Ice skaters often end their performances with spin turns, where they spin very fast about their center of mass with their arms f

olded in and legs together. Upon ending, their arms extend outward, proclaiming their finish. Not quite as noticeably, one leg goes out as well.
Suppose that the moment of inertia of a skater with arms out and one leg extended is 3.5 kg*m^2 and for arms and legs in is 0.70 kg*m^2. If she starts out spinning at 6.0 rev/s, what is her angular speed (in rev/s) when her arms and one leg open outward?

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{30 rev/s}}

Explanation:

This question is based on the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum.

Angular momentum (L) equals the moment of inertia (I) times the angular speed (ω).

L = Iω

If momentum is conserved,

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

Data:

 I₁ = 3.5    kg·m²s⁻¹

ω₁ = 6.0    rev·s⁻¹

 I₂ = 0.70 kg·m²s⁻¹

Calculation:

\begin{array}{rcl}I_{1}\omega_{1} &= &I_{2}\omega_{2}\\\text{3.5 kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$}\times \text{6.0 rev/s} &= &\text{0.70 kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$}\times\omega_{2}\\\text{21 rev/s} &= &0.70\omega_{2}\\\omega_{2} & = & \dfrac{\text{21 rev/s}}{0.70}\\\\&=&\textbf{30 rev/s}\\\end{array}\\\text{The skater's final rotational speed is $\large \boxed{\textbf{30 rev/s}}$}

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.
yan [13]

Answer:

The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.

We need to calculate the distance

Using Pythagorean theorem

D = \sqrt{(d_{m})^2+(d_{w})^2}

Where, d_{m} =distance of Machmer Hall

d_{w} =distance of Witless

Put the value into the formula

D = \sqrt{(400)^2+(180)^2}

D=438.63\ m

Hence, The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

A charge of 8.4 × 10–4 C moves at an angle of 35° to a magnetic field that has a field strength of 6.7 × 10–3 T.
sineoko [7]

Answer:10842.33m/s

Explanation:

F=qvBsine

V=f/(qBsine)

V=(3.5×10^-2)÷(8.4×10^-4×6.7×10^-3×sin35)

V=10842.33m/s

02: Describes what happens to the strength of gravity if the mass between two objects
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. ... increases, the force of gravity decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is one-fourth as strong as before.
