Delivery trucks that operate by making use of energy stored in a rotating flywheel have been used in Europe. The trucks are char

ged by using an electric motor to get the flywheel up to its top speed of 940 rad/s. One such flywheel is a solid homogenous cylinder, rotating about its central axis, with a mass of 630 kg and a radius of 1.35 m. What is the kinetic energy of the flywheel after charging?

Answer:

KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

Explanation:

given,

angular speed of the fly wheel = 940 rad/s

mass of the cylinder = 630 Kg

radius = 1.35 m

KE of flywheel = ?

moment of inertia of the cylinder

$I = \dfrac{1}{2}mr^2$

= $\dfrac{1}{2}\times 630\times 1.35^2$

= 574 kg m²

kinetic energy of the fly wheel

$KE = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

$KE =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 574\times 940^2$

KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

the kinetic energy of the flywheel is equal to KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

A cyclist is riding a bicycle at a speed of 22 mph on a horizontal road. The distance between the axles is 42 in., and the mass

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The shortest distance is $S = 24.86 ft$

Explanation:

The free body diagram of this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

The speed of the bicycle is $v_b = 22\ mph = 22 * \frac{5280}{3600} = 32.26 ft/s$

The distance between the axial is $d = 42 \ in$

The mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is $m_c = 26 \ in$ behind the front axle

The mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is $m_h = 40 \ in$ above the ground

For the bicycle not to be thrown over the

Momentum about the back wheel must be zero so

$\sum _B = 0$

=> $mg (26) = ma(40)$

=> $a = \frac{26}{40} g$

Here $g = 32.2 ft/s^2$

So $a = \frac{26}{40} (32.2)$

$a = 20.93 ft/s^2$

Apply the equation of motion to this motion we have

$v^2 = u^2 + 2as$

Where $u = 32.26 ft /s$

and $v = 0$ since the bicycle is coming to a stop

$v^2 = (32.26)^2 - 2(20.93) S$

=> $S = 24.86 ft$

Does specific heat of a substance depend on its temperature?

lara [203]

Answer:

temperature

Explanation:

In general, the specific heat also depends on the temperature. The table below lists representative values of specific heat for various substances. Except for gases, the temperature and volume dependence of the specific heat of most substances is weak.

An electron in an atom has an uncertainty of 0.2 nm. If it is doubled to 0.4 nm by what factor does the uncertainty in momentum

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The uncertainty in momentum changes by a factor of 1/2.

Explanation:

By Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, ΔpΔx ≥ h/2π where Δp = uncertainty in momentum and Δx = uncertainty in position = 0.2 nm. The uncertainty in momentum is thus Δp ≥ h/2πΔx. If the uncertainty in position is doubled, that is Δx₁ = 2Δx = 0.4 nm, the uncertainty in momentum Δp₁ now becomes Δp₁ ≥ h/2πΔx₁ = h/2π(2Δx) = (h/2πΔx)/2 = Δp/2.

So, the uncertainty in momentum changes by a factor of 1/2.

A 68 kg object, starting from rest, travels from point A to point B at a rate of 30 m/s in 2 hours. What is the applied force on

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf F = 0.28\ N}$

Explanation:

<h3>Given Data:</h3>

Mass = m = 68 kg

Velocity = v = 30 m/s

Time = 2 hours = 2 × 60 × 60 = 7200 s

<h3>Required:</h3>

Force = F = ?

<h3>Formula to be used:</h3>

$\displaystyle F = \frac{mv}{t}$

<h3>Solution:</h3>

$\displaystyle F = \frac{(68)(30)}{7200} \\\\F = \frac{2040}{7200} \\\\F = 0.28 N\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}$
