A uniform cylinder of radius 25 cm and mass 27 kg is mounted so as to rotate freely about a horizontal axis that is parallel to
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

                                                     STEP 1

<u>Given</u>

Radius of cylinder = r = 25cm, 2.5m

mass = 27kg

cylinder is mounted so as to rotate freely about a horizontal axis that is parallel to and 60cm to the central logitudinal axis of the cylinder

height = 0.6m

<u>part 1</u>

The cylinder is mounted so as to rotate freely about a horizontal axis tha is paralle to 60cm from the central longitudinal axis of then cylinder. The rotational inertia of the cylinder about the axis of rotation is given by

<em>I = Icm + mh²</em>

<em>∴ I = 1/2mr² + mh² = 1/2x27x (0.5)² + 20  x  (0.6)²</em>

<em>I=13.09kg.m²</em>

where

<em>I</em>cm is the rotational inertia of the cylinder about its central axis

m is the mass of the cylinder

h is the distance between the axis of the rotation and the central axis of the cylinder

r is the radius of the cylinder

<em>                                        </em><em> I=13.09kg.m²</em>

<em>part2</em>

<em>from the conservation of the total mechanical energy of the meter stick, the change in gravitational potential energyof the meter stick plus the change in kinetic energy must be zero</em>

<em>Δk + Δu = 0</em>

<em>1/2 </em>I(w²-w²) = Ui-Uf

1/2 x 13.09w² = mgh

∴w=√20 x 9.8 x 0.6/(1/2 x 13.09) =117.6/6.5

w=18.09rad/s

A toy car has an initial acceleration of 2 m/s" across a horizontal surface after it is released from rest. After the car travel
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Closed system, because the speed of the car is as expected in the case where an object has uniform acceleration for a time t

Explanation:

Here in the question it is mentioned that a toy car has an initial acceleration of 2m/s²  across a horizontal surface so we can say that it is acted upon by an external force

Assuming that the acceleration is constant and the reason for this assumption is there at the last

The major difference between an open system and closed system is in case of open system there will be transfer of matter and in case of closed system there will be no change in matter of the system

If acceleration is constant in case of closed system we can expect the speed of the car after a time t by using the formula

  s = u×t + 0·5×a×t²

where s is the distance travelled

t is the time taken to travel that distance

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration of that system

But in case of open system as there will be a change of mass there will be a change in velocity of the system so in this case we cannot expect the speed of the car after a time t

And if the acceleration is not constant then we cannot say that the toy car is an open system or closed system, that is why we are assuming that the acceleration of the toy car is constant
