According to the Guinness Book of World Records (1999) the highest rotary speed ever attained was 2010 m/s (4500 mph) The rotati

ng rod was 15.3 cm long. Assume that the speed quoted is that of the end of the rod. a. What is the centripetal acceleration of the end of the rod? (2.64 x 107 m/s2) b. If you were to attach a 1.0 g object to the end of the rod, what force would be needed to hold it on the rod?

Answer:

a. 2.645 * 10^7 m/s^2

b. 2.645 * 10^4 N

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Velocity of rod = 2010m/s

Length of rod = 15.3cm = 0.153m

Mass of object placed at the end of the rod = 1g = 0.001kg

a. Centripetal acceleration is given as:

a = (v*v)/r

Where v = velocity

r = radius of curvature.

The radius of curvature in this case is equal to the length of the rod, since the rod makes the circular path of the motion.

Hence, centripetal acceleration at the end of the rod:

a = (2010*2010)/(0.153)

a = 26432156.86 m/s^2 = 2.64 * 10^7 m/s

b. The force needed to hold the object at the end of the rod is equal to the centripetal force at the end of the rod. Centripetal force is given as:

F = ma = (m*v*v)/r

Where a = centripetal acceleration

F = 0.001 * 2.64 * 10^7

F = 2.64 * 10^4N

A proton that has a mass m and is moving at +164 m/s undergoes a head-on elastic collision with a stationary carbon nucleus of m
Irina18 [472]
The concept of this problem is the Law of Conservation of Momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. To obey the law, the momentum before and after collision should be equal:

m₁ v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂', where
m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the proton and the carbon nucleus, respectively,
v₁ and v₂ are the velocities of the proton and the carbon nucleus before collision, respectively,
v₁' and v₂' are the velocities of the proton and the carbon nucleus after collision, respectively,

m(164) + 12m(0) = mv₁' + 12mv₂'
164 = v₁' + 12v₂'  --> equation 1

The second equation is the coefficient of restitution, e, which is equal to 1 for perfect collision. The equation is

(v₂' - v₁')/(v₁ - v₂) = 1
(v₂' - v₁')/(164 - 0) = 1
v₂' - v₁'=164 ---> equation 2

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously, v₁' =  -138.77 m/s and v₂' = +25.23 m/s. This means that after the collision, the proton bounced to the left at 138.77 m/s, while the stationary carbon nucleus move to the right at 25.23 m/s.

pentagon [3]

I'm assuming you want the first law of thermodynamics.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy and cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and can be converted into other forms of energy.
