A uniform rod of length L rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod pivots about a fixed frictionless axis at one end.

The rod is initially at rest. A bullet traveling parallel to the horizontal surface and perpendicular to the rod with speed v strikes the rod at its center and becomes embedded in it. The mass of the bullet is one-fourth the mass of the rod. What is thefinal angular speed of the rod?

Answer: a) 0.315 (V/L)

Explanation:

From Conservation of angular momentum, we know that

L1 = L2 ,

Therefore MV L/2 = ( Irod + Ib) x W

M/4 x V x L/2 = (M (L/2)^2 + 1/3xMxL^2) x W

M/8 X VL = (ML^2/16 + ML^2 /3 )

After elimination we have,

V/8 = 19/48 x L x W

W = 48/8 x V/19L = 6/19 x V/L

Therefore W = (0.136)X V/L

What is difference between kilowatt and kilowatt hour?
Scrat [10]
Those two units can be compared to a 'mile per hour' and a 'mile per hour - hour'.
One is a rate.  The other is a quantity, after maintaining a rate for some time.

-- 'Joule' is a unit of energy.  It's the amount of work (energy) you do
when you push with a force of 1 newton though a distance of 1 meter.
Lifting 10 pound of beans 3 feet off the floor takes about 40.7 joules of energy.

-- 'Watt' is a <u><em>rate</em></u> of using energy . . . 1 joule per second.
If you lift 10 pounds 3 feet off the floor in 1 second, your <em>power</em> is 40.7 watts.

-- 'Watt-second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 1 joule.

-- 'Watt-hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 3,600 joules.

-- 'Kilowatt' is a bigger <em>rate</em> of using energy . . . 1,000 joules per second.

-- 'Kilowatt - second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 1,000 joules .

-- 'Kilowatt - hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 3,600,000 joules .

Depending on where you live, 3,600,000 joules of energy bought
from the electric company costs something between 5¢ and 25¢.

a spaceship, at rest in a certain reference frame s, is given a speed increment of 0.500c. it is then given a further 0.500c inc
bezimeni [28]

In order to give a spaceship at rest in a specific reference frame s a speed increment of 0.500c, seven increments are required. Then, in this new frame, it receives an additional 0.500c increment.

The speed of an object, also known as v in kinematics, is a scalar quantity that refers to the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time. The distance travelled by an object in a certain period of time divided by the length of the period gives the object's average speed in that period.

The spacecraft moves at v1 = 0.5c after the initial increment.The equation becomes V2 = V+V1/1+V*V1/c after the second one. 2 V2 = 0.5c+0.50c/1+(0.50c)^2/c^ 2 = 0.80c

Likewise, V3 = 0.929c

V4 = 0.976c

V5 = 0.992c

V6 = 0.99c

V7 = 0.999c
