Metamorphic

Metamorphic rocks are formed under the surface of the earth from the metamorphosis (change) that occurs due to intense heat and pressure (squeezing).

What causes clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar
just olya [345]
<h2>Answer: Gravitational attraction </h2>

Gravity force causes the clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar. As this <u>attraction force</u> is responsible for gathering and compressing the existing elements in the cloud of gas and dust, heating them during this process.

Then, when the amount of material accumulated by gravitational contraction is large enough, and the temperature and pressure reached high enough, the <u>nuclear fusion</u> process will begin.

To understand it better: The hydrogen nuclei will begin to fuse, generating helium nuclei in the process and releasing huge amounts of energy.

It should be noted that the protostars radiate half of the energy contributed by the gravitational collapse and the other half is invested in heating its core.

A solid cylinder of mass M = 45 kg, radius R = 0.44 m and uniform density is pivoted on a frictionless axle coaxial with its sym
user100 [1]

Answer:

w_f = 1.0345 rad/s

Explanation:

Given:

- The mass of the solid cylinder M = 45 kg

- Radius of the cylinder R = 0.44 m

- The mass of the particle m = 3.6 kg

- The initial speed of cylinder w_i = 0 rad/s

- The initial speed of particle V_pi = 3.3 m/s

- Mass moment of inertia of cylinder I_c = 0.5*M*R^2

- Mass moment of inertia of a particle around an axis I_p = mR^2

Find:

- What is the magnitude of its angular velocity after the collision?

Solution:

- Consider the mass and the cylinder as a system. We will apply the conservation of angular momentum on the system.

                                     L_i = L_f

- Initially, the particle is at edge at a distance R from center of cylinder axis with a velocity V_pi = 3.3 m/s contributing to the initial angular momentum of the system by:

                                    L_(p,i) = m*V_pi*R

                                    L_(p,i) = 3.6*3.3*0.44

                                    L_(p,i) = 5.2272 kgm^2 /s

- While the cylinder was initially stationary w_i = 0:

                                    L_(c,i) = I*w_i

                                    L_(c,i) = 0.5*M*R^2*0

                                    L_(c,i) = 0 kgm^2 /s

The initial momentum of the system is L_i:

                                    L_i = L_(p,i) + L_(c,i)

                                    L_i = 5.2272 + 0

                                    L_i = 5.2272 kg-m^2/s

- After, the particle attaches itself to the cylinder, the mass and its distribution around the axis has been disturbed - requires an equivalent Inertia for the entire one body I_equivalent. The final angular momentum of the particle is as follows:

                                   L_(p,f) = I_p*w_f

- Similarly, for the cylinder:

                                   L_(c,f) = I_c*w_f

- Note, the final angular velocity w_f are same for both particle and cylinder. Every particle on a singular incompressible (rigid) body rotates at the same angular velocity around a fixed axis.

                                  L_f = L_(p,f) + L_(c,f)

                                  L_f = I_p*w_f + I_c*w_f

                                  L_f = w_f*(I_p + I_c)

-Where, I_p + I_c is the new inertia for the entire body = I_equivalent that we discussed above. This could have been determined by the superposition principle as long as the axis of rotations are same for individual bodies or parallel axis theorem would have been applied for dissimilar axes.

                                  L_i = L_f

                                  5.2272 = w_f*(I_p + I_c)

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ R^2*(m + 0.5M)

Plug in values:

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ 0.44^2*(3.6 + 0.5*45)

                                  w_f =  5.2272/ 5.05296

                                  w_f = 1.0345 rad/s

Two people push on the same door from opposite sides as shown.
tangare [24]
The correct answer is
<span>c. one person exerts more force than the other so that the forces are unbalanced.

In fact, the door is initially at rest. In order to move the door, a net force different from zero should be applied, according to Newton's second law:
</span>\sum F = ma
<span>where the term on the left is the resultant of the forces acting on the door, m is the door mass and a its acceleration.

In order to move the door, the acceleration must be different from zero. But this means that the resultant of the forces acting on it must be different from zero: this is possible only if  the forces applied by the two persons are unbalanced, i.e. one person exerts more force than the other.</span>
