A disc on a frictionless axle, starting from rest (0 rpm) can spin up to a rotation rate of 3820 rpm in a period of 2 seconds. (
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

1000 Nm

2000 Nm

1.00007 seconds

Explanation:

I = Moment of inertia = 5 kgm²

\alpha = Angular acceleration

\omega_f = Final angular velocity

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity

t = Time taken

Torque is given by

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=5\times 200\\\Rightarrow \tau=1000\ Nm

The torque of the disc would be 1000 Nm

If \alpha=400\ rad/s^2

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=5\times 400\\\Rightarrow \tau=2000\ Nm

The torque of the disc would be 2000 Nm

From equation of rotational motion

\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\alpha}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{3820\times \frac{2\pi}{60}-0}{400}\\\Rightarrow t=1.00007\ s

It would take 1.00007 seconds to reach 3820 rpm

When a potential difference of 10 V is placed across a certain solid cylindrical resistor, the current through it is 2 A. If the
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

New Resistance = 0.5556 ohm

Explanation:

Resistance = resistivity * length /area

Here since resistivity and length are constant, we only need to see how the resistance increases or decreases with change in area.

New Area = pi * (3*D)^2 / 4

Old Area = pi * D^2 / 4

The ratio of new area / old area is :

\frac{New Area}{Old Area} = 9

Since area increases 9 times, and it is inversely proportional to resistance:

Resistance decreases by 9 times.

So, old resistance = Voltage / Current = 10 / 2 = 5 ohm

New Resistance = 5 / 9 = 0.5556 ohm    (decreases by 9 times)
