A satellite is spinning at 6.2 rev/s. The satellite consists of a main body in the shape of a solid sphere of radius 2.0 m and m

ass 10,000 kg and two antennas projecting out from the center of mass of the main body that can be approximated with rods of length 3.0 m each and mass 16 kg. The antennas lie in the plane of rotation. What is the angular momentum of the satellite about its center?

Answer:

627031 kgm^2/s

Explanation:

First convert angular speed from 6.2 rev/s to rad/s knowing that each revolution is 2π rad:

\omega = 6.2 * 2\pi = 38.96 rad/s

The we can calculate the moments of inertia of the satellite by summing up the 2 moments of inertia of the solid sphere and the 2 rods at their ends:

I = I_s + 2I_r

I = \frac{2}{5}MR^2 + 2\frac{1}{3}mL^2

I = \frac{2}{5}10000*2^2 + 2\frac{1}{3}16*3^2

I = 16000 + 96 = 16096 kgm^2

Then the angular momentum is the product of angular velocity and moment of inertia

\omega I = 38.96 * 16096 = 627031 kgm^2/s

A steel ball rolls with a constant velocity on a tabletop 0.950 m high it rolls off and hit the ground 0.352 m from the edge of
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.799 m/s if air resistance is negligible.

Explanation:

For how long is the ball in the air?

Acceleration is constant. The change in the ball's height \Delta h depends on the square of the time:

\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t,

where

  • \Delta h is the change in the ball's height.
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity.
  • t is the time for which the ball is in the air.
  • v_0 is the initial vertical velocity of the ball.
  • The height of the ball decreases, so this value should be the opposite of the height of the table relative to the ground. \Delta h = -0.950\;\text{m}.
  • Gravity pulls objects toward the earth, so g is also negative. g \approx -9.81\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2} near the surface of the earth.
  • Assume that the table is flat. The vertical velocity of the ball will be zero until it falls off the edge. As a result, v_0 = 0.

Solve for t.

\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t;

\displaystyle -0.950 = \frac{1}{2} \times (-9.81) \cdot t^{2};

\displaystyle t^{2} =\frac{-0.950}{1/2 \times (-9.81)};

t \approx 0.440315\;\text{s}.

What's the initial horizontal velocity of the ball?

  • Horizontal displacement of the ball: \Delta x = 0.352\;\text{m};
  • Time taken: \Delta t = 0.440315\;\text{s}

Assume that air resistance is negligible. Only gravity is acting on the ball when it falls from the tabletop. The horizontal velocity of the ball will not change while the ball is in the air. In other words, the ball will move away from the table at the same speed at which it rolls towards the edge.

\begin{aligned}\text{Rolling Velocity}&=\text{Horizontal Velocity} \\&= \text{Average Horizontal Velocity}\\ &=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.352\;\text{m}}{0.440315\;\text{s}}=0.0799\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Both values from the question come with 3 significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that during the calculation and round the final result to the same number of significant figures.

Which one of the following SI base units is not matched to the correct unit of measurement?
laiz [17]
<span><span>A.    </span>Length: km<span>


The Si units of all the left measurements are true thus, in length the typical and standard SI unit is meter. SI units, also called as International Standard of Units, is composed of the following systematized units of physical measure which include, mole (amount of substance), candela (luminous intensity), kelvin (temperature), ampere (electric current), second (time), kilogram (mass), and meter (length). Hence, these measures spheres in multiplication or division by power of 10, increase or decrease in measure.</span></span>

A girl rides her bike at 2.52 m/s on the way to her friends how which is 628 m away.
Harrizon [31]

Answer: 249 seconds

Explanation:

Speed of bike = 2.52 m/s

Distance = 628 m

Time taken = ? ( let the unknown value be Z)

Recall that speed is the distance covered per unit time.

Hence, speed = Distance / Time taken

Time taken = Distance / speed

Z = 628m / 2.52 m/s

Z = 249.2 seconds (Round to nearest tenth i.e 249 seconds)

Thus, it takes 249 seconds for the girl to get to her friends house
