The motion of spinning a hula hoop around one's hips can be modeled as a hoop rotating around an axis not through the center, bu

t offset from the center by an amount h, where h is less than R, the radius of the hoop. Suppose Maria spins a hula hoop with a mass of 0.73 kg and a radius of 0.60 m around her waist. The rotation axis is perpendicular to the plane of the hoop, but approximately 0.38 m from the center of the hoop.(a) What is the rotational inertia of the hoop in this case? ________ kg m^2 (b) If the hula hoop is rotating with an angular speed of 14.1 rad/s, what is its rotational kinetic energy?

Answer and Explanation:

Based on the given information, the formula and the computation is given below:

a. The rotational inertia of the hoop is shown below:

I_H = I_R + Mh^2

= MR^2 + Mh^2

= 0.73 \times (0.60^2 + 0.38^2)

= 0.73 × (0.36 +  0.1444)

= 0.368 kg\ mg^2

b. Now the rotational kinetic energy is

= Half \times Inertia \times omega^2

= 0.5 \times 0.368 \times 14.1^2

= 36.58 J

We simply applied the above formula for rotational inertia and rotational kinetic energy in order to reach with the correct answer

At what time of year is the intensity of solar radiation striking each of earth's hemispheres weakest?
bagirrra123 [75]
<span>During winter for a given hemisphere, solar radiation reaches the lowest period of its annual cycle due to the tilt of the earth on its axis. As the earth rotates around the sun, this tilt occludes a portion of the energy released by the sun as it diffuses in the atmosphere.</span>

Consider two uniform solid spheres where both have the same diameter, but one has twice the mass of the other. how much larger i
egoroff_w [7]
<span>The moment of inertia of the large sphere will be twice that of the smaller sphere.
   The formula for the moment of inertia for a solid sphere is:
 I = (2/5)mr^2
 where
 I = moment of inertia
 m = mass
  r = radius

   Since both spheres have the same diameter, they also have the same radius, so the only change is their mass. And the moment of inertia is directly proportional to their mass as shown by the above formula. So the sphere with twice the mass will have twice the moment of inertia, or 2 times.</span>

?/1 Jorge traveled 5 miles north to school. He then traveled 3 miles west to the store. Then he left the store and traveled 5 mi
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

He's 3 miles west of school.

Explanation:

He went 5 miles up and 5 miles down which means that he really didn't go up or down.  In between that, he went 3 miles west so if the 5 milers don't count, this puts him at 3 miles west of school.

Determine the linear velocity of an object with an angular velocity of 5.9 radians per second at a distance of 12 centimeters fr
Andre45 [30]
The linear velocity of a rotating object is the product of the angular velocity and the radius of the circular motion. Angular velocity is the rate of the change of angular displacement of a body that is in a circular motion. It is a vector quantity so it consists of a magnitude and direction. From the problem, the angular velocity is 5.9 rad per second and the radius is given as 12 centimeters. We calculate as follows:

Linear velocity = angular velocity (radius)
Linear velocity = 5.9 (12 ) = 70.8 cm / s

The linear velocity of the body in motion is 70.8 centimeters per second or 0.708 meters per second.
