A solid metal sphere of diameter D is spinning in a gravity-free region of space with an angular velocity of ω. The sphere is sl

owly heated until it reaches its melting temperature, at which point it flattens into a uniform disk of thickness D/2. By what factor is the angular velocity changed?

Explanation:

It is given that, a solid metal sphere of diameter D is spinning in a gravity-free region of space with an angular velocity of ω.The sphere is slowly heated until it reaches its melting temperature, at which point it flattens into a uniform disk of thickness D/2.

The angular momentum remains conserved in this case. The relation between the angular momentum and the angular velocity is given by :

I_s\times \omega_s=I_d\times \omega_d

Where

I_s\ and\ I_d are moment of inertia of sphere and the disk respectively

Here, volume before = volume after

\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (D/2)^3=\pi r^2\times D/2

r=\dfrac{D}{\sqrt{3} }=0.577\ D

Initial angular momentum,

L_i=I_s\times \omega_s

L_i=\dfrac{2mr^2}{5}\times \omega_s

L_i=\dfrac{2m(D/2)^2}{5}\times \omega_s

L_i=\dfrac{2mD^2}{20}\times \omega_s..........(1)

Final angular momentum,

L_d=I_f\times \omega_d

L_d=\dfrac{2mr^2}{5}\times \omega_d

L_d=\dfrac{2m(0.577D)^2}{5}\times \omega_d............(2)

From equation (1) and (2) :

\dfrac{2mD^2}{20}\times \omega_s=\dfrac{2m(0.577D)^2}{5}\times \omega_d

\dfrac{\omega_d}{\omega_s}=0.75

Hence, this is the required solution.

Ber [7]
He thermal velocity or thermal speed is a typical velocity of the thermal motion of particles which make up a gas, liquid, etc. Thus, indirectly, thermal velocity is a measure of temperature. Technically speaking it is a measure of the width of the peak in the Maxwell–Boltzmann particle velocity distribution.

An electron in a vacuum is first accelerated by a voltage of 51400 V and then enters a region in which there is a uniform magnet
zimovet [89]

Answer:

       F = 8.6 10⁻¹² N

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the law of conservation of energy

Initial. Field energy with the electron at rest

         Em₀ = U = q ΔV

Final. Electron with velocity, just out of the electric field

         Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          e ΔV = ½ m v²

          v =√ 2 e ΔV / m

          v = √(2 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 51400 / 9.1 10⁻³¹)

           v = √(1.8075 10¹⁶)

           v = 1,344 10⁸ m / s

Now we can use the equation of the magnetic force

         F = q v x B

Since the speed and the magnetic field are perpendicular the force that

        F = e v B

        F = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹  1.344 10⁸ 0.4

       For this exercise we use the law of conservation of energy

Initial. Field energy with the electron at rest

         Emo = U = q DV

Final. Electron with velocity, just out of the electric field

         Emf = K = ½ m v2

          Emo = Emf

          .e DV = ½ m v2

          .v = RA 2 e DV / m

          .v = RA (2 1.6 10-19 51400 / 9.1 10-31)

           .v = RA (1.8075 10 16)

           .v = 1,344 108 m / s

Now we can use the equation of the magnetic force

         F = q v x B

Since the speed and the magnetic field are perpendicular the force that

        F = e v B

       F = 1.6 10-19 1,344 108 0.4

       F = 8.6 10-12 N

A concave spherical mirror has a radius of curvature of magnitude 20.0 cm. (a) Find the location of the image for object distanc
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

The radius of curvature of the mirror R = 20 cm

then the focal length f = R/2 = 10 cm

(a) From mirror formula

 1/f = 1/di + /1do

then the image distance

    di = fd_o / d_o - f

  = (10)(40) / 40-10

 = 30.76 cm

since the image distance is positive so the image is real

ii) when the object distance d_0=20 cm

 di = 10×20/ 20-10

= 20

Hence, the image must be  real

iii)when the object distance d_0 = 10

di = 10×10 / 10-10 =  ∞ (infinite)

the image will be formed at ∞

here also image will be real but diminished.
