Explanation:
I have attached an illustration of a solid disk with the respective forces applied, as stated in this question.
Forces applied to the solid disk include:
Other parameters given include:
Mass of solid disk,
and radius of solid disk,
a.) The formula for determining torque (), is
Hence the net torque produced by the two forces is given as a summation of both forces:
b.) The angular acceleration of the disk can be found thus:
using the formula for the Moment of Inertia of a solid disk;
where = Mass of solid disk
and = radius of solid disk
We then relate the torque and angular acceleration () with the formula:
Answer:
Kinetic energy of diver at 90% of the distance to the water is 9000 J
Explanation:
Let d is the distance between the position of the diver and surface of the pool.
Initially, the diver is at rest and only have potential energy which is equal to 10000 J.
As the diver dives towards the pool, its potential energy is converting into kinetic energy due to law of conservation of energy, as total energy of the system remains same.
Energy before diving = Energy during diving
(Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy) = (Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy)
When the diver reaches 90% of the distance to the water, its kinetic energy
is 90% to its initial potential energy, as its initial kinetic is zero,i.e.,
K.E. =
K.E. = 9000 J
