A solid cylinder of mass M = 45 kg, radius R = 0.44 m and uniform density is pivoted on a frictionless axle coaxial with its sym

metry axis. A particle of mass m = 3.6 kg and initial velocity v0 = 3.3 m/s (perpendicular to the cylinder’s axis) flies too close to the cylinder’s edge, collides with the cylinder and sticks to it.Before the collision, the cylinder was not rotating. What is the magnitude of its angular velocity after the collision?

Answer:

w_f = 1.0345 rad/s

Explanation:

Given:

- The mass of the solid cylinder M = 45 kg

- Radius of the cylinder R = 0.44 m

- The mass of the particle m = 3.6 kg

- The initial speed of cylinder w_i = 0 rad/s

- The initial speed of particle V_pi = 3.3 m/s

- Mass moment of inertia of cylinder I_c = 0.5*M*R^2

- Mass moment of inertia of a particle around an axis I_p = mR^2

Find:

- What is the magnitude of its angular velocity after the collision?

Solution:

- Consider the mass and the cylinder as a system. We will apply the conservation of angular momentum on the system.

                                     L_i = L_f

- Initially, the particle is at edge at a distance R from center of cylinder axis with a velocity V_pi = 3.3 m/s contributing to the initial angular momentum of the system by:

                                    L_(p,i) = m*V_pi*R

                                    L_(p,i) = 3.6*3.3*0.44

                                    L_(p,i) = 5.2272 kgm^2 /s

- While the cylinder was initially stationary w_i = 0:

                                    L_(c,i) = I*w_i

                                    L_(c,i) = 0.5*M*R^2*0

                                    L_(c,i) = 0 kgm^2 /s

The initial momentum of the system is L_i:

                                    L_i = L_(p,i) + L_(c,i)

                                    L_i = 5.2272 + 0

                                    L_i = 5.2272 kg-m^2/s

- After, the particle attaches itself to the cylinder, the mass and its distribution around the axis has been disturbed - requires an equivalent Inertia for the entire one body I_equivalent. The final angular momentum of the particle is as follows:

                                   L_(p,f) = I_p*w_f

- Similarly, for the cylinder:

                                   L_(c,f) = I_c*w_f

- Note, the final angular velocity w_f are same for both particle and cylinder. Every particle on a singular incompressible (rigid) body rotates at the same angular velocity around a fixed axis.

                                  L_f = L_(p,f) + L_(c,f)

                                  L_f = I_p*w_f + I_c*w_f

                                  L_f = w_f*(I_p + I_c)

-Where, I_p + I_c is the new inertia for the entire body = I_equivalent that we discussed above. This could have been determined by the superposition principle as long as the axis of rotations are same for individual bodies or parallel axis theorem would have been applied for dissimilar axes.

                                  L_i = L_f

                                  5.2272 = w_f*(I_p + I_c)

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ R^2*(m + 0.5M)

Plug in values:

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ 0.44^2*(3.6 + 0.5*45)

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ 5.05296

                                  w_f = 1.0345 rad/s

A 12 oz can of soda is left in a car on a hot day. In the morning the soda temperature was 60oF with a gauge pressure of 40 psi.
Neko [114]
In this case, volume of the can remains constant. The relationship between pressure and temperature at constant volume is given by:

P/T = Constant

Then
\frac{ P_{1} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{ P_{2} }{ T_{2} }

Where
P1 = 40 psi
P2 = ?
T1 = 60°F ≈ 289 K
T2 = 90°F ≈ 305 K (note, 363 K is not right)

Substituting;
P_{2} = \frac{ P_{1}  T_{2} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{40*305}{289}  =42.21 psi

Convert 1erg into joule by dimensional method​
Valentin [98]

Answer:

1 * 10^-7 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use dimensional analysis.

1 ergos [erg] is equal to 1 * 10^-7 Joules [J]

1[erg]*\frac{1*10^{-7} }{1}*[\frac{J}{erg} ] \\= 1*10^{-7}[J]

Mary was looking out of the window she saw lightening and then heard thunder a few seconds later explain why she saw lightening
alekssr [168]

Explanation:

It is based upon the fact that " The light travels faster then sound." As the speed of light is faster then the speed of sound, light travels 300,000 km per second and sound travels 1192 km per hour. That is why we observe the lightening first and hear the the sound of thunder later.

        You can do this experiment by yourself. Once you see the lightening start counting the seconds until you hear the sound of thunder.Then divide the seconds by 5, you will find out how many miles away the lightening strike was.

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. The heat capacity of Object A is
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat capacity A = 3 x heat capacity of B

initial temperature of A = 2 x initial temperature of B

TA = 2 TB

Let T be the final temperature of the system

Heat lost by A is equal to the heat gained by B

mass of A x specific heat of A x (TA - T) = mass of B x specific heat of B x ( T - TB)

heat capacity of A x ( TA - T) = heat capacity of B x ( T - TB)

3 x heat capacity of B x ( TA - T) = heat capacity of B x ( T - TB)

3 TA - 3 T = T - TB

6 TB + TB = 4 T

T = 1.75 TB
