A 30 kg mass and a 20 kg mass are joined by a light rigid rod and this system is free to rotate in the plane of the page about a

xis through A and perpendicular to the page. The 30 kg mass is 0.2 m from A and the 20-kg mass is 0.4 m from A. Treating the masses as point masses and assuming the system rotates at 5 rad/s about A, what is the total kinetic energy?

55 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given as: 0.5MV^2 where M is the mass and V is the speed of rotation. Since the masses are point masses, we calculate the point mass for each mass.

M1 = 30*0.2^2 = 1.2kgm^2

M2 = 20*0.4^2 = 3.2kgm^2

V = 5 rad/s

Calculating using the formula above, we obtain :

0.5(1.2+3.2)5^2 =0.5*4.4*25 = 55 J

Answer:

  K = 55 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is a scalar therefore it is an additive quantity

       K = ½ I₁ w₁² + ½ I₂ w₂²

The moment of inertia of a particular is

      I = m r²

      I₁ = 30 0.2² = 1.2   kg m²

      I₂ = 20 0.4² = 3.2  kg m²

As the body is joined by a rigid rod they both have the same angular velocity

      K = ½ (I₁ + I₂) w²

Let's calculate

      K = ½ (1.2 + 3.2) 5²

       K = 55 J

An electric field of intensity 3.80 kN/C is applied along the x-axis. Calculate the electric flux through a rectangular plane 0.
lakkis [162]

Answer: 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Explanation: The electric flux, electric field intensity and area are related by the formulae below.

Φ= EAcosθ,

Where Φ= electric flux (Nm²c^-1)

E =electric field intensity (N/m²)

A = Area (m²)

θ= this is angle between the planar area and the magnetic flux

For our question E=3.80KN/c= 3800 N/c

A= 0.700 x 0.350= 0.245m²

θ= 0° ( this is because the electric field was applied along the x axis, thus the electric flux will be parallel to the area).

Hence Φ= 3800 x 0.245 x cos(0)

= 3800 x 0.245 x 1 (value of cos 0° =1)

= 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Thus the electric field is 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

8. How is the crystal size different for extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks?
eduard
<span>Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at a depth within the Earth are called intrusive rocks. Intrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, i.e., their visual appearance shows individual crystals interlocked together to form the rock mass.  hope that helped</span>

13.<br>14. Why does a person feel weightlessness during freefall?​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

When in free fall, the only force acting upon your body is the force of gravity - a non-contact force. Since the force of gravity cannot be felt without any other opposing forces, you would have no sensation of it. You would feel weightless when in a state of free fall.
