A disk-shaped merry-go-round of radius 2.93 m and mass 135 kg rotates freely with an angular speed of 0.621 rev/s . A 62.4 kg pe

rson running tangential to the rim of the merry-go-round at 3.21 m/s jumps onto its rim and holds on. Before jumping on the merry-go-round, the person was moving in the same direction as the merry-go-round's rim.What is the final angular speed of the merry-go-round? rad/s

Answer:

2.55 rad/sec

Explanation:

Use conservation of angular momentum

The merry go round has

I = ½mr²

I = ½ * 135 * 2.93²

I = 579 kgm²

the person has

I = mr²

I = 62.4 * 2.93²

I = 536 kgm²

Converting 0.621 rev/sec to rad/sec we have 0.621 * 2π

0.621 * 2 * 3.14 rad/sec

3.9 rad/sec

for the person v/r = w

w = 3.21 / 2.93

w = 1.10 rad/sec

So

579 * 3.9 + 536 * 1.1 = (579+536)*w

2258 + 589.6 = 1115w

2847.6 = 1115w

solve for w

w = 2847.6 / 1115

w = 2.55 rad/sec

Thus, the final angular speed of the merry go round is 2.55 rad/sec

When a condenser discharges electricity, the instantaneous rate of change of the voltage is proportional to the voltage in the c
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

460.52 s

Explanation:

Since the instantaneous rate of change of the voltage is proportional to the voltage in the condenser, we have that

dV/dt ∝ V

dV/dt = kV

separating the variables, we have

dV/V = kdt

integrating both sides, we have

∫dV/V = ∫kdt

㏑(V/V₀) = kt

V/V₀ = e^{kt}

Since the instantaneous rate of change of the voltage is -0.01 of the voltage dV/dt = -0.01V

Since dV/dt = kV

-0.01V = kV

k = -0.01

So, V/V₀ = e^{-0.01t}

V = V₀e^{-0.01t}

Given that the voltage decreases by 90 %, we have that the remaining voltage (100 % - 90%)V₀ = 10%V₀ = 0.1V₀

So, V = 0.1V₀

Thus

V = V₀e^{-0.01t}

0.1V₀ = V₀e^{-0.01t}

0.1V₀/V₀ = e^{-0.01t}

0.1 = e^{-0.01t}

to find the time, t it takes the voltage to decrease by 90%, we taking natural logarithm of both sides, we have

㏑(0.01) = -0.01t

So, t = ㏑(0.01)/-0.01

t = -4.6052/-0.01

t = 460.52 s

a car moving with a speed of 10 metre per second is accelerator at the rate of 2 metre per second square find its velocity after
STatiana [176]

a = ( v(2) - v(1) ) ÷ ( t(2) - t(1) )

2 = ( v(2) - 10 ) ÷ ( 6 - 0 )

2 × 6 = v(2) - 10

v(2) = 12 + 10

v(2) = 22 m/s

What would happen if both the radius and mass of a planet were cut in half
Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:

According to formula

g = GM/R^2

when mass is halved the value of g becomes half but when radius is halved the value of g increases 4 times.

As a result of both value of g becomes twice.

Explain why a Merry-Go-Round and a Ferris Wheel have a constant acceleration when they are moving.
luda_lava [24]

Explanation:What is centripetal acceleration?

Can an object accelerate if it's moving with constant speed? Yup! Many people find this counter-intuitive at first because they forget that changes in the direction of motion of an object—even if the object is maintaining a constant speed—still count as acceleration.

Acceleration is a change in velocity, either in its magnitude—i.e., speed—or in its direction, or both. In uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity changes constantly, so there is always an associated acceleration, even though the speed might be constant. You experience this acceleration yourself when you turn a corner in your car—if you hold the wheel steady during a turn and move at constant speed, you are in uniform circular motion. What you notice is a sideways acceleration because you and the car are changing direction. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this acceleration will become. In this section we'll examine the direction and magnitude of that acceleration.

The figure below shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity, which points directly toward the center of rotation—the center of the circular path. This direction is shown with the vector diagram in the figure. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration
