Answer:

Take whatever you weigh in pounds and divide by 2.205.

Explanation:

Because weight is a measure of the force you exert on the earth, with some simple manipulation of Newton's second law we can get your mass in kilograms. 2.205 is just a nice constant that does that for you, but the more in-depth version is that

F = ma

The equation for weight is thus

W = mg, where W is your weight in pounds, m is your mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.80 m/s^2)

Thus, your mass in kilograms is m = W / g.

Answer:

Height will be 3.8971 m

Explanation:

We have given that radius of the solid r = 1.60 m

Mass of the solid disk m = 2.30 kg

Angular velocity $\omega =4.46rad/sec$

Moment of inertia is given by $I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2$

Transnational Kinetic energy is given by $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ as we know that v = $v=\omega r$

So $KE=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2$

Rotational kinetic energy is given by $KE_{ROTATIONAL}=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \right )\omega ^2=\frac{1}{4}m(r\omega )^2$
