The experimenter fom the video rotates on his stool, this time holding his empty hands in his lap. You stand on a desk above him
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

The experimenter is rotating on his stool with angular velocity ω ( suppose )

His moment of inertia is I say

We are applying no torque from outside . therefore , the angular momentum will remain the same

Thus angular momentum L = I ω = constant

Thus we can say I₁ ω₁ = I₂ω₂ = constant

here I₁ is the initial moment of inertia and ω₁ is the initial angular velocity

Similarly I₂ is the final moment of inertia and ω₂ is the final angular velocity

When a been bag is dropped on his lap , his moment of inertia increases due to increase in mass

In the above equation, when moment of inertia increases , the angular velocity decreases . So its motion of rotation will decrease .

A person playing paintball fires a paintball horizontally at 59.1 m/s. The paintball travels a horizontal
BARSIC [14]

New initial velocity=59.1(5)=295.5m/s

We will use proportions to find the distance.

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{59.1}{70.9}=\dfrac{295.5}{x}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{70.9(295.5)}{59.1}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{20950.95}{59.1}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=354.5m

Two parallel-plate capacitors have the same dimensions, but the space between the plates is filled with air in capacitor 1 and w
Aleks [24]

Explanation:

The capacitance in two parallel-plate capacitors is:

C=\frac{K\epsilon_oA}{d}

For air, we have K_1=1

For plastic, we have K_2=2.25

Hence:

C_1=\frac{K_1\epsilon_oA}{d_1}=\frac{\epsilon_oA}{d_1}\\C_2=\frac{K_2\epsilon_oA}{d_2}=2.25(\frac{\epsilon_oA}{d_2})

a) Recall that the potential difference between the plates is the same (V_1=V_2=V). The electric field is given by:

E_1=\frac{V_1}{d_1}=\frac{V}{d_1}\\E_2=\frac{V_2}{d_2}=\frac{V}{d_1}

The potential difference is defined as:

V_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}=V\\V_2=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}=V

Replacing:

E_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1d_1}\\E_2=\frac{Q_1}{C_1d_2}\\\\E_1d_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}\\E_2d_2=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}\\E_1d_1=E_2d_2\\\frac{E_1}{E_2}=\frac{d_2}{d_1}

b) The energy is defined as:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

So:

U_1=\frac{1}{2}C_1V_1^2=\frac{1}{2}C_1V^2\\U_2=\frac{1}{2}C_2V_2^2=\frac{1}{2}C_2V^2\\U_1=\frac{1}{2}\frac{\epsilon_oA}{d_1}V^2\\U_2=\frac{1}{2}\frac{2.25\epsilon_oA}{d_2}V^2\\\frac{0.88U_2d_2}{\epsilon_oA}=V^2\\\frac{2U_1d_1}{\epsilon_oA}=V^2\\\frac{0.88U_2d_2}{\epsilon_oA}=\frac{2U_1d_1}{\epsilon_oA}\\\frac{U_1}{U_2}=0.44\frac{d_2}{d_1}

PHYSICS 50 POINTS PLEASE HELP
babymother [125]

Newton’s First Law of Motion - if an object is at rest, it takes un-

balanced forces to make it move. Conversely, if an object is moving

it takes an unbalanced force to make it change it’s direction or speed.

Newton was the first to see that such apparently diverse phenomena as a satellite moving near the Earth's surface and the planets orbiting the Sun operate by the same principle: Force equals mass multiplied by acceleration, or F=ma.
