A woman with mass 50 kg is standing on the rim of a large disk that is rotating at 0.80 rev/s about an axis through its center.

The disk has mass 270 kg and radius 4.0 m.
Calculate the magnitude of the total angular momentum of the woman–disk system. (Assume that you can treat the woman as a point.)

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

angular momentum, L=1.4\times 10^4\ kg-m^2/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the woman, m = 50 kg

Angular velocity of the disk, \omega=0.8\ rev/s=5.02\ rad/s

Mass of the disk, m' = 2670 kg

Radius of the disk, R = 4 m

We need to find the magnitude of the total angular momentum of the woman–disk system. The moment of inertia of the system is equal to the sum of moment of inertia of women and the moment off inertia of the disk.

I=mR^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m'R^2\\\\I=R^2(m+\dfrac{1}{2}m')\\\\I=(4)^2\times (50+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 270)\\\\I=2960\ kg-m^2

The angular momentum is given by :

L=I\omega\\\\L=2960\times 5.02\\\\L=14859.2\ kg-m^2/s

or

L=1.4\times 10^4\ kg-m^2/s

So, the magnitude of the total angular momentum of the woman–disk system is 1.4\times 10^4\ kg-m^2/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Sarai strolls to the right with an average speed of 1.2m/s for 1500 seconds. What was Sarai's displacement in meters?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

1800 meters

Explanation:

Average speed=1.2 m/s

time= 1500 secs

Displacement = average speed × time

= 1.2 × 1500

=1800 meters

Consider the f(x) = cos(x-C) function shown in the figure in blue color, where 0 ≤ C ≤ 2π. What is the value of parameter C for
klemol [59]

The value of parameter C for the function in the figure is 2.

<h3>What is amplitude of a wave?</h3>

The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the wave. It can also be described at the maximum upward displacement of a wave curve.

f(x) = Acos(x - C)

where;

  • A is amplitude of the wave
  • C is phase difference of the wave

<h3>What is angular frequency of a wave?</h3>

Angular frequency is  the angular displacement of any element of the wave per unit time.

From the blue colored graph; at y = 1, x = -2 cm

1 = cos(2 - C)

(2 - C) = cos^(1)

(2 - C) = 0

C = 2

Thus, the value of parameter C for the function in the figure is 2.
