This problem describes an experimental method for determining the moment of inertia of an irregular shaped object such as the pa

yload for a satellite. A counter weight of mass m, is suspended by a cord wound around a spool of radius r, forming part of a turntable supporting the object. The turntable can rotate w/o friction. When the counterweight is released from rest it descends through a distance h, acquiring a speed v. Show that the moment of inertia I of the rotating apparatus is mr2 (2gh/v2 – 1).

Answer:

Explanation:

 The turntable that is rotating apparatus whose moment of inertia ( I )  is to be calculated is used as a spool of radius r. m mass is going down with acceleration a and rotating the apparatus with the help of cord with tension T  wound around it

For motion of weight m

mg - T = ma

and for the motion of spool or apparatus

Tr = I a/r

T = Ia/r²

mg - Ia/r²  = ma

mg   =  Ia/r² + ma

a (  I/r² + m ) = mg

When  the counterweight m  is released from rest it descends through a distance h, acquiring a speed v

v² = 2ah

a = v² / 2h

v² / 2h  (  I/r² + m ) = mg

(  I/r² + m ) = 2mgh / v²

 I/r²  = 2mgh / v²-  m

I = r² (2mgh / v²-  m )

= mr² ( 2gh/ v² -1 )

If the mass of a 1.8 g paperclip was able to be completely converted to energy, how much energy would you obtain?
Anton [14]

Answer:

E=1.62\times 10^{14}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the paperclip, m = 1.8 g = 0.0018 kg

We need to find the energy obtained. The relation between mass and energy is given by :

E=mc^2

Where

c is the speed of light

So,

E=0.0018\times (3\times 10^8)^2\\\\E=1.62\times 10^{14}\ J

So, the energy obtained is 1.62\times 10^{14}\ J.

a container of water is knocked off a 10.0 meter high ledge with a horizontal velocity of 1.00 meters/second. calculate the time
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.43 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.

The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

S=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u = 0 is the initial vertical speed

t is the time

a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

since u=0, it can be rewritten as

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10.0 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.43 s

Normal body temperature. the average normal body temperature measured in the mouth is 310 k . what would celsius and fahrenheit
faltersainse [42]
The question is simply asking us to convert one unit, in this case temperature, to another unit. To do this, we need conversion factors to multiply, divide or relate to the original measurement. We do as follows:

Celsius = Kelvin - 273.15
310 - 273.15 = 36.85 degrees celsius

Fahrenheit = <span> (°</span>C<span> × </span>9<span>/5) + 32
</span> (36.85<span> × </span>9<span>/5) + 32 = 98.33 degrees fahrenheit
</span>
Hope this helps.
