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

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

Given:

u = 20 m/s

a = 5 m/s^2

v = 30 m/s

t = ?

Use the first kinematic equation of motion:

v = u + at

t = (v - u)/a = 10/5 = 2 seconds

The pressure exerted by a gas is 2.0 atm while it has a volume of 350 mL. What would be the volume of this sample of gas at stan
34kurt

Answer:

700 mL or 0.0007 m³

Explanation:

P₁ = Initial pressure = 2 atm

V₁ = Initial volume = 350 mL

P₂ = Final pressure = 1 atm

V₂ = Final volume

Here the temperature remains constant. So, Boyle's law can be applied here.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}=V_2\\\Rightarrow V_2=\frac{2\times 350}{1}\\\Rightarrow V_2=700\ mL

So, volume of this sample of gas at standard atmospheric pressure would be 700 mL or 0.0007 m³

what is the electric potential at point A in the electric field created by a point charge of 5.5 • 10^-12 C? estimate k as 9.00
Hitman42 [59]

The electric potential at point A in the electric field= 0.099 x 10 ⁻¹v

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given data,

charge = 5.5 x 10¹² C

k =9.00 x 10⁹

The electric potential V of a point charge can found by,

V= kQ / r

Assuming, r=5.00×10⁻² m

V= 5.5 x 10⁻¹²C x  9.00 x 10⁹ / 5.00×10⁻² m

V=  49.5 x 10⁻³/ 5.00×10⁻²

Electric potential V=  0.099 x 10⁻¹v
