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

Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago

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>

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Vmax=11.53 m/s

Explanation:

from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{B}

     Spring potential energy =potential energy due to elevation

   0.5*k*x²= mg(h_{B}-h_{A} )=mgh

   0.5*k*2.3²= 430*9.81*6

         k=9568.92 N/m

For safety reason

                                 k"=1.13 *k= 1.13*9568.92

                                    k"=10812.88 N/m

agsin from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{C}

    spring potential energy=change in kinetic energy

   0.5*k"*x²=0.5*m*V_{max}^{2}

      10812.88 *2.3²=430*V_{max}^{2}

           V_{max}=11.53 m/s

A professional racecar driver buys a car that can accelerate at 5.9 m/s2. The racer decides to race against another driver in a
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) Time will be t = 3.56 sec

(b) Distance traveled by car when they are side by side is 37.38712 m

(b) Velocity of race car = 21.004 m/sec

velocity of stock car = 12.816 m/sec            

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car a_1=5.9m/sec^2

Acceleration of the stock car a_2=3.6m/sec^2

When 1st car overtakes the second car then distance traveled by both the car will be same

(a) So s_1=s_2

As both car starts from rest so initial velocity of both car will be 0 m/sec

It is given that stock car leaves 1 sec before

So \frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times (t+1)^2\times 3.6

After solving t = 3.56 sec

(b) From second equation of motion s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times 3.56^2=37.38712m

(c) From first equation pf motion v = u+at

So velocity of race car v = 0+5.9×3.56 = 21.004 m/sec

Velocity of stock car v = 0+ 3.6×3.56 = 12.816 m/sec

The formula for average​ speed is S=D/T

1. S=72m/37s

Divide

S= 1.94

Kira's average speed is 1.94m/s.

2. S=7.5km / 1.5h

S=5

Your average speed is 5km/h

3. S=1260km/3.5h

S=360

The airplanes average speed is 360km/h

A 594 Ω resistor, an uncharged 1.3 μF capacitor, and a 6.53 V emf are connected in series. What is the current in milliamps afte
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

6.88 mA

Explanation:

Given:

Resistance, R = 594 Ω

Capacitance = 1.3 μF

emf, V = 6.53 V

Time, t = 1 time constant

Now,

The initial current, I₀ = \frac{\textup{V}}{\textup{R}}

or

I₀ = \frac{\textup{6.53}}{\textup{594}}

or

I₀ = 0.0109 A

also,

I = I_0[1-e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}]

here,

τ = time constant

e = 2.717

on substituting the respective values, we get

I = 0.0109[1-e^{-\frac{\tau}{\tau}}]

or

I = 0.0109[1-2.717^{-1}]

or

I = 0.00688 A

or

I = 6.88 mA

In general, the-------- the string or air column of a musical instrument is, the more harmonics are generated. shorter or longer
yanalaym [24]
Longer the air column is the more harmonics are created. due to the longer column the waves have more space to bounce off of the sides of the column to create more harmonics.
