What is the distance from axis about which a uniform, balsa-wood sphere will have the same moment of inertia as does a thin-wall

ed, hollow, lead sphere of the same mass and radius R, with the axis along a diameter, to the center of the balsa-wood sphere?

Answer:

D_{s} ≈ 2.1 R

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of the bodies can be calculated by the equation

     I = ∫ r² dm

For bodies with symmetry this tabulated, the moment of inertia of the center of mass

Sphere               Is_{cm} = 2/5 M R²

Spherical shell   Ic_{cm} = 2/3 M R²

The parallel axes theorem allows us to calculate the moment of inertia with respect to different axes, without knowing the moment of inertia of the center of mass

    I = I_{cm} + M D²

Where M is the mass of the body and D is the distance from the center of mass to the axis of rotation

Let's start with the spherical shell, axis is along a diameter

     D = 2R

    Ic = Ic_{cm} + M D²

    Ic = 2/3 MR² + M (2R)²

    Ic = M R² (2/3 + 4)

    Ic = 14/3 M R²

The sphere

    Is =Is_{cm} + M [D_{s}²

    Is = Ic

    2/5 MR² + M D_{s}² = 14/3 MR²

    D_{s}² = R² (14/3 - 2/5)

    D_{s} = √ (R² (64/15)

    D_{s} = 2,066 R

The thermal conductivity of a sheet of rigid, extruded insulation is reported to be k=0.029 W/m.K. The measured temperature diff
klasskru [66]

Answer:

flux=13.92W/m^2

Explanation:

The heat transfer by conduction consists in the transport of energy through particles that are together, that is to say by means of solids, Newton developed an equation that allows to know the heat transported in a flat plate knowing the cross sectional area A, Thickness L, conductivity  K  and a temperature difference between the internal and external surface.

Q=KA(t2-t1)/L

To know the heat flux we simply divide both sides of the equation by the area.

Flux=K(t2-t1)/L

where

K=0.029w/mk

L=25mm=0.025m

t2-t1=12 ° C

solving

Flux=(0.029)(12)/(0.025)

flux=13.92W/m^2

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The correct solution is:

(a) 1.375\times 10^{-2} \ J

(b) 4.43\times 10^{-3} \ C

(c) 1.42\times 10^{-3} \ F

(d) 178.57 \ \Omega

Explanation:

The given values are:

Effective duration of the flash,

ζ = 0.25 s

Average power,

P_{avg}=55 \ mW

       =55\times 10^{-3} \ W

Average voltage,

V_{avg}=3.1 \ V

Now,

(a)

⇒ E=P_{avg}\times \zeta

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =55\times 10^{-3}\times 0.25

⇒     =1.375\times 10^{-2} \ J

(b)

⇒ E=Q\times V_{avg}

then,

⇒ Q=\frac{E}{V_{avg}}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =\frac{1.375\times 10^{-2}}{3.1}

⇒     =4.43\times 10^{-3} \ C

(c)

⇒ C=\frac{Q}{V}

⇒     =\frac{4.43\times 10^{-3}}{3.1}

⇒     =1.42\times 10^{-3} \ F

(d)

As we know,

⇒ R=\frac{1}{4C}

⇒     =\frac{1}{4\times 1.42\times 10^{-3}}

⇒     =\frac{1000}{5.6}

⇒     =178.57 \ \Omega
