1. Consider three objects: Object A is a hoop of mass m and radius r; Object B is a sphere
Zarrin [17]

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia (\frac{3}{2}mr^2)

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia (\frac{4}{5}mr^2)

Explanation:

The moments of inertia of the three objects are the following:

1) For a hoop of negligible thickness, it is

I=MR^2

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the hoop in this problem,

M = m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

I=(m)(r)^2=mr^2

2) For a solid sphere, the moment of inertia is

I=\frac{2}{5}MR^2

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the sphere in this problem,

M = 2m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

I=\frac{2}{5}(2m)(r)^2=\frac{4}{5}mr^2

3) For a disk of negligible thickness, the moment of inertia is

I=\frac{1}{2}MR^2

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the disk in this problem,

M = 3m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

I=\frac{1}{2}(3m)(r)^2=\frac{3}{2}mr^2

So now we can answer the two questions:

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia (\frac{3}{2}mr^2)

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia (\frac{4}{5}mr^2)

Which provides the best analogy for an electron in an atomic orbital?
Svetllana [295]
<h2>Answer: a bee trying to escape from a closed jar  </h2>

In an atom the electrons will occupy orbitals so that their energy is as small as possible. That is why the orbitals are ordered based on their energy level in an increasing order, which is associated with a particular range of energy based on its distance from the atom nucleus.

In this sense, an electron "jumps" from one level to another in the atom in the same way a bee tries to escape from a closed jar.

Explain the range of effectiveness of each fundamental force by describing the distance that each force influence nearby matter
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Actually, gravity is the weakest of the four fundamental forces. Ordered from strongest to weakest, the forces are 1) the strong nuclear force, 2) the electromagnetic force, 3) the weak nuclear force, and 4) gravity.

What will occur if a resistor with high resistance is inserted into a circuit?
Anton [14]
If the resistor is in series with the rest of the circuit then a is the correct answer. The voltage across the resistor in series with another resistor is
V \frac{R}{R+r}
where R is the big resistor and r is the small one and V is the total voltage drop across both.  This is called a voltage divider
