Two identical masses are connected to two different flywheels that are initially stationary. Flywheel A is larger and has more m

ass, but has hexagonal sections where material has been removed. The attached masses are released from rest and allowed to fall a height h.Which of the following statements about their angular accelerations is true? a. The angular acceleration of the two flywheels is different but it is impossible to tell which is greater. b. The angular acceleration of flywheel A is greater The angular acceleration of flywheel B is greater. c. Not enough information is provided to determine. d. The angular accelerations of the two flywheels are equal.

Answer:

a) True. There is dependence on the radius and moment of inertia, no data is given to calculate the moment of inertia

c) True. Information is missing to perform the calculation

Explanation:

Let's consider solving this exercise before seeing the final statements.

We use Newton's second law Rotational

τ = I α

T r = I α

T gR = I α

Alf = T R / I (1)

T = α I / R

Now let's use Newton's second law in the mass that descends

W- T = m a

a = (m g -T) / m

The two accelerations need related

a = R α

α = a / R

a = (m g - α I / R) / m

R α = g - α I /m R

α (R + I / mR) = g

α = g / R (1 + I / mR²)

We can see that the angular acceleration depends on the radius and the moments of inertia of the steering wheels, the mass is constant

Let's review the claims

a) True. There is dependence on the radius and moment of inertia, no data is given to calculate the moment of inertia

b) False. Missing data for calculation

c) True. Information is missing to perform the calculation

d) False. There is a dependency if the radius and moment of inertia increases angular acceleration decreases

What happens to the object if the line crosses the x-axis from the positive portion of a velocity versus time diagram?

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A velocity time graph shows the change of velocity of an object with respect ot time. If the slope of the graph is increasing in the postive region, it means that the velocity is changing, if the slope is decreasing, it means the the velocity is decreasing, but the object is moving in the same direction (positve direction).

If this slope intersects the graph at x-axis, it means that the body has 0 velocity and has become still. After that, if the line enters in the negative region, it means that its velocity is started to increases again, but the body is movinging in the opposite direction (negative direction)

What might be a reason conflict arises?

Katena32 [7]

D- all of the above

Explanation:

Conflict is a clash between different ideas and people.

It can be as a result of the misunderstanding of another person's point of view. This is one of the leading causes of conflict. A party can take another party's view verbatim without understanding the context behind a reasoning. Through this, conflict can ensue.
It can also be due to non-compatible personalities. This can be between an extrovert and introvert or a blend of them.
Different values can also lead to conflict. It can be a cultural or religious thing.

Two satellites, X and Y, are orbiting Earth. Satellite X is 1.2 × 106 m from Earth, and Satellite Y is 1.9 × 105 m from Earth. W

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: Satellite X has a greater period and a slower tangential speed than Satellite Y

Explanation:

According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion “The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}r^{3}$ (1)

Where;

$G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$ is the Gravitational Constant

$M=5.972(10)^{24}kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$r$ is the semimajor axis of the orbit each satellite describes around Earth (assuming it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)

So for satellite X, the orbital period $T_{X}$ is:

$T_{X}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}r_{X}^{3}$ (2)

Where $r_{X}=1.2(10)^{6}m$

$T_{X}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}(1.2(10)^{6}m)^{3}$ (3)

$T_{X}=413.712 s$ (4)

For satellite Y, the orbital period $T_{Y}$ is:

$T_{Y}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}r_{Y}^{3}$ (5)

Where $r_{Y}=1.9(10)^{5}m$

$T_{Y}^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}(1.9(10)^{5}m)^{3}$ (6)

$T_{Y}=26.064 s$ (7)

This means $T_{X}>T_{Y}$

Now let's calculate the tangential speed for both satellites:

<u>For Satellite X:</u>

$V_{X}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r_{X}}}$ (8)

$V_{X}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}{1.2(10)^{6}m}}$

$V_{X}=18224.783 m/s$ (9)

<u>For Satellite Y:</u>

$V_{Y}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r_{Y}}}$ (10)

$V_{Y}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}{1.9(10)^{5}m}}$

$V_{Y}= 45801.13 m/s$ (11)

This means $V_{Y}>V_{X}$

Therefore:

Satellite X has a greater period and a slower tangential speed than Satellite Y
