Because of your success in physics class you are selected for an internship at a prestigious bicycle company in its research and

development division. Your first task involves designing a wheel made of a hoop that has a mass of 1.00 kg and a radius of 50.0 cm, and spokes with a mass of 10.0 g each. The wheel should have a total moment of inertia 0.280 kg⋅m2. (a) How many spokes are necessary to construct the wheel? (b) What is the mass of the wheel?

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the moment of inertia.

The given values can be defined as,

M = 1.0 kg

r = 0.5 m

m = 10 g

I = 0.280 kg.m^2

According to the definition of the moment of inertia applied to the exercise we can arrive at the equation that,

I = I_{rim} + n * I_{spoke}

Where n is the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel.

I_{rim} = M*r^2 = 1.0 * 0.5^2

I_{spoke} = \frac{1}{3} * m * r^2 = \frac{1}{3}* 10 * 10^-3 * 0.5^2

Replacing the values at the general equation we have,

0.280 = 1.0 * 0.5^2 + n * (1/3 * 10 * 10^-3 * 0.5^2 )

Solving for n,

n = 36

Therefore the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel is 36

PART B) The mass of the wheel is given by the sum of all masses and the total spokes, then

M_w= M + n*m

M_w = 1.0 + 36* 10 * 10^{-3} Kg

M_w = 1.36 Kg

Therefore the mass of the wheel must be of 1.36Kg

The mass of a moving object increases, but its speed stays the same. What happens to the kinetic energy of the object as a resul
Ronch [10]
We Know, K.E. = 1/2 × m × v²
From the expression, we can conclude that Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass. So, as mass will increase, Kinetic energy will also increase.

In short, Your Correct answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

lyudmila [28]
<span>From the point of view of the astronaut, he travels between planets with a speed of 0.6c. His distance between the planets is less than the other bodies around him and so by applying Lorentz factor, we have 2*</span>√1-0.6² = 1.6 light hours. On the other hand, from the point of view of the other bodies, time for them is slower. For the bodies, they have to wait for about 1/0.6 = 1.67 light hours while for him it is 1/(0.8) = 1.25 light hours. The remaining distance for the astronaut would be 1.67 - 1.25 = 0.42 light hours. And then, light travels in all frames and so the astronaut will see that the flash from the second planet after 0.42 light hours and from the 1.25 light hours is, 1.25 - 0.42 = 0.83 light hours or 49.8 minutes.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1270.64\ \text{J}

Explanation:

m = Mass of object = \dfrac{mg}{g}

mg = Weight of object = 20 N

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

v = Final velocity = 15 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0

d = Distance moved by the object = 150 m

\theta = Angle of slope = 30^{\circ}

f = Force of friction

fd = Work done against friction

The force balance of the system is

\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=(mg\sin\theta-f)d\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mg\sin\theta d-fd\\\Rightarrow fd=mg\sin\theta d-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow fd=20\times \sin 30^{\circ}\times 150-\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{20}{9.81}\times 15^2\\\Rightarrow fd=1270.64\ \text{J}

The work done against friction is 1270.64\ \text{J}.
