Your friend is constructing a balancing display for an art project. She has one rock on the left ( ms=2.25 kgms=2.25 kg ) and th

ree on the right (total mass mp=10.1 kgmp=10.1 kg ). The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is rp=0.360 m.rp=0.360 m. Answer the two questions below, using three significant digits. Part A: What is the value of the torque ( ????pτp ) produced by the pile of rocks? (Enter a positive value.)

Answer:

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.

Explanation:

Given details:

The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg

The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg

The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m

(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp

Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).

Two atoms with different mass number but the same atomic number are called A) elements. B) ions. C) isotopes. D) nuclei.
saw5 [17]

C isotopes is the correct answer. Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number.All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.  

Hope this helps! :)

A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff above the ground level with initial velocity of at an angle with the horizontal. (
Xelga [282]

Answer:

t = √2y/g

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch exercise

a) The vertical velocity in the initial instants (v_{oy} = 0) zero, so let's use the equation

     y =v_{oy} t -1/2 g t²

     y= - ½ g t²

     t = √2y/g

b) Let's use this time and the horizontal displacement equation, because the constant horizontal velocity

     x = vox t

     x = v₀ₓ √2y/g

c) Speeds before touching the ground

     vₓ = vox = constant

     v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

     v_{y} = 0 - g √2y/g

    v_{y}  = - √2gy

    tan θ = Vy / vx

    θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

    θ = tan⁻¹ (√2gy / vox)

d) The projectile is higher than the cliff because it is a horizontal launch

An old grindstone, used for sharpening tools, is a solid cylindrical wheel that can rotate about its central axle with negligibl
krok68 [10]

(a) The moment of inertia of the wheel  is 78.2 kgm².

(b) The mass (in kg) of the wheel is 1,436.2 kg.

(c) The angular speed (in rad/s) of the wheel at the end of this time period is 3.376 rad/s.

<h3>Moment of inertia of the wheel</h3>

Apply principle of conservation of angular momentum;

Fr = Iα

where;

  • F is applied force
  • r is radius of the cylinder
  • α is angular acceleration
  • I is moment of inertia

I = Fr/α

I = (200 x 0.33) / (0.844)

I = 78.2 kgm²

<h3>Mass of the wheel</h3>

I = ¹/₂MR²

where;

  • M is mass of the solid cylinder
  • R is radius of the solid cylinder
  • I is moment of inertia of the solid cylinder

2I = MR²

M = 2I/R²

M = (2 x 78.2) / (0.33²)

M = 1,436.2 kg

<h3>Angular speed of the wheel after 4 seconds</h3>

ω = αt

ω = 0.844 x 4

ω = 3.376 rad/s

Thus, the moment of inertia of the wheel  is 78.2 kgm².

The mass (in kg) of the wheel is 1,436.2 kg.

The angular speed (in rad/s) of the wheel at the end of this time period is 3.376 rad/s.
