A disk rotates freely on a vertical axis with an angular velocity of 50 rpm . An identical disk rotates above it in the same dir

ection about the same axis, but without touching the lower disk, at 20 rpm . The upper disk then drops onto the lower disk. After a short time, because of friction, they rotate together.The final angular velocity of the disks is1. 49 rpm2. 21 rpm3. 77 rpm4. 35 rpm5. 42 rpm

Answer:

Final angular velocity is 35rpm

Explanation:

Angular velocity is given by the equation:

I1w1i + I2w2i = I1w1f -I2w2f

But the two disks are identical, so Ii =I2

wf can be calculated using

wf = w1i - w2i/2

Given: w1i =50rpm w2i= 30rpm

wf= (50 + 20) / 2

wf= 70/2 = 35rpm

How do scientists determine the number of neutrons in an isotope of an atom? A. They find the number of protons. B. They divide
Aleks04 [339]

'D' would do the job ... When you subtract the protons from the mass,
what you have left is neutrons.  (The electrons can be ignored.  It takes
around 1840 electrons ! to add the mass of a single proton or neutron !)

I don't know it for a fact, but I'd be surprised if the process is really that
simple.  I mean, it starts out with knowing the atomic mass, and then
knowing the number of protons in the nucleus.  Each of those is a
whole complex problem in itself.

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

If a car is moving to the left with constant velocity, one can conclude that

there must be no forces applied to the car .  The net force applied to the car is zero.

Since there is no acceleration ,no net force is applied , hence no force acts on the car.
