Answer:

(a)20.65g

(b)0.19m

Explanation:

(a) The total mass would be it's mass per length multiplied by the total lenght

0.355(50 + 23*0.355) = 20.65 g

(b) The center of mass would be at point c where the mass on the left and on the right of c is the same

Hence the mass on the left side would be half of its total mass which is 20.65/2 = 10.32 g

c(50 + 23c) = 10.32

23c^2 + 50c - 10.32 = 0

c \approx 0.19m

What is the moment of inertia of a 2.0 kg, 20-cm-diameter disk for rotation about an axis (a) through the center, and (b) throug
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

(a) I=0.01 kg.m²

(b) I=0.03 kg.m²

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of disk M=2.0 kg

Diameter of disk d=20 cm=0.20 m

To Find

(a) Moment of inertia through the center of disk

(b) Moment of inertia through the edge of disk

Solution

For (a) Moment of inertia through the center of disk

Using the equation of moment  of Inertia

I=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\\  I=\frac{1}{2}(2.0kg)(0.20m/2)^{2}\\  I=0.01 kg m^{2}

For (b) Moment of inertia through the edge of disk

We can apply parallel axis theorem for calculating moment of inertia

I=(1/2)MR^{2}+MD\\ Here\\D=R\\I=(1/2)(2.0kg)(0.20m/2)^{2}+(2.0kg)(0.20m/2)^{2}\\  I=0.03kgm^{2}

nlexa [21]
<span>d. The parallaxes beyond a few thousand light years are
too small to be measured with common instruments.

I'm not sure that parallax can even be used out to a few
thousand light years.

The NEAREST star to Earth has the BIGGEST parallax.
The star is Alpha Centauri.  It's only 4 light years away
from us, and its parallax is  0.000206 of a degree !
I have no idea how astronomers can measure angles
so small ... and that's the BIGGEST parallax angle of
ANY star.</span>
