Answer:
The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of one child = 16 kg
Mass of second child = 24 kg
Suppose a playground toy has two seats, each 6.1 kg, attached to very light rods of length r = 1.5 m.
We need to calculate the moment of inertia
Using formula of moment of inertia


m = mass of seat
m₁ =mass of one child
m₂ = mass of second child
r = radius of rod
Put the value into the formula


Hence, The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²
Answer:
(a) F = 320
(b) = F = -5.1625
Explanation:
The formula that converts degree Celsius (C) to degree Fahrenheit (F) is:
F = 1.8C + 32
Solving (a): F = 2C
Substitute 2C for F in the above equation
F = 1.8C + 32
2C = 1.8C + 32
Collect like terms
2C - 1.8C = 32
0.2C = 32
Multiply both sides by 5
5 * 0.2C = 32 * 5
C = 160
Recall that F = 2C
F = 2 * 160
F = 320
Solving (b): F = ¼C
Substitute ¼C for F in the above formula
F = 1.8C + 32
¼C = 1.8C + 32
Convert fraction to decimal
0.25C = 1.8C + 32
Collect like terms
0.25C - 1.8C = 32
-1.55C = 32
Divide both sides by -1.55
C = 32/(-1.55)
C = -32/1.55
C = -20.65
Recall that: F = ¼C
F = -¼ * 20.65
F = -5.1625
Both planets are similar in shape and have a rocky surface. Not sure about the phases though
