The answer is:

1. Cure disease

2. Improve livelihoods

3. Understand nature and themselves.

1. Disease has plagued humans since the first man. Therefore, man has always used science to seek a cure for any emerging disease such as cancer today

2. Humans use science to improve livelihoods such as means of faster traveling and increasing yields in the fields

3. Science has been used to understand humans and the environment in which they live. This is evident with the numerous scientific probes that explore the earth and space collecting and analyzing data.

A 70.0 kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, has a 0.110 kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 31.5 m/s. Suppose th

NISA [10]

Answer

given,

mass of the goalie(m₁) = 70 kg

mass of the puck (m₂)= 0.11 kg

velocity of the puck = 31.5 m/s

elastic collision

$v_1=\dfrac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}v_1+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}v_2$

$v_{pf}=\dfrac{0.11-70}{0.11+70}31.5+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}\times (0)$

$v_{pf}=-31.4\ m/s$

$v'_2 = \dfrac{2m_1v_1}{m_1+m_2}-\dfrac{(m_2-m_1)v_2}{m_2+m_1}$

$v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}-\dfrac{(0.11-70)\times 0}{m_1+m_2}$

$v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}$

$v_{gf} = 0.0988\ m/s$

You have a pendulum clock made from a uniform rod of mass M and length L pivoting around one end of the rod. Its frequency is 1

drek231 [11]

The new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

The given parameters;

Mass of the pendulum, = M
Length of the pendulum, = L
Initial angular speed, $\omega _i$ = 1 rad/s

The moment of inertia of the rod about the end is given as;

$I_i = \frac{1}{3} ML^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod between the middle and the end is calculated as;

$I_f = \int\limits^L_{L/2} {r^2\frac{M}{L} } \, dr = \frac{M}{3L} [r^3]^L_{L/2} = \frac{M}{3L} [L^3 - \frac{L^3}{8} ] = \frac{M}{3L} [\frac{7L^3}{8} ]= \frac{7ML^2}{24}$

Apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below;

$I _i \omega _i = I _f \omega _f\\\\\frac{ML^2}{3} (1 \ rad/s)= \frac{7ML^2}{24} \times \omega _f\\\\\frac{24 \times ML^2}{3 \times 7 ML^2} (1 \ rad/s)= \omega _f\\\\1.14 \ rad/s = \omega _f$

Thus, the new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.
