point, giving it potential energy, mgh. From energy conservation in this phase of the problem; </span>
<span>(1/2)Iw^2 = mgh </span>

<span>Use the "w" found in the conservation of momentum above; and solve for "h" </span>
<span>h = mv^2L^2/8gI </span>

<span>Next, get the angle by noting it is related to "h" as; </span>
<span>h = (L/2) - (L/2)Cos() </span>

<span>So finally </span>
<span>Cos() = 1- 2h/L = 1 - mv^2L/4gI </span>

<span>m=mass of clay </span>
<span>M=mass of rod </span>
<span>L=length of rod </span>
<span>v=velocity of clay</span>

Study the analogy, and then answer the question that follows.
nordsb [41]
What kind of analogy is this?
A. synonyms
B. part to whole
C. degrees of intensity

Reading Check: (Describe) how pressure changes as the velocity of a fluid<br> increases.
juin [17]

Answer:

Bernoulli's equation states mathematically that if a fluid is flowing through a tube and the tube diameter decreases, then the velocity of the fluid increases, the pressure decreases, and the mass flow (and therefore volumetric flow) remains constant so long as the air density is constan

Which of the following choices is a single-replacement reaction? A. 2K + Br2 2KBr B. 2H2 + O2 2H2O C. Mg + FeO Fe + MgO D. C + 2
Otrada [13]
A single replacement reaction occurs when two different cations switch places to combine with the same anion. One element forms a compound while another element is released from the compound. In a single replacement reaction, or single displacement reaction, a single<span> uncombined element replaces another in a compound.

So you're answer is probably c.
