Hello,

Although you can see the pencil, it appears broken in the glass of water. This is because <span>electromagnetic waves travel at different speeds through different media.

Light refracts when it hits water. That's what makes the pencil look 'broken'.

A horizontal circular platform rotates counterclockwise about its axis at the rate of 0.841 rad/s.0.841 rad/s. You, with a mass
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The total angular momentum of the system is 217.46\ kg-m^2/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular speed = 0.841 rad/s

Mass of platform = 72.1 kg

Speed = 1.17 m/s

Mass of poodle = 20.3 kg

Mass of mutt = 18.5 kg

Distance =3/4 of the platform's radius from the center

Mass of disk = 92.5 kg

radius = 1.87 m

Angular momentum is the product of moment of inertia and angular speed.

We need to calculate the angular momentum of person

L_{person} = I\omega

L_{person}=\dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\times\omega

L_{person}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times72.1\times(\dfrac{v}{\omega})^2\times\omega

L_{person}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times72.1\times(\dfrac{1.17}{0.841})^2\times0.841

L_{person}=58.679\ kg m^2/s

We need to calculate the angular momentum of platform

L_{platform}=\dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\times\omega

Put the value into the formula

L_{platform}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times92.5\times1.87^2\times0.841

L_{platform}=136.02\ kg m^2/s

We need to calculate the angular momentum of poodle

L_{poodle}=\dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\times\omega

Put the value into the formula

L_{poodle}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times20.3\times(\dfrac{1.87}{2})^2\times0.841

L_{poodle}=7.4625\ kg m^2/s

We need to calculate the angular momentum of mutt

L_{mutt}=\dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\times\omega

L_{mutt}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times18.5\times(\dfrac{3}{4}\times1.87)^2\times0.841

L_{mutt}=15.302\ kg m^2/s

We need to calculate the total angular momentum

L=L_{person}+L_{platform}+L_{poodle}+L_{mutt}

L=58.679+136.02+7.4625+15.302

L=217.46\ kg-m^2/s

Hence, The total angular momentum of the system is 217.46\ kg-m^2/s.

A space rocket is launched and accelerates uniformly to 160 m/s in 4.5 s. Calculate the acceleration of the rocket.​
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

<h2>35.56 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{v}{t}  \\

v is the velocity

t is the time

From the question we have

a =  \frac{160}{4.5}  = 35.55555...

We have the final answer as

<h3>35.56 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
