When the play button is pressed, a CD accelerates uniformly from rest to 450 rev/min in 3.0 revolutions. If the CD has a radius

of 7.0 cm and a mass of 17 g , what is the torque exerted on it? Express your answer using two significant figures.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of angular motion.

Torque from the rotational movement is defined as

\tau = I\alpha

where

I = Moment of inertia \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mr^2 For a disk

\alpha = Angular acceleration

The angular acceleration at the same time can be defined as function of angular velocity and angular displacement (Without considering time) through the expression:

2 \alpha \theta = \omega_f^2-\omega_i^2

Where

\omega_{f,i} = Final and Initial Angular velocity

\alpha = Angular acceleration

\theta = Angular displacement

Our values are given as

\omega_i = 0 rad/s

\omega_f = 450rev/min (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})

\omega_f = 47.12rad/s

\theta = 3 rev (\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev}) \rightarrow 6\pi rad

r = 7cm = 7*10^{-2}m

m = 17g = 17*10^{-3}kg

Using the expression of angular acceleration we can find the to then find the torque, that is,

2\alpha\theta=\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2

\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}

\alpha = \frac{47.12^2-0^2}{2*6\pi}

\alpha = 58.89rad/s^2

With the expression of the acceleration found it is now necessary to replace it on the torque equation and the respective moment of inertia for the disk, so

\tau = I\alpha

\tau = (\frac{1}{2}mr^2)\alpha

\tau = (\frac{1}{2}(17*10^{-3})(7*10^{-2})^2)(58.89)

\tau = 0.00245N\cdot m \approx 2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m

Therefore the torque exerted on it is 2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m

A 20-kg child running at 1.4 m/s jumps onto a playground merry-go-round that has mass 180 kg and radius 1.6m. She is moving tang
Dominik [7]

Answer:

ωf = 0.16 rad/s

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of the child = mr² = 20(1.6²) = 51.2 kg•m²

Moment of Inertia of the MGR = ½mr² = ½(180)1.6² = 230.4 kg•m²

(ASSUMING it is a uniform disk)

Initial angular momentum of the child = Iω = I(v/r) = 51.2(1.4/1.6) = 44.8 kg•m²/s

Conservation of angular momentum

44.8 = (51.2 + 230.4)ωf

ωf = 0.15909090...

Immediately after it has started to rain, dust particles and oil residue float on the water and ____________ the traction of tir
Mkey [24]

When it rains, dust particles and oil residues float on the water and this reduces the traction of tires.

<h3>What is traction?</h3>

This concept refers to a force between the tires and road that causes the movement of the wheels or vehicle is slower.

<h3>What happens with traction when it rains?</h3>

It is well-known more accidents occur when it rains, which is caused by cars slidding on the road. This is because when it rains traction or the grip of the wheel drastically reduces.

A wave is traveling through a medium. As it travels, it displaces particles of matter in the same direction as the wave is trave
Alexxandr [17]

<u>Answer</u>

longitudinal wave because the particles move parallel to the direction that the wave is traveling.


<u>Explanation</u>

There are 2 types of a wave, electromagnetic and mechanical wave. These waves can also be categorized into two, longitudinal ans transverse waves.

longitudinal wave is a wave whose particles vibration is in the direction of wave travel.

Transverse wave is a wave whose vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.

An accelerator produces a beam of protons with a circular cross section that is 2.0 mm in diameter and has a current of 1.0 mA.
rewona [7]

Answer:

the number density of the protons in the beam is 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter D = 2.0 mm

current I = 1.0 mA

K.E of each proton is 20 MeV

the number density of the protons in the beam = ?

Now, we make use of the relation between current and drift velocity

I = MeAv ⇒ 1 / eAv

The kinetic energy of protons is given by;

K = \frac{1}{2}m_{p}v²

v = √( 2K / m_{p} )

lets relate the cross-sectional area A of the beam to its diameter D;

A = \frac{1}{4}πD²

now, we substitute for v and A

n = I / \frac{1}{4}πeD² ×√( 2K / m_{p} )

n = 4I/π eD² × √(m_{p} / 2K )

so we plug in our values;

n = ((4×1.0 mA)/(π(1.602×10⁻¹⁹C)(2mm)²) × √(1.673×10⁻²⁷kg / 2×( 20 MeV)(1.602×10⁻¹⁹ J/ev )

n =  1.98695 × 10¹⁸ × 1.6157967  × 10⁻⁵

n = 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³  

Therefore, the number density of the protons in the beam is 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³

Kinetic vs potential energy
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy obtained from movement while potential energy is the energy in something when it is at a height or has been manipulated in some way; it has work done to it.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is, like I said, energy gained through movement or action. When an object stops moving, it converts into a different type of energy. Energy cannot be destroyed or created. An object with potential energy has a reference. A reference determines how high it is. The higher and heavier an object is, the more potential energy it has.

Hope this helps!
