A 0.5 m diameter wagon wheel consists of a thin rim having a mass of 7 kg and six spokes, each with a mass of 1.2 kg. 1.2 kg 7 k

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the rim of wheel, m₁ = 7 kg

Mass of one spoke, m₂ = 1.2 kg

Diameter of the wagon, d = 0.5 m

Radius of the wagon, r = 0.25 m

Let I is the the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis.

We know that the moment of inertia of the ring is given by :

$I_1=m_1r^2$

$I_1=7\times (0.25)^2=0.437\ kgm^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod about one end is given by :

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2l^2}{3}$

l = r

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{3}$

$I_2=\dfrac{1.2\times (0.25)^2}{3}=0.025\ kgm^2$

For 6 spokes, $I_2=0.025\times 6=0.15\ kgm^2$

So, the net moment of inertia of the wagon is :

$I=I_1+I_2$

$I=0.437+0.15=0.587\ kgm^2$

So, the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis is $0.587\ kgm^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

What are two ways an engineer can build a car in order for it to accelerate faster

Ket [755]

Explanation:

Take F=ma

a = F/m

For a higher, F higher or m lower

Means higher horse power for engine or lower mass for the car

An object weighs 63.8 N in air. When it is suspended from a force scale and completely immersed in water the scale reads 16.8 N.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The density of this object is approximately $1.36\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}$ .

The density of the oil in this question is approximately $0.600\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}$ .

(Assumption: the gravitational field strength is $g =9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ )

Explanation:

When the gravitational field strength is $g$ , the weight $(\text{weight})$ of an object of mass $m$ would be $m\, g$ .

Conversely, if the weight of an object is $(\text{weight})$ in a gravitational field of strength $g$ , the mass $m$ of that object would be $m = (\text{weight}) / g$ .

Assuming that $g =9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ . The mass of this $63.8\; {\rm N}$ -object would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{63.8\; {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 6.506\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

When an object is immersed in a liquid, the buoyancy force on that object would be equal to the weight of the liquid that was displaced. For instance, since the object in this question was fully immersed in water, the volume of water displaced would be equal to the volume of this object.

When this object was suspended in water, the buoyancy force on this object was $(63.8\; {\rm N} - 16.8\; {\rm N}) = 47.0\; {\rm N}$ . Hence, the weight of water that this object displaced would be $47.0 \; {\rm N}$ .

The mass of water displaced would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{47.0\: {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 4.793\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

The volume of that much water (which this object had displaced) would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{volume} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}} \\ &\approx \frac{4.793\; {\rm kg}}{1.00\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 4.793\; {\rm L}\end{aligned}$ .

Since this object was fully immersed in water, the volume of this object would be equal to the volume of water displaced. Hence, the volume of this object is approximately $4.793\; {\rm L}$ .

The mass of this object is $6.50\; {\rm kg}$ . Hence, the density of this object would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{density} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} \\ &\approx \frac{6.506\; {\rm kg}}{4.793\; {\rm L}} \\ &\approx 1.36\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .

(Rounded to $\text{$3$ sig. fig.}$ )

Similarly, since this object was fully immersed in oil, the volume of oil displaced would be equal to the volume of this object: approximately $4.793\; {\rm L}$ .

The weight of oil displaced would be equal to the magnitude of the buoyancy force: $63.8\; {\rm N} - 35.6\; {\rm N} = 28.2\; {\rm N}$ .

The mass of that much oil would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{28.2\: {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 2.876\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the density of the oil in this question would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{density} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} \\ &\approx \frac{2.876\; {\rm kg}}{4.793\; {\rm L}} \\ &\approx 0.600\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .
