The lack of an atmosphere means convection cannot happen on the moon. Therefore, there is no form of heat dissipation on regions in direct sunlight. In addition, the lack of an atmosphere means there is no greenhouse effect on the moon. This is why regions facing away from sunlight are very cold.
Answer:
Explanation:
To find out the angular velocity of merry-go-round after person jumps on it , we shall apply law of conservation of ANGULAR momentum
I₁ ω₁ + I₂ ω₂ = ( I₁ + I₂ ) ω
I₁ is moment of inertia of disk , I₂ moment of inertia of running person , I is the moment of inertia of disk -man system , ω₁ and ω₂ are angular velocity of disc and man .
I₁ = 1/2 mr²
= .5 x 175 x 2.13²
= 396.97 kgm²
I₂ = m r²
= 55.4 x 2.13²
= 251.34 mgm²
ω₁ = .651 rev /s
= .651 x 2π rad /s
ω₂ = tangential velocity of man / radius of disc
= 3.51 / 2.13
= 1.65 rad/s
I₁ ω₁ + I₂ ω₂ = ( I₁ + I₂ ) ω
396.97 x .651 x 2π + 251.34 x 1.65 = ( 396.97 + 251.34 ) ω
ω = 3.14 rad /s
kinetic energy = 1/2 I ω²
= 3196 J
Answer:
<em>113.4 J</em>
Explanation:
<u>Elastic Potential Energy</u>
Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.
The spring has a natural length of 0.7 m and a spring constant of k=70 N/m. When the spring is stretched to a length of 2.5 m, the change of length is
Δx = 2.5 m - 0.7 m = 1.8 m
The energy stored in the spring is:
PE = 113.4 J
