A flywheel of mass 182 kg has an effective radius of 0.62 m (assume the mass is concentrated along a circumference located at th
musickatia [10]

Answer:

A)5524J,

B) 29.2Nm

Explanation:

This question can be treated using work- energy theorem

Work= change in Kinectic energy

W= Δ KE

Work= difference between the final Kinectic energy and intial Kinectic energy.

We know that

Kinectic energy= 1/2 mv^2 .............eqn(1)

This can be written in term of angular velocity, as

KE= 1/2 I

A loaded barge has a mass of 1 500 000 kg and is traveling at 3 m/s. If a tugboat applies an opposing force of 12 000 N for 10 s
yan [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s

The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 =  4.38e6 kg•m/s

The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s

The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.

The initial barge momentum will be zero in

t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds

To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply

4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N

A woman can row a boat at 5.60 km/h in still water. (a) If she is crossing a river where the current is 2.80 km/h, in what direc
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

a) θ=210°, b) t=1.155hr, c) t=1.333hr, d) t=1.333hr, e) θ=180° (straight across), f) t=1hr.

Explanation:

So, the very first thing we nee to do when solving this problem is draw a diagram that represents it. In the attached picture I show a diagram for each part of this problem.

part a)

So, for her to move in a direction directly opposite her starting point, the x-component of her velocity must be de same as the velocity of the river in the opposite direction. We can use this fact to find the angle we need. If we analize the triangle I drew in the diagram, we can ses that:

cos \theta = \frac {V_{river}}{V_{boat}}

When solving for theta, we get that:

\theta =cos^{-1} ( \frac {V_{river}}{V_{boat}})

so now we can substitute the corresponding values:

\theta =cos^{-1} ( \frac {2.80km/hr}{5.60km/hr}})

Which yields:

\theta = 60^{o}

but we are measuring the angle relative to the line perpendicular to the river, positive if down the river. So we need to subtract the angle from 270° so we get:

θ=270°-60°=210°

part b)

for part b, we need to find what the y-component for the velocity of the boat is for an angle of 210° as shown in the problem, so we get that:

V_{y}=5.60km/hr*cos(210^{o})

V_{y}=-4.85km/hr

The woman will head in a negative 5.60km distance from one side to the other, so we get that the time it takes her to go to the other side of the river is:

t=\frac{y}{V_{y}}

t=\frac{5.60km}{4.85km/hr}=1.155hr

part c)

In order to find the time it takes her to travel 2.80km down and up the river, we need to find the velocities she will have in both directions. First, down stream:

V_{ds}=V_{river}+V{boat}

V_{ds}=2.80km/hr+5.60km/hr=8.40km/hr

and now up stream:

V_{us}=V_{boat}-V{river}

V_{us}=5.60km/hr-2.80km/hr=2.80km/hr

Once we got these two velocities we will now need to find the time to take each trip:

time down stream:

t_{ds}=\frac{x}{v_{ds}}

t_{ds}=\frac{2.80km}{8.40km/hr}=0.333hr

and the time up stream:

t_{us}=\frac{x}{v_{us}}

t_{us}=\frac{2.80km}{2,80km/hr}=1hr

so the total time will be:

t_{ds}+t_{us}=0.333hr+1hr=1.333hr

d) the time it takes the boat to go upstream and then downstream for the same distance is the same as the time we got on part c, since both times will be the same but they will come in different order, but their sum will be just the same:

t=1.333hr

e) For her to cross the river faster, she must row in a 180° direction (this is in a direction straight accross the river) that way she will use all her velocity to move across the river. (Even though she will move a certain distance horizontally and will not reach a point opposite to the starting point.)

f) In order to find the time it takes her to get to the other side, we need to divide the distance into the velocity of the boat.

t=\frac{d}{v_{boat}}

t=\frac{5.60km}{5.60km/hr}

so

t= 1hr

Which is present when iodine changes from brown to blue or purple?
vladimir1956 [14]


If iodine is added to a starch solution, they react with each other and the iodine  darkens to an almost pitch black.

however, if iodine is added to a solution containing no starch, it will show up only as an extremely pale brown. almost colorless and hardly visible.

when following the changes in some inorganic oxidation reduction reactions, iodine may be used as an indicator to follow the changes of iodide ion and iodine element. soluble starch solution is added. only iodine element in the presence of iodide ion will give the characteristic blue black color. neither iodine element alone nor iodide ions alone will give the color result.

hope this answer really helps your question :)
