Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         = (1/2) (1.4 kg) (22.5 m/s)²

                         =    (0.7 kg)  (506.25 m²/s² )

                         =          354.375  kg-m²/s²  =  354.375 joules .

This is just the kinetic energy associated with a 1.4-kg glob of
mass sailing through space at 22.5 m/s.  In the case of a frisbee,
it's also spinning, and there's some additional kinetic energy stored
in the spin.

A string of 26 identical Christmas tree lights are connected in series to a 120 V source. The string dissipates 73 W. What is th
spin [16.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Ohm's law and Electric Power. By Ohm's law we know that resistance is equivalent to,

R_{eq}= \frac{V}{I}

Here,

V = Voltage

I = Current

While the power is equivalent to the product between the current and the voltage, thus solving for the current we have,

P=VI \rightarrow I = \frac{P}{V}

I =0.608 A

Applying Ohm's law

R_{eq} = \frac{120V}{0.608A}

R_{eq} = 197.4\Omega

Therefore the equivalent resistance of the light string is 197.4\Omega

"Which of the following statements about electrons is not true?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

B) Within an atom, an electron can have only particular energies.

Explanation:

As we know that electrons have energy but apart from electrons we know that protons and neutrons inside the nucleus of atom will also have energy in them.

rest all the statements are true as we have

A) Electrons orbit the nucleus rather like planets orbiting the Sun.

TRUE, because electrons can move in stationary orbit around the nucleus

C) Electrons can jump between energy levels in an atom only if they receive or give up an amount of energy equal to the difference in energy between the energy levels.

Difference amount of energy is lost or absorbed by the electron in form of photons

D) An electron has a negative electrical charge.

Charge of an electron is given as -1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

E) Electrons have very little mass compared to protons or neutrons

Mass of an electron is given as

m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg

mass of proton or neutron

m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

Inertia is ______ to mass.
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Inertia is directly proportional to mass of an object. Therefore, when the force of inertia increases the mass also increases, and when it decreases the mass also decreases.

A 129-kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.51 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 67.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

I = 274.75 kg-m²

Explanation:

given,

mass of horizontal platform = 129 Kg

radius of the disk = 1.51 m

mass of the person(m_p) = 67.5 Kg

standing at distance(r_p) = 1.09 m

mass of dog(m_d) = 25.3 Kg

sitting near the person(r_d) = 1.37 m from center

moment of inertia = ?

Moment of inertia of disc = \dfrac{1}{2}MR^2

Moment of inertia of the system

I = MOI\ of\ disk + m_p r_p^2 + m_d r_d^2

I = \dfrac{1}{2}MR^2 + m_p r_p^2 + m_d r_d^2

I = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 129 \times 1.51^2 + 67.5 \times 1.09^2 + 25.3\times 1.37^2

I = 274.75 kg-m²
