1. Consider three objects: Object A is a hoop of mass m and radius r; Object B is a sphere

Zarrin [17]

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia ( $\frac{3}{2}mr^2$ )

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia ( $\frac{4}{5}mr^2$ )

Explanation:

The moments of inertia of the three objects are the following:

1) For a hoop of negligible thickness, it is

$I=MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the hoop in this problem,

M = m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=(m)(r)^2=mr^2$

2) For a solid sphere, the moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{2}{5}MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the sphere in this problem,

M = 2m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{2}{5}(2m)(r)^2=\frac{4}{5}mr^2$

3) For a disk of negligible thickness, the moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{1}{2}MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the disk in this problem,

M = 3m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{1}{2}(3m)(r)^2=\frac{3}{2}mr^2$

So now we can answer the two questions:

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia ( $\frac{3}{2}mr^2$ )

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia ( $\frac{4}{5}mr^2$ )

A certain electromagnetic wave traveling in seawater was observed to have an amplitude of 98.02 (V/m) at a depth of 10 m, and an

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The value is $\alpha = 0.002 Np/m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first amplitude of the wave is $E_{max}1 = 98.02 \ V/m$

The first depth is $D_1 = 10 \ m$

The second amplitude is $E_{max}2 = 81.87 \ (V/m)$

The second depth is $D_2 = 100 \ m$

Generally from the spatial wave equation we have

$v(x) = Ae^{-\alpha d}cos(\beta x + \phi_o)$

=> $\frac{v(x)}{v(x)} =\frac{ Ae^{-\alpha d}cos(\beta x + \phi_o)}{ Ae^{-\alpha d}cos(\beta x + \phi_o)}$

So considering the ratio of the equation for the two depth

$\frac{A}{A_S} = \frac{e^{-D_1 \alpha }}{e^{-D_2 \alpha }}$

=> $\frac{98.02}{81.87} = \frac{e^{-10 \alpha }}{e^{-100 \alpha }}$

=> $\alpha = \frac{0.18}{90}$

=> $\alpha = 0.002 Np/m$

A rifle fires a bullet at a velocity of 78 m/s, 40 degrees above the horizontal. Determine the height (h) above the starting pos

qwelly [4]

Answer:

H = Vy t - 1/2 g t^2 height of an object with an initial "vertical" velocity

at t sec after firing

Vy = 78 m/s * sin 40 = .643 * 78 m/s = 50.1 m/s

H = 50.1 * 6 - 1/2 * 9.8 * 6^2 = 300 m - 176 m = 124 m

In the Olympic shot-put event, an athlete throws the shot with an initial speed of 12.0m/s at a 40.0? angle from the horizontal.

HACTEHA [7]

A) Horizontal range: 16.34 m

B) Horizontal range: 16.38 m

C) Horizontal range: 16.34 m

D) Horizontal range: 16.07 m

E) The angle that gives the maximum range is $41.9^{\circ}$

Explanation:

A)

The motion of the shot is a projectile motion, so we can analyze separately its vertical motion and its horizontal motion.

The vertical motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to find the time of flight:

$s=u_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$ (1)

where

s = -1.80 m is the vertical displacement of the shot to reach the ground (negative = downward)

$u_y = u sin \theta$ is the initial vertical velocity, where

u = 12.0 m/s is the initial speed

$\theta=40.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of projection

So

$u_y=(12.0)(sin 40.0^{\circ})=7.7 m/s$

$a=g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity (downward)

Substituting the numbers, we get

$-1.80 = 7.7t -4.9t^2\\4.9t^2-7.7t-1.80=0$

which has two solutions:

t = -0.21 s (negative, we ignore it)

t = 1.778 s (this is the time of flight)

The horizontal motion is instead uniform, so the horizontal range is given by

$d=u_x t$

where

$u_x = u cos \theta=(12.0)(cos 40^{\circ})=9.19 m/s$ is the horizontal velocity

t = 1.778 s is the time of flight

Solving, we find

$d=(9.19)(1.778)=16.34 m$

B)

In this second case,

$\theta=42.5^{\circ}$

So the vertical velocity is

$u_y = u sin \theta = (12.0)(sin 42.5^{\circ})=8.1 m/s$

So the equation for the vertical motion becomes

$4.9t^2-8.1t-1.80=0$

Solving for t, we find that the time of flight is

t = 1.851 s

The horizontal velocity is

$u_x = u cos \theta = (12.0)(cos 42.5^{\circ})=8.85 m/s$

So, the range of the shot is

$d=u_x t = (8.85)(1.851)=16.38 m$

C)

In this third case,

$\theta=45^{\circ}$

So the vertical velocity is

$u_y = u sin \theta = (12.0)(sin 45^{\circ})=8.5 m/s$

So the equation for the vertical motion becomes

$4.9t^2-8.5t-1.80=0$

Solving for t, we find that the time of flight is

t = 1.925 s

The horizontal velocity is

$u_x = u cos \theta = (12.0)(cos 45^{\circ})=8.49 m/s$

So, the range of the shot is

$d=u_x t = (8.49)(1.925)=16.34$ m

D)

In this 4th case,

$\theta=47.5^{\circ}$

So the vertical velocity is

$u_y = u sin \theta = (12.0)(sin 47.5^{\circ})=8.8 m/s$

So the equation for the vertical motion becomes

$4.9t^2-8.8t-1.80=0$

Solving for t, we find that the time of flight is

t = 1.981 s

The horizontal velocity is

$u_x = u cos \theta = (12.0)(cos 47.5^{\circ})=8.11 m/s$

So, the range of the shot is

$d=u_x t = (8.11)(1.981)=16.07 m$

E)

From the previous parts, we see that the maximum range is obtained when the angle of releases is $\theta=42.5^{\circ}$ .

The actual angle of release which corresponds to the maximum range can be obtained as follows:

The equation for the vertical motion can be rewritten as

$s-u sin \theta t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2=0$

The solutions of this quadratic equation are

$t=\frac{u sin \theta \pm \sqrt{u^2 sin^2 \theta+2gs}}{-g}$

This is the time of flight: so, the horizontal range is

$d=u_x t = u cos \theta (\frac{u sin \theta \pm \sqrt{u^2 sin^2 \theta+2gs}}{-g})=\\=\frac{u^2}{-2g}(1+\sqrt{1+\frac{2gs}{u^2 sin^2 \theta}})sin 2\theta$

It can be found that the maximum of this function is obtained when the angle is

$\theta=cos^{-1}(\sqrt{\frac{2gs+u^2}{2gs+2u^2}})$

Therefore in this problem, the angle which leads to the maximum range is

$\theta=cos^{-1}(\sqrt{\frac{2(-9.8)(-1.80)+(12.0)^2}{2(-9.8)(-1.80)+2(12.0)^2}})=41.9^{\circ}$
