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

tester [92]

Answer:

R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m

Explanation:

The important concept of mass center defined by

         R_cm = 1 / M   ∑  x_i m_i

where M is the total mass, x_i and m_i are the position and masses of each body

Let's apply this expression to our case.

Let's set a reference frame where the axis points from the center of the Earth to the Moon,

       R_cm = 1 / M (m_earth 0 + m_moon d)

the total mass is

      M = m_earth + m_moon

     

the distance from the Earth is zero because all mass can be considered to be at its gravimetric center

let's calculate

      M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.35 10²²

      M = 6.0535 10₂⁴24 kg

we substitute

      R_cm = 1 / 6.0535 10²⁴ (0 + 7.35 10²² 3.84 )

      R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

a.\thta=71^{\circ}

b.v_f=3.78 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

m_1=53 kg

v_1=2.9 m/s

m_2= 72 kg

v_2=6.2 m/s

a.We have to find the angle

\theta=tan^{-1}{\frac{m_2v_2}{m_1v_1}=\frac{72(6.2)}{53(2.9)}=71^{\circ}

\theta=71^{\circ}

b. We have to find the speed v_f

According to law of conservation of momentum

m_1v_1=(m_1+m_2)v_fcos\theta

53(2.9)=(53+72)v_fcos 71^{\circ}=40.7 v_f

v_f=\frac{153.7}{40.7}=3.78 m/s
