Answer:

r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm

Explanation:

The general equation to calculate the center of mass is:

r_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits {r} \, dm

Any differential of mass can be calculated as:

dm = \lambda*a*d\theta  Where "a" is the radius of the circle and λ is the linear density of the wire.

The linear density is given by:

\lambda=M/L=M/(a*\pi/2)=\frac{2M}{a\pi}

So, the differential of mass is:

dm = \frac{2M}{a\pi}*a*d\theta

dm = \frac{2M}{\pi}*d\theta

Now we proceed to calculate X and Y coordinates of the center of mass separately:

X_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*cos\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta

Y_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*sin\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta

Solving both integrals, we get:

X_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm

Y_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm

Therefore, the position of the center of mass is:

r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm

This is possible due to self-discharge. Very small internal currents inevitably occur in these cells over time and they will eventually exhaust the chemistry.

You measure the power delivered by a battery to be 4.26 W when it is connected in series with two equal resistors. How much powe
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<em>The power delivered by the battery is 17.04 W</em>

Explanation:

Power through a circuit is given as

P = IV    ....1

where P is the power

I is the current through the circuit

V is the voltage through the circuit

The voltage in a circuit is given as

V = IR    ....2

Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R

when connected in series, the total resistance will be

R_{t} = R + R = 2R

If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is

I = V/2R

If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be

\frac{1}{R_{t} } = \frac{1}{R} +

R_{t} = R/2

The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced

I = 2V/R

comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of

\frac{2V}{R} ÷  \frac{V}{2R} =  

This means that the current increased 4 times

From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to

P = 4 x 4.26 = <em>17.04 W</em>

A wall clock has a second hand 22.0 cmcm long. For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tut
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

The tip of the second hand moves on a circular path having radius equal to .22 m . Redial acceleration is given by the expression

ω²R where ω is angular velocity and R is radius of the circular path .

angular velocity of second hand = 2π / T where T is time period of circular motion . For second hand it is 60 s.

ω = 2π / T

= 2π / 60

= .1047

angular acceleration =  .1047² x .22

= 2.41 x 10⁻³ rad / s² .
