After the two plates Collide the amount of tension is what makes the two plates slip. When two plates slip the Earths surface begins to move because of the slipping of the plates thats when we feel an earth quake. After the earth quake is finshed the tension between the two plates happen again so the Earths surface may be cracked as a result of the immense slipping. But the tension will happen again and devolpe slowly over time. Intill it happens again almost like a cycle

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The angular speed of the new system is 3\,\frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

Due to the absence of external forces between both disks, the Principle of Angular Momentum Conservation is observed. Since axes of rotation of each disk coincide with each other, the principle can be simplified into its scalar form. The magnitude of the Angular Momentum is equal to the product of the moment of inertial and angular speed. When both disks begin to rotate, moment of inertia is doubled and angular speed halved. That is:

I\cdot \omega_{o} = 2\cdot I \cdot \omega_{f}

Where:

I - Moment of inertia of a disk, measured in kilogram-square meter.

\omega_{o} - Initial angular speed, measured in radians per second.

\omega_{f} - Final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

This relationship is simplified and final angular speed can be determined in terms of initial angular speed:

\omega_{f} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \omega_{o}

Given that \omega_{o} = 6\,\frac{rad}{s}, the angular speed of the new system is:

\omega_{f} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(6\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)

\omega_{f} = 3\,\frac{rad}{s}

The angular speed of the new system is 3\,\frac{rad}{s}.

What is the relation between inertia and mass?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion varies with mass. Mass is that quantity that is solely dependent upon the inertia of an object. The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.
