Complete Question:

A uniform rod of mass 1.90 kg and length 2.00 m is capable of rotating about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its length. A mass m1 = 5.40 kgis attached to one end and a second mass m2 = 2.50 kg is attached to the other end of the rod. Treat the two masses as point particles.

(a) What is the moment of inertia of the system?

(b) If the rod rotates with an angular speed of 2.70 rad/s, how much kinetic energy does the system have?

(c) Now consider the rod to be of negligible mass. What is the moment of inertia of the rod and masses combined?

(d) If the rod is of negligible mass, what is the kinetic energy when the angular speed is 2.70 rad/s?

Answer:

a) 8.53 kg*m² b) 31.1 J c) 7.9 kg*m² d) 28.8 J

Explanation:

a) If we treat to the two masses as point particles, the rotational inertia of each mass will be the product of the mass times the square of the distance to the axis of rotation, which is exactly the half of the length of the rod.

As the mass has not negligible mass, we need to add the rotational inertia of the rod regarding an axis passing through its centre, and perpendicular to its length.

The total rotational inertia will be as follows:

I = M*L²/12 + m₁*r₁² + m₂*r₂²

⇒ I =( 1.9kg*(2.00)²m²/12) + 5.40 kg*(1.00)²m² + 2.50 kg*(1.00)m²

⇒ I = 8.53 kg*m²

b) The rotational kinetic energy of the rigid body composed by the rod and the point masses m₁ and m₂, can be expressed as follows:

Krot = 1/2*I*ω²

if ω= 2.70 rad/sec, and I = 8.53 kg*m², we can calculate Krot as follows:

Krot = 1/2*(8.53 kg*m²)*(2.70)²(rad/sec)²

⇒ Krot = 31.1 J

c) If the mass of the rod is negligible, we can remove its influence of the rotational inertia, as follows:

I = m₁*r₁² + m₂*r₂² = 5.40 kg*(1.00)²m² + 2.50 kg*(1.00)m²

I = 7.90 kg*m²

d) The new rotational kinetic energy will be as follows:

Krot = 1/2*I*ω² = 1/2*(7.9 kg*m²)*(2.70)²(rad/sec)²

Krot= 28.8 J

A student throws a baseball horizontally at 25 meters per second from a cliff 45 meters above the level ground. Approximately ho

Delicious77 [7]

First, calculate how long the ball is in midair. This will depend only on the vertical displacement; once the ball hits the ground, projectile motion is over. Since the ball is thrown horizontally, it originally has no vertical speed.
t = time vi = initial vertical speed = 0m/s g = gravity = -9.8m/s^2 y = vertical displacement = -45m
y = .5gt^2 [Basically, in this equation we see how long it takes the ball to fall 45m] -45m = .5 (-9.8m/s^2) * t^2 t = 3.03 s
Now we know that the ball is midair for 3.03s. Since horizontal speed is constant we can simply use:
x = horizontal displacement v = horizontal speed = 25m/s t = time = 3.03s
x = v*t x = 25m/s * 3.03s = 75.76 m Thus, the ball goes about 75 or 76 m from the base of the cliff.

What force, in newtons, must you exert on the balloon with your hands to create a gauge pressure of 62.5 cm H2O, if you squeeze

yulyashka [42]

Answer:54.70 N

Explanation:

Given

Gauge Pressure of $62.5 cm of H_2O$

i.e. $h=62.5 cm =0.625 m$

Effective area $A=51 cm^2$

initial Pressure $= 1 atm=101.325 kPa$

Gauge Pressure $P=\rho gh$

$\rho =density\ of\ water =1000 kg/m^3$

$P_{gauge}=1000\times 9.8\times 0.625=5.937 kPa$

Force creates a pressure of $P_1$ which will be equal to Gauge Pressure

$P_1=\frac{F}{A}$

$P_1=P_{gauge}$

$\frac{F}{A}=5.937 kPa$

$F=5.937\times 51\times 10^{-4}\times 10^3$

$F=30.27 N$

which of the following statements describes the formation of acid rain?...A. acid rain forms from human activities and lowers th

olga_2 [115]

The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7

Explanation:

The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).
