A 55.0-kg woman stands at the rim of a horizontal turntable having a moment of inertia of 480 kg · m^2 and a radius of 2.00 m. T

he turntable is initially at rest and is free to rotate about a frictionless vertical axle through its center. The woman then starts walking around the rim clockwise (as viewed from above the system) at a constant speed of 1.50 m/s relative to the Earth.(a) In what direction does the turntable rotate?counterclockwise or clockwiseWith what angular speed does the turntable rotate?rad/s(b) How much work does the woman do to set herself and the turntable into motion?J

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

net angular momentum is conserved as there is no net external torque.

therefore. 0 = angular momentum of woman + angular momentum of wheel.

0 = 55x2x1.5 + 480xω

ω = -0.3056 rad/sec ,-ve sign shows that the direction is opposite to woman, ie counterclockwise.

work done by woman = total kinetic energy of the wheel and woman

=1/2 x 55 x 1.52 + 1/2 Iω2 = 1/2x55x1.52 + 1/2x540x0.30562=  41.8+73.35 = 115.14J

In which city did the wright brothers take off on their very first flight
Nezavi [6.7K]
<h2>Answer: Kitty Hawk, North Carolina </h2>

The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were pioneers of aviation, since they flew in a device heavier than air, which was inconceivable at that time.

Their first successful flight was on December 17th, 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which lasted only 12 seconds in which their plane (the Flyer I, with 341 kg, 6.4 m long and a wingspan of 12.3 m) traveled 37 m without touching the ground. This was achieved through the help of an external catapult that "threw" them into the air.

It should be noted that the Wright brothers only studied until high school, however, their passion for solving the problem of the human inability to fly, their perseverance and experience acquired over the years in their bicycle company, led them to reach that goal. An achievement that marked the beginning of the  aviation era.

Which of these events indicate that a chemical reaction might have occurred?
blagie [28]
Reactions occur when two or more molecules interact and the molecules change. Bonds between atoms are broken and created to form new molecules. That's it.

Problem 4: A uniform flat disk of radius R and mass 2M is pivoted at point P A point mass of 1/2 M is attached to the edge of th
brilliants [131]

From the case we know that:

  1. The moment of inertia Icm of the uniform flat disk witout the point mass is Icm = MR².
  2. The moment of inerta with respect to point P on the disk without the point mass is Ip = 3MR².
  3. The total moment of inertia (of the disk with the point mass with respect to point P) is I total = 5MR².

Please refer to the image below.

We know from the case, that:

m = 2M

r = R

m2 = 1/2M

distance between the center of mass to point P = p = R

Distance of the point mass to point P = d = 2R

We know that the moment of inertia for an uniform flat disk is 1/2mr². Then the moment of inertia for the uniform flat disk is:

Icm = 1/2mr²

Icm = 1/2(2M)(R²)

Icm = MR² ... (i)

Next, we will find the moment of inertia of the disk with respect to point P. We know that point P is positioned at the arc of the disk. Hence:

Ip = Icm + mp²

Ip = MR² + (2M)R²

Ip = 3MR² ... (ii)

Then, the total moment of inertia of the disk with the point mass is:

I total = Ip + I mass

I total = 3MR² + (1/2M)(2R)²

I total = 3MR² + 2MR²

I total = 5MR² ... (iii)

ball A of mass 5.0 kg moving at 20 meters per second collides with ball B of unknown mass moving at 10. meters per second in the
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:The mass of ball B is 10 kg.

Explanation;

Mass of ball A = M_A=5 kg

Velocity of the ball A before collision:U_A=20 m/s

Velocity of ball A after collision=V_A=10 m/s

Mass of ball B= M_B

Velocity of the ball B before collision:U_B=10 m/s

Velocity of ball B after collision=V_B=15 m/s

M_AV_A+M_BV_B=M_AU_A+M_BU_B

5 kg\times 10 m/s+M_B\times 15=5 kg\times 20m/s+M_B\times 10m/s

M_B=10kg

The mass of ball B is 10 kg.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The path length difference = extra distance traveled

The destructive interference condition is:

\Delta d = (m+1/2)\lambda

where m =0,1, 2,3........

So, ←

\Delta d = (m+1/2)\lamb da9/tex]so [tex]\Delta d = \frac{\lambda}{2}

⇒ λ = 2Δd = 2×10 = 20
