A satellite is spinning at 0.01 rev/s. The moment of inertia of the satellite about the spin axis is 2000 kg · m2. Paired thrust

ers are located at a distance of 1.5 m from the spin axis. They deliver their thrust in pulses, each thruster producing an impulse of 15 N ·s per pulse. At what rate will the satellite be spinning after 30 pulses?

Answer:

Explanation:

Angular velocity of satellite

= 2π x .01

= .02 π rad /s

Initial angular momentum

Moment of inertia x angular velocity

= 2000 x .02 π

= 125.6 unit

Linear impulse produced by each thruster

= 15 N.s

Angular impulse

= 15 x 1.5 = 22.5 unit

Total angular impulse in 30 pulses

= 22.5 x 2 x 30

1350

This angular impulse will add total angular momentum of

1350 unit

So total angular momentum after 30 pulses

= 1350 + 22.5

= 1372.5 unit

So  final angular  velocity

= final  angular momentum / moment of inertia

= 1372.5 / 2000

=   0 .686 rad /s

A dvd drive has a maximum speed of 72000 revolutions per minute. if a dvd has a diamter of 12 what is the linear speed
Brilliant_brown [7]
The question isn't clear enough, I think it ask us to calculate the linear speed of a point at the edge of the DVD.
Now let's imagine we're a point at the edge of the DVD, we're undergoing a circular motion. Each minute we will complete a circular track 7200 times, now we need to know the distance we travel each turn. The perimeter of the DVD, a circular object is:
P=2\pi.R
Know recall that:
v=\frac{d}{t}
We now need to know how much distance is traveled during a minute or 60 seconds:
D=7200\times 2\pi\times R
Finally we divide this result with t=60 seconds:
v=\frac{7200\times2\pi\times R}{60}
\\
R=\frac{12}{2}=6

v\approx 4523.89 \frac{units}{second}
Where the distance units were named units as the length unit is not specified in this exercise.<span />

We can reasonably model a 90-W incandescent lightbulb as a sphere 5.7 cm in diameter. Typically, only about 5% of the energy goe
o-na [289]

Answer:

See answer

Explanation:

Given quantities:

\eta = 0.05\\ W=90[W]\\r=0.0285[m]

where \eta is the efficiency of the lightbulb (visible light is 5% of the total power), W is the total power of the lightbulb, r is the radius of the lightbulb in meters.

Intensity is power divided by area:

I =\frac{P}{A}

a) Now the effective power is \eta*W, therefore:

I =\frac{\eta*W}{\pi r^2}=\frac{0.05*90}{4\pi (0.0285)^2}=440.87[W/m^2]

b) Now the intensity is the average poynting vector is related to the magnitudes of the  maximum electric field and magnetic field amplitudes, following:

S_{average}= \frac{EB}{2\mu_{0}}[W/m]

now E and B are related:

E=cB\\ B=\frac{E}{c} and c=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\epsilon_{0} \mu_{0}}}

replace in S_{average}

S_{average}=I= \frac{c \epsilon_{0}E^2}{2}[W/m]

we replace the values and we get:

E= \sqrt{\frac{2I}{\epsilon_{0}c}}

E = \sqrt{\frac{2(440.8)}{8.85*10^{-12}3*10^8}}=576.24[V/m]

therefore

B=\frac{E}{c}=\frac{576.24}{3*10^{8}}=1.92*10^{-6}[T]
