Suppose that you are holding a pencil balanced on its point. If you release the pencil and it begins to fall, what will be the a

ngular acceleration when it has an angle of 10.0 degrees from the vertical? A typical pencil has an average length of 15.0 cm and an average mass of 10.0 g . Assume the tip of the pencil does not slip as it falls.What is the angular acceleration of the pencil when it makes an angle of 10.0 degrees with the vertical?

Answer:

The angular acceleration of the pencil<em> α  = 17 rad·s⁻²</em>

Explanation:

Using Newton's second angular law or torque to find angular acceleration, we get the following expressions:

    τ = I α                              (1)

    W r = I α                          (2)

The weight is that the pencil has is,

   sin 10 = r / (L/2)

   r = L/2(sin(10))

 

The shape of the pencil can be approximated to be a cylinder that rotates on one end and therefore its moment of inertia will be:

    I = 1/3 M L²

Thus,

   mg(L / 2)sin(10) = (1/3 m L²)(α) 

   α(f) = 3/2(g) / Lsin(10)

   α  = 3/2(9.8) / 0.150sin(10)

  <em> α  = 17 rad·s⁻²</em>

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the pencil<em> </em>is<em> 17 rad·s⁻²</em>

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

the volume in terms of time t ⇒ \\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\

Explanation:

Given that :

\frac{dv}{dt}= kv\\\\\int\limits \, \frac{dv}{v}=  \int\limits \, kdt\\In v = kt + C_1\\v = e^{kt} + C\\400 = e^{k*0} + C\\400 = 1 + C\\C = 400 -1\\C = 399

V = e^{kt} + 399

When v = 300 ;  \frac{dv}{dt}= - 15

then

\frac{dv}{dt}= kv\\\\-15 = 300*k\\\\k = \frac{-15}{300}\\\\\\k = \frac{-1}{20}\\\\k = -0.05

∴ \\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\

Therefore, the volume in terms of time t ⇒ \\V = e^{0.05t} + 399\\

a 252,000j of heat energy is required to heat 2kg water. if (CH2O=42000j/kgk.what is change in temperature ?​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

theres an decrease in temperature because 252,000 is more than 42,000. so its colder and not as hot as 252,000.

What is the speed of a wave frequency of 300hz and a wavelength of 25M
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

7500 m/s

Explanation:

We can use the equation velocity of a wave equals wavelength times  frequency.  Therefore, v = wavelength*f = (25 m)(300 Hz) =  m/s7,500
