Answer:
a.) L = 2.64 kgm^2/s
b.) V = 4.4 m/s
Explanation: Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body. This will be considered as radius.
So,
Radius r = 0.6 m
Mass M = 2 kg
Velocity V = 1.1 m/s
Angular momentum L can be expressed as;
L = MVr
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
L = 2 × 1.1 × 0.6 = 1.32kgm^2s^-1
the combined angular momentum of the masses will be 2 × 1.32 = 2.64 kgm^2s-1
b. If she pulls her arms into 0.15 m,
New radius = 0.15 m
Using the same formula again
L = 2( MVr)
2.64 = 2( 2 × V × 0.15 )
1.32 = 0.3 V
V = 1.32/0.3
V = 4.4 m/s
Her new linear speed will be 4.4 m/s
Using the principle of floatation.
u = w............(a)
Upthrust of fluid is equal to the weight of the object.
Let the volume of the wood be V.
The upthrust u, is related to the volume submerged in water, and that is 1/5 of it volume, that is (1/5)V = 0.2V
Formula for upthrust, u = vdg
where v = volume of fluid displaced
d = density of fluid
g = acceleration due to gravity
weight, w = mg
where m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
From (a)
u = w
vdg = mg Cancel out g
vd = m
The v is equal to 0.2V, which is the submerged volume. Notice that the small letter v is volume of fluid displaced, and capital V is the volume of the solid.
d is density of fluid which is water in this case, 1000 kg/m³
0.2V * 1000 = m
200V = m
Hence the mass of the object is 200V kg.
But Density of solid = Mass of solid / Volume of solid
= 200V / V
= 200 kg/m³
Density of solid = 200 kg/m³
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the sum of the external torques on it must also be zero.
The net external force and the net external torque acting on the object have to be zero for an object to be in mechanical equilibrium.
Hence, the given statement is true.
