A 1090 kg car has four 12.7 kg wheels. When the car is moving, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to ro

tation of the wheels about their axles? Assume that the wheels have the same rotational inertia as uniform disks of the same mass and size.

Answer:

\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = 0.018

Explanation:

To develop this exercise we proceed to use the kinetic energy equations,

In the end we replace

KE_{Total}=KE_{Translational}+KE_{Rotational}

KE_{Total}=\frac{1}{2}m_{car}+4*\frac{1}{2}*I*(\frac{v}{r})^2

Here

I=\frac{1}{2}m_{wheels}*r^2 meaning the 4 wheels,

So replacing

KE_{Rotational}=4\frac{1}{2}*(\frac{1}{2}m_{wheels}*r^2)*(\frac{v}{r})^2=m*v^2

So,

\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = \frac{m_{wheels}*v^2}{\frac{1}{2}m_{car}*v^2+m_{wheels}*v^2}

\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = \frac{m_{wheels}}{\frac{1}{2}m_{car}+m_{wheels}}

\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} =  \frac{10}{545+10}

\frac{KE_{Rotational}}{KE_{Total}} = 0.018

I got the correct answer, but I don't know what I did. Why is the answer E?
MariettaO [177]

Explanation:

Displacement is the straight line distance from the starting position to the final position.

Person X walks halfway around circle.  So her displacement is 100 m.

Person Y walks 3/4 of the way around.  So his displacement is 50√2 m ≈ 70.7 m.

Person Z walks completely around the circle, so their displacement is 0 m.

Therefore:

Z < Y < X

BARSIC [14]
This type of listening response is called back-channel signal. This allows the speaker to know that the listener is attentive or willing to engage a conversation between them. It is shown through short utterances, facial expressions, head nods and others.

A wave is traveling at 241 m/s. It has a wavelength of 30.0 m. What is its frequency?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

A) 8.03Hz

Explanation:

f = V/λ

Where wavelength( λ )= 30m

Speed (V) =241m/S

f= 241/30=8.03Hz

Damm [24]

Answer:

ugmd = 1/2 kx²

d = (1/2 kx²) / (ugm)

= (1/2 * 250 N/m * (0.2 m)²) / (0.23 * 9.81 m/s² * 0.3 kg)

= 7.4 m

ugmd = 1/2 mv²

v = √2ugd

= √(2(0.23)(9.81 m/s²)(7.4 m)

= 5.8 m/s
