When the play button is pressed, a CD accelerates uniformly from rest to 450 rev/min in 3.0 revolutions. If the CD has a radius
Marina CMI [18]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of angular motion.

Torque from the rotational movement is defined as

\tau = I\alpha

where

I = Moment of inertia \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mr^2 For a disk

\alpha = Angular acceleration

The angular acceleration at the same time can be defined as function of angular velocity and angular displacement (Without considering time) through the expression:

2 \alpha \theta = \omega_f^2-\omega_i^2

Where

\omega_{f,i} = Final and Initial Angular velocity

\alpha = Angular acceleration

\theta = Angular displacement

Our values are given as

\omega_i = 0 rad/s

\omega_f = 450rev/min (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})

\omega_f = 47.12rad/s

\theta = 3 rev (\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev}) \rightarrow 6\pi rad

r = 7cm = 7*10^{-2}m

m = 17g = 17*10^{-3}kg

Using the expression of angular acceleration we can find the to then find the torque, that is,

2\alpha\theta=\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2

\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}

\alpha = \frac{47.12^2-0^2}{2*6\pi}

\alpha = 58.89rad/s^2

With the expression of the acceleration found it is now necessary to replace it on the torque equation and the respective moment of inertia for the disk, so

\tau = I\alpha

\tau = (\frac{1}{2}mr^2)\alpha

\tau = (\frac{1}{2}(17*10^{-3})(7*10^{-2})^2)(58.89)

\tau = 0.00245N\cdot m \approx 2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m

Therefore the torque exerted on it is 2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m

"It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat, yet a body can transfer heat to another body. How can a
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Because heat is a path function or the energy in transit.

Explanation:

  • It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat because the heat is a path function and not a property of the system. It is the energy in transit which can be encountered only when it crosses the system boundary.
  • Heat is the energy in transit of a matter which flows by the virtue of temperature difference. The heat energy in a body is stored in the form of kinetic energy of the molecules which gets converted into heat that we know as the responsible factor for the rise in temperature usually.

Match each property with the benefit it provides to people on Earth. A. magnetic field filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
vodomira [7]

The correct matching are the following:

  • A. magnetic field: prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface
  • B. ozone: filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
  • C. carbon dioxide: retains heat energy from the sun in the atmosphere
  • D. water in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams: moderates changes in temperature on the surface

The electromagnetic field of the Earth protects us from solar wind by deflecting it. Without it, the charged particles would strip away our ozone, which will lead to the end of life on Earth.

The ozone is a layer in the stratosphere that filters the suns rays. It filters the UV rays by absorbing it. This prevents the UV rays from damaging the surface of the Earth.

Carbon dioxide retains heat in the atmosphere, which creates a greenhouse effect. It is beneficial for us, but because human activity like industrial activities emit so much carbon in the atmosphere that it ends up being harmful.

Bodies of water found on Earth regulate the temperature of the Earth through ocean currents. It brings in both cold and warm air to land which also affect precipitation.

Long explanation, I know, but maybe this will help you out in the long run. Good Luck!

After being struck by a bowling ball, a 1.3 kg bowling pin sliding to the right at 5.0 m/s collides head-on with another 1.3 kg
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

a) 4.2m/s

b) 5.0m/s

Explanation:

This problem is solved using the principle of conservation of linear momentum which states that in a closed system of colliding bodies, the sum of the total momenta before collision is equal to the sum of the total momenta after collision.

The problem is also an illustration of elastic collision where there is no loss in kinetic energy.

Equation (1) is a mathematical representation of the the principle of conservation of linear momentum for two colliding bodies of masses m_1 and m_2 whose respective velocities before collision are u_1 and u_2;

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2..............(1)

where v_1 and v_2 are their respective velocities after collision.

Given;

m_1=1.3kg\\u_1=5m/s\\m_2=1.3kg\\u_2=0m/s

Note that u_2=0 because the second mass m_2 was at rest before the collision.

Also, since the two masses are equal, we can say that m_1=m_2=m so that equation (1) is reduced as follows;

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\\\m(u_1+u_2)=m(v_1+v_2)..............(2)

m cancels out of both sides of equation (2), and we obtain the following;

u_1+u_2=v_1+v_2.............(3)

a) When v_1=0.8m/s, we obtain the following by equation(3)

5+0=0.8+v_2\\hence\\v_2=5-0.8\\v_2=4.2m/s

b) As m_1 stops moving v_1=0, therefore,

5+0=0+v_2\\v_2=5m/s

Use newton's third law to explain why a blown up balloon but untied balloon will fly around the room when you let it go? really
sergij07 [2.7K]
Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When you let go of the ballon, you are letting the force out but the force also pushes the balloon back.
