(28 points) In a little over 5 billion years, our star will slough off ~20% of its mass and collapse to a white dwarf star of ra

dius 8,000 km. We will model it as a sphere. What will its angular momentum be in terms of its current angular momentum? What will its rotation period be in terms of its current period? b) (12 points) What will its rotational kinetic energy be in terms of its current rotational kinetic energy?

Answer:

The angular momentum is same as it was before.

The rotation period is 1.058*10^{-4} times the original period.

The rotational kinetic energy is 9452 times greater.

Explanation:

The angular momentum L of a rigid body is

L = I\omega,

where I is the moment of inertia and \omega is the angular velocity.

Now, the law of conservation of momentum demands that

I_1\omega_1 = I_2\omega_2,

in words this means the angular momentum before must equal the angular momentum after.

Let us call M the mass, R the radius, and \omega_1 the angular velocity of the sun before it becomes a white dwarf, then its linear momentum is

I_1\omega_1 = \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2 \omega_1     (Remember for a solid sphere I = \dfrac{2}{5} MR^2)

After it has become a white dwarf, the suns mass is 80% of what it had before <em>(went off by 20%),</em> and its radius has become 0.0115% its initial value <em>(8000 km is 0.0115% of the radius of the sun ); </em>therefore, the angular momentum is

I_2\omega_2 = \dfrac{2}{5} (0.8M)(0.0115R)^2 \omega_2

which must be equal to the angular momentum it had before; therefore

\dfrac{2}{5}MR^2 \omega_1 = \dfrac{2}{5} (0.8M)(0.0115R)^2 \omega_2

which we solve for \omega_2:

MR^2 \omega_1 = (0.8M)(0.0115R)^2 \omega_2

MR^2 \omega_1 = (0.8)(0.0115)^2 MR^2\omega_2

\omega_1 = (0.8)(0.0115)^2 \omega_2

\omega_2= \dfrac{\omega_1}{(0.8)(0.0115)^2 }

\boxed{ \omega_2 = 9452\omega_1.}

which is about whopping 9500 times larger than initial angular velocity!!

Now the rotation period T is

T_2 = \dfrac{2\pi}{\omega_2}

T = \dfrac{2\pi}{ 9452\omega_1}= 1.058*10^{-4} (\dfrac{2\pi}{ \omega_1})

since \dfrac{2\pi}{ \omega_1} =T_1

\boxed{T_2 = 1.058*10^{-4} T_1}

Similarly, the rotation kinetic energy will be

K_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}I_2\omega_2^2

K_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}*\dfrac{2}{5} (0.8M)(0.0115R)^2 ( 9452\omega_1})^2

K_2 =0.8*0.0115^2*9452^2 [\dfrac{1}{2}*\dfrac{2}{5} mR^2w_1^2]

\boxed{K_2 =9452 K_1}

which is about 9500 times larger than initial rotational kinetic energy!

A sound source is located somewhere along the x-axis. Experiments show that the same wave front simultaneously reaches listeners
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the source is situated on x - axis , it must be situated in between the two listeners .

So the x coordinate of source is

(-7 + 3 )/2

= - 2 m

The equation of the wave- front will be that o a circle having centre at (-2,0)

and radius = distance between -2 and 3 , that is 5 m

equation of circle

=( x+2 )² + y² = 25

It cuts y axis when x = 0

Putting x = 0

4 + y² = 25

y² = 21

y = + √21 , or - √21

Honeybees accumulate charge as they fly, and they transfer charge to the flowers they visit. Honeybees are able to sense electri
Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the electric field expression

         E = k q / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant that is equal to 9 109 N m² /C², q the charge and r the distance to the point of interest positive test charge, in this case the distance to the bee

let's calculate the field for each charge

 

Q = 24 pC = 24 10⁻¹² C

         E₁ = 9 10⁹ 24 10⁻¹² / 0.20²

         E₁ = 5.4 N / C

Q = 32 pC = 32 10⁻¹² C

         E₂ = 9 10⁹ 32 10⁻¹² / 0.2²

         E₂ = 7.2 N / C

let's find the difference between these two fields

         ΔE = E₂ -E₁

         ΔE = 7.2 - 5.4

         ΔE = 1.8 N / C

the minimum detection field is

         E_minimum = 0.77 N / C

        ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The magnitude of angular acceleration is 232.38\ rad/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, \omega_i=3500\ rev/min=366.5\ rad/s

When it switched off, it comes o rest, \omega_f=0

Number of revolution, \theta=46=289.02\ rad

We need to find the magnitude of angular acceleration. It can be calculated using third equation of rotational kinematics as :

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{-(366.51)^2}{2\times 289.02}\\\\\alpha =-232.38\ rad/s^2  

So, the magnitude of angular acceleration is 232.38\ rad/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
