How would a spinning disk's kinetic energy change if its moment of inertia was five times larger but its angular speed was five

times smaller
Physics
1 answer:
Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em>The kinetic energy of a spinning disk will be reduced to a tenth of its initial kinetic energy if its moment of inertia is made five times larger, but its angular speed is made five times smaller.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Let us first consider the initial characteristics of the angular motion of the disk

moment of inertia = I

angular speed = ω

For the second case, we consider the characteristics to now be

moment of inertia = 5I  (five times larger)

angular speed = ω/5  (five times smaller)

Recall that the kinetic energy of a spinning body is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}

therefore,

for the first case, the K.E. is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}

and for the second case, the K.E. is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2}(5I)(\frac{w}{5} )^{2}   = \frac{5}{50}Iw^{2}

KE = \frac{1}{10}Iw^{2}

<em>this is one-tenth the kinetic energy before its spinning characteristics were changed.</em>

<em>This implies that the kinetic energy of the spinning disk will be reduced to a tenth of its initial kinetic energy if its moment of inertia is made five times larger, but its angular speed is made five times smaller.</em>

Calculate the momentum of a 1,500 kg car traveling at 6 m/s.
mamaluj [8]

Answer: 9000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Mass of car = 1500 kg

Speed by which car moves = 6 m/s. Momentum of the car = ?

Recall that:

Linear momentum = Mass x Speed

= 1500kg x 6m/s

= 9000 kgm/s

Thus, the linear momentum of the car is 9000 kgm/s

How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16
Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by  ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by    ( 1 / √16 )  =  ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to  1/4  of what it is now.

A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere
dmitriy555 [2]

Question: A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere, What is thier velocities after collision.

Answer:

v = 6 m/s, v' = 0 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

For Elastic collision,

mu+m'u' = mv+m'v'......................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, v = final veolocity of the first sphere, v' = final velocity of the second sphere.

Also,

The relative velocity before collision = relative velocity after collision

u-u' = v-v'............................ Equation 2

Given:  m = 2 kg, m' = 10 kg, u = 6 m/s, u' = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 1 and 2

2(6)+10(0) = 2v+10v'

2v+10v' = 12.............. Equation 3

6-0 = v-v'

v-v' = 6 ................... Equation 4

Solve equation 3 and 4 simultaneously.

v = 6+v'............. Equation 5

Substitute equation 5 into equation 3

2(6+v')+10v' = 12

12+2v'+10v' = 12

12v' = 12-12

v' = 0/12

v' = 0 m/s.

Also substitute the value of v' into equation 5

v = 6+0

v = 6 m/s
