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

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a) $v=1.77\times 10^6\ m/s$

b) $v=3.872\times 10^6\ m/s$

c) $v=5.5\times 10^6\ m/s$

d) $v=6.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

e) $v=7.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that

d = 2 cm

V = 200 V

$u=4\times 10^5\ m/s$

We know that

F = E q

F = m a

E = V/d

So

m a = q .V/d b

$a=\dfrac{q.V}{m.d}$ ---------1

The mass of electron

$m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

The charge on electron

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Now by putting the all values in equation 1

$a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 200}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 0.02}\ m/s^2$

$a=1.5\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

We know that

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

a)

s = 0.1 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 0.1\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{3.16\times 10^{12}}\ m/s$

$v=1.77\times 10^6\ m/s$

b)

s = 0.5 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 0.5\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{1.5\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=3.872\times 10^6\ m/s$

c)

s = 1 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 1\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{3.06\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=5.5\times 10^6\ m/s$

d)

s = 1.5 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 1.5\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{4.5\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=6.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

e)

s = 2 cm

$v^2=(4\times 10^5)^2+2\times 1.5\times 10^{15}\times 2\times 10^{-2}$

$v=\sqrt{6.06\times 10^{13}}\ m/s$

$v=7.7\times 10^6\ m/s$

What is inside of a blackhole ?

horsena [70]

We don't know. A black hole is a star that has collapsed into its own gravity. The gravity in fact, is so strong that even light cannot get through it. That's why it looks black to us.
