Answer:

The correct answer is spin faster.

Explanation:

The angular momentum or kinetic moment is a physical magnitude, rotational equivalent of the linear momentum and represents the amount of rotational movement of an object. It is a vector quantity that characterizes the inertia properties of a body, which rotates in relation to a certain point. It is found in the three mechanics (classical, quantum and relativistic mechanics). In the International System of Units the angular momentum is measured in kg · m² / s. This magnitude plays a role similar to the linear moment in the translations with respect to the rotations.

Answer: In order to conserve angular momentum, the cloud must spin faster

Explanation: Angular momentum is a vector quantity that is used to describe the property of a rotating object. It can be derived by the multiplication of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity of the object. Angular momentum depends on:

-the mass of the object,

-how far it is spinning,

-whether the mass is close to or far from the center of the mass and spin.

if the distance of the mass from the center of the cloud decreases, the rate of spin must increase to compensate.

The heat capacity of nickel is 0.444 J/(g · °C). Calculate the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 18 g of nickel
azamat

The final speed of the nickel at the given quantity of heat is determined as 202.1  m/s.

<h3>Final speed of the nickel</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of energy.

Q = mcΔθ

Q = (18)(0.444)(66 - 20)

Q = 367.63 J

Q = K.E = ¹/₂mv²

2K.E = mv²

v = √(2K.E/m)

where;

  • v is the final speed

v = √(2 x 367.63)/(0.018))

v = 202.1 m/s

In a mixture of the gases oxygen and helium, which statement is valid: (a) the helium molecules will be moving faster than the o
mixer [17]

Answer:

a

Explanation:

Given:

In a mixture of the gases oxygen and helium, which statement is valid:

(a) the helium molecules will be moving faster than the oxygen molecules, on average

(b) both kinds of molecules will be moving at the same speed

(c) the oxygen molecules will, on average, be moving more rapidly than the helium molecules

(d) the kinetic energy of the helium will exceed that of the oxygen

(e) none of the above

Solution:

- We will use Boltzmann distribution to answer this question. The root mean square speed of molecules of a gas gives the average speed as follows:

                                        V_rms = sqrt ( 3 k T / m )

- Where, k is the Boltzmann constant, T is the temperature and m is the mass of a single molecule of a gas.

- In general, a mixture has a constant equilibrium temperature T_eq.

- So the v_rms is governed by the mass of a single molecule.

- We know that mass of single molecule of Oxygen is higher than that of Helium molecule. Hence, the relation of mass is inversely proportional to square of root mean speed. So the helium molecules will be moving faster than the oxygen molecules.

- Note: The kinetic energy of the mixture remains constant because it is due to the interaction of the molecules within i.e oxygen and helium. Which makes the kinetic energy independent of mass.

                                     E_k = 0.5*m*v_rms^2

                                     E_k = 0.5*m*(3*k*T/ m )

                                    E_k = 0.5*3*k*T

Hence, E_k is only the function of Temperature which we already established to remain constant at equilibrium.

A golf ball is struck with a five iron on level ground. it lands 100.0 m away 4.60 s later. what was the magnitude and direction
finlep [7]

consider the motion in x-direction

v_{ox} = initial velocity in x-direction = ?

X = horizontal distance traveled = 100 m

a_{x} = acceleration along x-direction = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.60 sec

Using the equation

X = v_{ox} t + (0.5) a_{x} t²

100 =  v_{ox} (4.60)

v_{ox} = 21.7 m/s


consider the motion along y-direction

v_{oy} = initial velocity in y-direction = ?

Y = vertical displacement  = 0 m

a_{y} = acceleration along x-direction = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.60 sec

Using the equation

Y = v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t²

0 = v_{oy} (4.60) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.60)²

v_{oy} = 22.54 m/s

initial velocity is given as

v_{o} = sqrt((v_{ox})² + (v_{oy})²)

v_{o} = sqrt((21.7)² + (22.54)²) = 31.3 m/s

direction: θ = tan⁻¹(22.54/21.7) = 46.12 deg
