Complete Question:

A uniform rod of mass 1.90 kg and length 2.00 m is capable of rotating about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its length. A mass m1 = 5.40 kgis  attached to one end and a second mass m2 = 2.50 kg is attached to the other end of the rod. Treat the two masses as point particles.

(a) What is the moment of inertia of the system?

(b) If the rod rotates with an angular speed of 2.70 rad/s, how much kinetic energy does the system have?

(c) Now consider the rod to be of negligible mass. What is the moment of inertia of the rod and masses combined?

(d) If the rod is of negligible mass, what is the kinetic energy when the angular speed is 2.70 rad/s?

Answer:

a) 8.53 kg*m² b) 31.1 J c) 7.9 kg*m² d) 28.8 J

Explanation:

a) If we treat to the two masses as point particles, the rotational inertia of each mass will be the product of the mass times the square of the distance to the axis of rotation, which is exactly the half of the length of the rod.

As the mass has not negligible mass, we need to add the rotational inertia of the rod regarding an axis passing through its centre, and perpendicular to its length.

The total rotational inertia will be as follows:

I = M*L²/12 + m₁*r₁² + m₂*r₂²

⇒ I =( 1.9kg*(2.00)²m²/12) + 5.40 kg*(1.00)²m² + 2.50 kg*(1.00)m²

⇒ I =  8.53 kg*m²

b)  The rotational kinetic energy of the rigid body composed by the rod and  the point masses m₁ and m₂, can be expressed as follows:

Krot = 1/2*I*ω²

if ω= 2.70 rad/sec, and I = 8.53 kg*m², we can calculate Krot as follows:

Krot = 1/2*(8.53 kg*m²)*(2.70)²(rad/sec)²

⇒ Krot = 31.1 J

c) If the mass of the rod is negligible, we can remove its influence of the rotational inertia, as follows:

I = m₁*r₁² + m₂*r₂² = 5.40 kg*(1.00)²m² + 2.50 kg*(1.00)m²

I = 7.90 kg*m²

d) The new rotational kinetic energy will be as follows:

Krot = 1/2*I*ω² = 1/2*(7.9 kg*m²)*(2.70)²(rad/sec)²

Krot= 28.8 J

Vlad [161]

B. Energy

A power company charges its customers for electricity based upon B. Energy.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Kilo-watt Hours (kWh) is the unit that measures the electricity consumption of customers. Since Power is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred by an electrical circuit per unit time,

P = \frac{E}{t} \\E= P\times t

If energy is transmitted at a constant rate over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt hours is the product of power in kilowatts(kW) and time in hours (h)

1\ kWh = 3.6\times 10^6\ Joules

A compound consisting of only phosphorous and oxygen atoms is 43.64 % phosphorus by mass.The molecular mass/formula weight of th
DanielleElmas [232]
First, we calculate the mass of Phosphorous present:
283.88 x 0.4364
= 123.88 amu
Atomic mass of P is 31 amu

moles of P = mass / Ar
= 123.88 / 31
= 4.0 moles

We know that one mole of substance has 6.02 x 10²³ particles
Atoms of P = 4 x 6.02 x 10²³ 
= 2.41 x 10²⁴ atoms

A projectile enters a resisting medium at x = 0 with an initial velocity v0 = 910 ft/s and travels 5 in. before coming to rest.
evablogger [386]

Answer:

a = - 1.987 × 10⁶ ft/s²

t = 6.84 × 10⁻⁴ s

Explanation:

v₀ = 910 ft/s

x = 5 in.

relation v = v₀ - k x

v = 0 as body comes to rest

0 = 900 - 5k/12

k = 2184 s⁻¹

acceleration

\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t} = -k\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

where

(A) a = -k × v

 at v= 910 ft/s

     a = - 1.987 × 10⁶ ft/s²

(B)  at x = 3.9 in.

v = 910 - 3.9(2184)/12

v = 200.2 m/s

\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t} = -k\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{dv}{v} = -kdt

\int\limits^{200.2}_{900} {\frac{1}{v} }dv = -k\int\limits^t_0 dt

ln(200.2)-ln(900) = -kt

t = 6.84 × 10⁻⁴ s
