To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the moment of inertia.

The given values can be defined as,

M = 1.0 kg

r = 0.5 m

m = 10 g

I = 0.280 kg.m^2

According to the definition of the moment of inertia applied to the exercise we can arrive at the equation that,

I = I_{rim} + n * I_{spoke}

Where n is the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel.

I_{rim} = M*r^2 = 1.0 * 0.5^2

I_{spoke} = \frac{1}{3} * m * r^2 = \frac{1}{3}* 10 * 10^-3 * 0.5^2

Replacing the values at the general equation we have,

0.280 = 1.0 * 0.5^2 + n * (1/3 * 10 * 10^-3 * 0.5^2 )

Solving for n,

n = 36

Therefore the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel is 36

PART B) The mass of the wheel is given by the sum of all masses and the total spokes, then

M_w= M + n*m

M_w = 1.0 + 36* 10 * 10^{-3} Kg

M_w = 1.36 Kg

Therefore the mass of the wheel must be of 1.36Kg

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the Earth has had periodic ice ages is:____________.
horsena [70]

Answer:

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the earth has had periodic ages is that the climate of earth is controlled by the difference in heating of it's surface by the sun. As for example, the equatorial regions are the warmest as the sun is vertically overhead of those areas and the polar regions where the sun is at the extreme angels are the coldest ones.

If two particles have equal charges and are placed near one another, how
navik [9.2K]

Answer: C) The two particles will move away from each other

Explanation:

When two electrically charged bodies come closer, appears a force that attracts or repels them, depending on the sign of the charges of this two bodies.

This is stated by Coulomb's Law:

"The electrostatic force F_{E} between two point charges q_{1} and q_{2} is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance d that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them"  

Mathematically this law is written as:  

F_{E}= K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{d^{2}}  

Where K is a proportionality constant.  

Now, if q_{1} and q_{2} have the same sign charge (both positive or both negative), a repulsive force will act on these charges.

A cyclist travels 36km in 3 hours. What is the cyclist’s average speed?
dybincka [34]
To determine what the cyclists average speed is, simply divide the distance the cyclist has travelled by the time the cyclist has traveled for.

Assuming that this is the average rate the cyclist is moving at it would be 12 km/hr.

A system initially has an internal energy U of 504 J. It undergoes a process during which it releases 111 J of heat energy to th
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

615 J

Explanation:

internal energy (U) = 504 J

heat lost (q) = 111 J = - 111 J (negative sign is because heat is lost)

work done = 222 J

what is the final energy in the system

total energy = final energy - initial energy

final energy = total energy + initial energy

where

initial energy = 504 J

total energy = 222 - 111 = 111 J

final energy = 504 + 111 = 615 J
