A man stands on a platform that is rotating at 3.8 rpm; his arms are outstretched and he holds a brick in each hand. The rotatio

nal inertia of the system consisting of the man, bricks, and platform about the central axis of the platform is 4.65 kg-m². By moving the bricks the man decreases the rotational inertia of the system to 3.4 kg-m².
(a) what is the resulting angular speed of the platform and
(b) what is the ratio of the new kinetic energy of the system to the original kinetic energy?

Answer:

a) 5.197rev/s

b) Kf/Ki =2.28

Explanation:

a) Angular momentum of the system L = Iw

ButLi=Lf

Kiwi =Ifwf

wf = (Ii/If)will = (4.65/3.4)×3.8=5.197rev/s

b)Kinetic energy KE= 0.5Iw^2

Ki = 0.5Iiwi^2

Kf=0.5Ifwf^2

Kf/Ki = Ifwf/Iiwi

Kf/Ki = (4.65/3.4))(5.197/3.8)

Kf/Ki = 1.22(1.368)^2

Kf/Ki = 2.28

A 980 kg roller coaster cart is traveling along a track at 17 m/s before it rolls down a 30 m tall hill (Point A). What will be
MrRissso [65]

The kinetic energy halfway the hill is 2.86\cdot 10^5 J

Explanation:

If there are no friction forces acting on the cart, we can apply the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the cart (which is the sum of potential energy + kinetic energy) must be conserved. So we can write:

U_A +K_A = U_B + K_B

where

U_A=mgh_A is the initial potential energy, at point A, with

m = 980 kg (mass of the cart)

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

h_A = 30 m (height at point A)

K_A=\frac{1}{2}mv_A^2 is the initial kinetic energy, at point A , with

v_A=17 m/s (velocity at point A)

U_B=mgh_B is the final potential energy, at point B, where

h_B = 15 m (height at point B)

K_B=\frac{1}{2}mv_B^2 is the final kinetic energy, at point B, where

v_B is the velocity at point B

Here we are interested in finding K_B, so by re-arranging the equation and substituting we find:

K_B = U_A+K_B-U_B = mg(h_A-h_B)+\frac{1}{2}mv_A^2=(980)(9.8)(30-15)+\frac{1}{2}(980)(17)^2=2.86\cdot 10^5 J

A 48.0-kg skater is standing at rest in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocit
Kipish [7]

Answer:

F = 47.6 N

Explanation:

  • Newton's 2nd law can be expressed as the rate of change of the total momentum, respect of time, as follows:

       F = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

  • So, in order to find the average force exerted by the skater on the wall, we can find the change in momentum due to the force exerted by the wall (which is equal and opposite to the one exerted by the skater), and  divide it by the time interval , as follows:

       F_{wall} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{(48.0 kg*(-1.06m/s)}{1.07s} = -47.6 N

       ⇒ Fsk = 47.6 N (normal to the wall)
