Answer:

The torque is 26.75 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 0.97 kg

Length = 97 cm

Time = 0.20 s

Angular speed \omega= 2.8 rev/s = 2.8\times2\pi\ rad/s

We need to calculate the moment of inertia of rod at one end

Using formula of the moment of inertia

I=\dfrac{Ml^2}{3}

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{0.97\times(0.97\times10^{-2})^2}{3}

I=0.3042\ kg m^2

We need to calculate the angular acceleration

Using formula of angular acceleration

\alpha=\dfrac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

Put the value into the formula

\alpha=\dfrac{2.8\times2\pi}{0.20}

\alpha=87.964\ rad/s^2

We need to calculate the torque

Using formula of torque

\tau=I\times\alpha

Put the value into the formula

\tau=0.3042\times87.964

\tau=26.75\ N-m

Hence, The torque is 26.75 N-m.

Answer:

Applied torque, T = 26.74 N-m

Given:

Mass of rod, M = 0.97 kg

Length of the rod, L = 97 cm = 0.97 m

Change in angular velocity, \Delta \omega = 2.8 rev/s = 2.8\times 2\pi = 17.59 rad/s

time, t = 0.20 s

Solution:

Now, we know that torque is given by:

T = I\alpha                          (1)

where

I = moment of inertia of the rod

\alpha  = angular acceleration

Using perpendicular axis formula to calculate the moment of inertia:

I = \frac{ML^{2}}{12}                    

Now, the base ball bat will be held from one end, therefore,  the moment of inertia about the axis at the end is given by:

I = \frac{ML^{2}}{12} + \frac{ML^{2}}{4} = \frac{ML^{2}}{3}

I = \frac{0.97\times (0.97)^{2}}{3} = 0.304 kg-m^{2}

Now, angular acceleration can be calculated as:

\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{t} = \frac{17.59}{0.20} = 87.95 rad/s^{2}

Now, calculation of torque using eqn (1):

T = 0.304\times 87.95 = 26.74 N-m

A pipe of length 6.8 m is closed at one end and sustains a standing wave at its second overtone. determine the distance between
r-ruslan [8.4K]
For a pipe closed at one end, the second overtone is the 3rd natural frequency as shown in the diagram.

For the fundamental frequency,
λ = 4L
where
λ = wavelength
L = the length of the tube

For the second overtone (3rd frequency)
λ = (4/3)L

Because L = 6.8 m, therefore
λ = (4/3)*(6.8 m) = 9.0667 m

The distance between a node and an adjacent antinode is λ/2, which is
9.0667/2 = 4.533 m

Answer: 4.5 m

Flash floods can cause vehicles to float and fill with water, trapping and drowning people. while especially dangerous at night
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Flash flood refers to the sudden flood that occurs in a particular area due to the heavy and excessive amount of rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms within a few hours. It releases a huge amount of water due to the failure of natural levee as well dam. They are very devastating. During flash flood, the water exerts a massive force which can make vehicles float over water. The <u>six inches of water</u> that flows over an area has the capacity to lift the tyres of small vehicles and carry hem further away.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
