A large stick is pivoted about one end and allowed to swing back and forth with no friction as a physical pendulum. The mass of

the stick is 4.8 kg and its center of gravity (found by finding its balance point) is 1.4 m from the pivot. If the period of the swinging stick is 9 seconds, what is the moment of inertia of the stick about an axis through the pivot

Answer:

I = 94.33 kg m^2

Explanation:

Let say the rod is slightly pulled away from its equilibrium position

So here net torque on the rod due to its weight is given as

\tau = mg dsin\theta

since rod is pivoted at distance of 1.4 m from centre of gravity

so its moment of inertia about pivot point is given as

Inertia = I

now we have

I \alpha = mg d sin\theta

now for small angular displacement we will have

\alpha = \frac{mgd}{I}\theta

so angular frequency of SHM is given as

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{mgd}{I}}

now we will have

\frac{2\pi}{9} = \sqrt{\frac{4.8(9.8)1.4}{I}

I = 94.33 kg m^2

A skydiver of mass 80kg jumps from a slow moving aircraft and reach a terminal speed of 50 m/s. What's her acceleration when her
miskamm [114]

Answer:

a = g = 9.81[m/s^2]

Explanation:

This problem can be solve using the second law of Newton.

We know that the forces acting over the skydiver are only his weight, and it is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration.

m*g = m*a

where:

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

Note: If the skydiver will be under air resistance forces his acceleration will be different.
