Kinetic Energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

KE = (1/2) (400 kg) (50 m/s)²

KE = (200 kg) (2500 m²/s²)

KE = 500,000 kg-m²/s²

<em>KE = 500,000 Joules</em>

KE = 1/2 Mega-Joule

Four point masses of 3.0 kg each are arranged in a square on masslessrods. The length of a side of the square is 0.50m. What is

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Part a)

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Part b)

$I = 0.75 kg m^2$

Part c)

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through B and C is given as

$I = mL^2 + mL^2 + m(0) + m(0)$

$I = 2mL^2$

$I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Part b)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through A and C is given as

$I = m(0^2) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(0) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2$

$I = 2m\frac{L^2}{2}$

$I = (3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 0.75 kg m^2$

Part c)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the center of the square and perpendicular to the plane of the square

$I = m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2$

$I = 4m\frac{L^2}{2}$

$I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

A small plane flies 40.0 km in a direction 60° north of east and then flies 30.0 km in a direction 15° north of east. Use the an

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

d= 64.7 km

$\theta = 40.9^{o}$

displacement vector $=r_xi + r_yj = 48.9i + 42.4j$

Explanation:

total distance = 40 + 30 = 70 km

during 1st flight

$r_1 x = 40*cos60$

$r_1 x = 20 km$

$r_1 y = 40*sin60$

$r_1 y = 34.64 km$

during 2nd flight

$r_2 x = 30*cos15$

$r_2 x = 28.9 km$

$r_2 y = 30*sin15$

$r_2 y = 7.76 km$

the two component of r are:

$r_x = r_1x + r_2x = 20 + 28.9 = 48.9 km$

$r_y = r_1y + r_2y = 34.64 + 7.76 = 42.4 km$

Geographical Direction $\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{r_y}{r_x} [tex]\theta = 40.9^{o}$

Displacement d $= \sqrt{r_x^2 + r_y^2}$

$d = \sqrt{48.9^2+42.4^2} = 64.7 km$

d= 64.7 km

displacement vector $=r_xi + r_yj = 48.9i + 42.4j$
