The Earth has seasons because it's rotation axis is not "straight up and down" to the plane of it's orbit around the sun. If the axis were straight up and down, then there would be no changing seasons. Also, days and nights would always be the same length, all year round and everywhere on Earth. The sun would be directly overhead at Noon, every day of the year on the equator, and never anywhere else.

A merry-go-round with a rotational inertia of 600 kg m2 and a radius of 3.0 m is initially at rest. A 20 kg boy approaches the m

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The velocity of the merry-go-round after the boy hops on the merry-go-round is 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round = 600 kg·m²

The radius of the merry-go-round = 3.0 m

The mass of the boy = 20 kg

The speed with which the boy approaches the merry-go-round = 5.0 m/s

$F_T \cdot r = I \cdot \alpha = m \cdot r^2 \cdot \alpha$

Where;

$F_T$ = The tangential force

I = The rotational inertia

m = The mass

α = The angular acceleration

r = The radius of the merry-go-round

For the merry go round, we have;

$I_m \cdot \alpha_m = I_m \cdot \dfrac{v_m}{r \cdot t}$

$I_m$ = The rotational inertia of the merry-go-round

$\alpha _m$ = The angular acceleration of the merry-go-round

$v _m$ = The linear velocity of the merry-go-round

t = The time of motion

For the boy, we have;

$I_b \cdot \alpha_b = m_b \cdot r^2 \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t}$

Where;

$I_b$ = The rotational inertia of the boy

$\alpha _b$ = The angular acceleration of the boy

$v _b$ = The linear velocity of the boy

t = The time of motion

When the boy jumps on the merry-go-round, we have;

$I_m \cdot \dfrac{v_m}{r \cdot t} = m_b \cdot r^2 \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t}$

Which gives;

$v_m = \dfrac{m_b \cdot r^2 \cdot \dfrac{v_b}{r \cdot t} \cdot r \cdot t}{I_m} = \dfrac{m_b \cdot r^2 \cdot v_b}{I_m}$

From which we have;

$v_m = \dfrac{20 \times 3^2 \times 5}{600} = 1.5$

The velocity of the merry-go-round, $v_m$ , after the boy hops on the merry-go-round = 1.5 m/s.

A proton moving with a velocity of 4.0 × 104 m/s enters a magnetic field of 0.20 t. if the angle between the velocity of the pro

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Magnitude of the force on proton = F = 1.1085 × 10^-15 N

Explanation:

Charge on proton = q = 1.60 × 10^-19 C

Velocity of proton = V = 4.0 × 10^4 m/s

Magnetic field = B = 0.20 T

Angle between V and B = θ = 60

We know that,

F = qVBsin θ = (1.60 × 10^-19)( 4.0 × 10^4)( 0.20)sin(60)

F = 1.1085 × 10^-15 N
