A hungry 11.5 kg predator fish is coasting from west to east at 75.0 cm/s when it suddenly swallows a 1.25 kg fish swimming from

north to south at 3.60 m/s. 1. Find the magnitude and dir ection of the velocity of the large fish just after it snapped up this meal. Neglect any effects from "water drag.2. Find the direction of the velocity of the large fish just after it snapped up this meal.

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass,m=11.5 kg

v_x=75 cm/s=0.75 m/s,v_y=0

1 m=100 cm

m'=1.25 kg

v'_x=0,v'_y=3.6 m/s

According to law of conservation momentum along east west direction

11.5\times 0.75+1.25(0)=(11.5+1.25)V_x

8.625=12.75V_x

V_x=\frac{8.625}{12.75}

V_x=0.68 m/s

According to law of conservation of momentum along north south direction

11.5(0)+1.25(3.6)=(11.5+1.25)V_y

4.5=12.75V_y

V_y=\frac{4.5}{12.75}=0.35 m/s

V=\sqrt{V^2_x+V^2_y}

V=\sqrt{(0.68)^2+(0.35)^2}

V=0.76 m/s

Direction,\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{V_y}{V_x})

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{0.35}{0.68})

\theta=27.23^{\circ}

A uniform solid sphere has mass m= 7 kg and radius r= 0. 4 m. What is its moment of inertia about an axis tangent to its surface
lilavasa [31]

The moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere is equal to 0.448 kgm^2.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Mass of sphere = 7 kg.

Radius of sphere = 0.4 meter.

<h3>How to calculate moment of inertia.</h3>

Mathematically, the moment of inertia of a solid sphere is given by this formula:

I=\frac{2}{5} mr^2

<u>Where:</u>

  • I is the moment of inertia.
  • m is the mass.
  • r is the radius.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

I=\frac{2}{5} \times 7 \times 0.4^2\\\\I=2.8 \times 0.16

I = 0.448 kgm^2.

Define orbital velocity
sveta [45]

the Orbital Velocity is the velocity sufficient to cause a natural or artificial satellite to remain in orbit. Inertia of the moving body tends to make it move on in a straight line, while gravitational force tends to pull it down. The orbital path, elliptical or circular, representing a balance between gravity and inertia, and it follows a rue that states that the more massive the body at the centre of attraction is, the higher is the orbital velocity for a particular altitude or distance.

The earth spins on its axis once a day and orbits the sun once a year (365 1/4 days). Determine the average angular velocity (in
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Given that

The earth spins on its axis once a day and orbits the sun once a year (365 1/4 days)

a)

When earth spins on its axis

We know that earth take 1 day to complete one revolution around its own axis.

T= 1 day = 24 hr = 24 x 3600 s

T=86400 s

We know that

T=2π/ω

ω= 2π/T

ω= 2π/86400

ω=7.27 x 10⁻5 rad/s

b)

When earth revolve around earth

T =365 1/4 days = 365.25 days

T= 365.24 x 86400 s

T=31557600

We know that

T=2π/ω

ω= 2π/T

ω= 2π/31557600

ω=1.99 x 10⁻⁷ rad/s
