Cleavage<span> is the tendency of a </span>mineral<span> to break along smooth planes parallel to zones of weak bonding. Fracture is the tendency of a </span>mineral<span> to break along curved surfaces without a definite shape. These </span>minerals<span> do not have planes of weakness and break irregularly.</span>

A disk has a radius of 30 cm and a mass of 0.3 kg and is turning at 3.0 rev/s. A trickle of sand falls onto the disk at a distan
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The mass of the sand that will fall on the disk to decrease the is 0.3375 kg

Explanation:

Moment before = Moment after

I \omega_i = I \omega_f +mr^2 \omega_f\\\\mr^2 \omega_f = I \omega_i  - I \omega_f \\\\m = \frac{ I \omega_i  - I \omega_f}{r^2 \omega_f }

where;

I is moment of inertia = Mr² = 0.3 x (0.3)² = 0.027 kg.m²

substitute this in the above equation;

m = \frac{ 0.027[3(2 \pi)  - 2(2 \pi)]} {0.2^2 * 6\pi } = \frac{ 0.027[6 \pi  - 4\pi]} {0.2^2 * 4\pi }\\\\m = 0.3375kg

Therefore, the mass of the sand that will fall on the disk to decrease the is 0.3375 kg

EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2

EC_2 = 0

EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2

EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J
