There is a girl pushing on a large stone sphere. The sphere has a mass of 8200 kgand a radius of 90 cm and floats with nearly ze

ro friction on a thin layer of pressurized water. Suppose that she pushes on the sphere tangent to its surface with a steady force of F = 30N and that the pressured water provides a frictionless support.
How long will it take her to rotate the sphere one time, starting from rest?

Answer:

35.1688 seconds

Explanation:

M = Mass of sphere = 8200 kg

R = Radius of sphere = 90 cm

F = Force = 30 N

Moment of inertia is given by

I=\dfrac{2}{5}MR^2\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 8200\times 0.9^2\\\Rightarrow I=2656.8\ kgm^2

Torque is given by

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow FR=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{FR}{I}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{30\times 0.9}{2656.8}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=0.01016\ rad/s^2

For one rotation

\theta=\omega_it+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\Rightarrow 2\pi=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.01016\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\pi2}{0.01016}}\\\Rightarrow t=35.1688\ s

The time taken to rotate the sphere from rest is 35.1688 seconds

ahrayia [7]

Work is equal to the force applied times the displacement. Since you pull the wagon at constant speed this means that there is no acceleration on the wagon as it does not change speed. F=ma. Since a=0, F=0. Therefore no work has been done in this situation

A 1500 W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120 V circuit that has a 20 A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hai
Mila [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

Current drawn by electric heater = power/volt =1500/120 = 12.5 A.

current drawn by hair drier at 600 watt = 600/120 =5 A

current drawn by hair drier at 900 watt = 900/120 = 7.5 A.

Total current drawn by heater and hair drier used at 900 watt

= 12.5 + 7.5 = 20 A

Breaking current =20 A

So fuse will trip at this point .

Alike - both part of the light spectrum, cannot be seen with the naked eye

Different - IR is less energetic than UV, UV has a shorter wavelength than IR

IR - infrared
UV - ultraviolet

If my cylinder of air lasts 60 minutes while I am at the surface breathing normally, assuming all else is the same, how long wil
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the volume of air be V. at atmospheric pressure, that is 10⁵  Pa

At 20 m below surface pressure will be

atmospheric pressure + hdg

10⁵ + 20 x 9.8 x 1000 = 2.96 x 10⁵Pa

At this pressure volume V becomes V/ 2.96  

This volume will last 1/2.96 times  time that is 60/2.96 = 20.27 minutes.
