As the surface given is a smooth surface, we can use specular reflection. According to the law of specular reflection, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection, so it will also be 40°. Answer is A.

irinina [24]

Answer:

$M_{av}=35.521amu$

Explanation:

As in any sample you will have 75.8% of Cl-35 iosotopes and 24.3% of Cl-37 iosotopes you can get the average atomic mass as:

$M_{av}=(35amu*75.8+37amu*24.3)/100=35.521amu$

A merry-go-round of radius R, shown in the figure, is rotating at constant angular speed. The friction in its bearings is so sma

mel-nik [20]

The angular speed of the merry-go-round reduced more as the sandbag is

placed further from the axis than increasing the mass of the sandbag.

The rank from largest to smallest angular speed is presented as follows;

[m = 10 kg, r = 0.25·R]

${}$ ⇩

[m = 20 kg, r = 0.25·R]

${}$ ⇩

[m = 10 kg, r = 0.5·R]

${}$ ⇩

[m = 10 kg, r = 0.5·R] = [m = 40 kg, r = 0.25·R]

${}$ ⇩

[m = 10 kg, r = 1.0·R]

Reasons:

The given combination in the question as obtained from a similar question online are;

1: m = 20 kg, r = 0.25·R

2: m = 10 kg, r = 1.0·R

3: m = 10 kg, r = 0.25·R

4: m = 15 kg, r = 0.75·R

5: m = 10 kg, r = 0.5·R

6: m = 40 kg, r = 0.25·R

According to the principle of conservation of angular momentum, we have;

$I_i \cdot \omega _i = I_f \cdot \omega _f$

The moment of inertia of the merry-go-round, $I_m$ = 0.5·M·R²

Moment of inertia of the sandbag = m·r²

Therefore;

0.5·M·R²· $\omega _i$ = (0.5·M·R² + m·r²)· $\omega _f$

Given that 0.5·M·R²· $\omega _i$ is constant, as the value of m·r² increases, the value of $\omega _f$ decreases.

The values of m·r² for each combination are;

Combination 1: m = 20 kg, r = 0.25·R; m·r² = 1.25·R²

Combination 2: m = 10 kg, r = 1.0·R; m·r² = 10·R²

Combination 3: m = 10 kg, r = 0.25·R; m·r² = 0.625·R²

Combination 4: m = 15 kg, r = 0.75·R; m·r² = 8.4375·R²

Combination 5: m = 10 kg, r = 0.5·R; m·r² = 2.5·R²

Combination 6: m = 40 kg, r = 0.25·R; m·r² = 2.5·R²

Therefore, the rank from largest to smallest angular speed is as follows;

Combination 3 > Combination 1 > Combination 5 = Combination 6 >

Combination 2

Which gives;

[m = 10 kg, r = 0.25·R] > [m = 20 kg, r = 0.25·R] > [m = 10 kg, r = 0.5·R] > [m =

10 kg, r = 0.5·R] = [m = 40 kg, r = 0.25·R] > [m = 10 kg, r = 1.0·R].
