A wheel of radius R, mass M, and moment of inertia I is mounted on a frictionless, horizontal axles. A light cord wrapped around

the wheel supports an object of mass m. When the wheel is released, the object accelerates downwards, the cord unwraps off the wheel, and the wheel rotates with an angular acceleration. The cord is not slipping.

Answer:

\alpha =\frac{m*g*R}{I-m*R^2}

a = \frac{m*g*R^2}{I-m*R^2}

T=\frac{I*m*g}{I-m*R^2}

Explanation:

By analyzing the torque on the wheel we get:

T*R=I*\alpha    Solving for T:   T=I/R*\alpha

On the object:

T-m*g = -m*a    Replacing our previous value for T:

I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*a

The relation between angular and linear acceleration is:

a=\alpha*R

So,

I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*\alpha*R

Solving for α:

\alpha =\frac{R*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

The linear acceleration will be:

a =\frac{R^2*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

And finally, the tension will be:

T =\frac{I*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

These are the values of all the variables: α, a, T

Suppose a light source is emitting red light at a wavelength of 700 nm and another light source is emitting ultraviolet light at
klasskru [66]

Answer:

b) twice the energy of each photon of the red light.

Explanation:

\lambda = Wavelength

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Energy of a photon is given by

E=h\nu\\\Rightarrow E=h\dfrac{c}{\lambda}

Let \lambda_1 = 700 nm

\lambda_2=350\\\Rightarrow \lambda_2=\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}

For red light

E_1=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda_1}

For UV light

E_2=\dfrac{hc}{\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}}

Dividing the equations

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{hc}{\lambda_1}}{\dfrac{hc}{\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=2E_1

Hence, the answer is  b) twice the energy of each photon of the red light.

A spherical capacitor is formed from two concentric sphericalconducting shells separated by vacuum. The inner sphere has radius1
zubka84 [21]

Explanation:

(1).  Formula to calculate the potential difference is as follows.

       \Delta V = -\int E dr

                  = -\int \frac{kq}{r^{2}} dr

                 = \frac{kq}{r_{f}} - \frac{kq}{r_{i}}

                 = \frac{kq(r_{f} - r_{i})}{r_{f}r_{i}}

                 = \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 3.30 \times 10^{-9}(0.1 - 0.015)}{0.1 \times 0.015}

                = 38.7 volts

Therefore, magnitude of the potential difference between the two spheres is 38.7 volts.

(2).  Now, formula to calculate the energy stored in the capacitor is as follows.

           E = \frac{1}{2}QV

              = \frac{1}{2} \times 3.30 \times 10^{-9} \times 3.87 V

              = 6.39 \times 10^{-8} J

Thus, the electric-field energy stored in the capacitor is 6.39 \times 10^{-8} J.
