Answer:

255.34 J

Explanation:

Given,

Weight of disk = 805 N

radius = 1.47 m

Force applied by the child = 49 N

time = 2.95 s

KE = ?

mass of the disk

M = \dfrac{W}{g}= \dfrac{805}{9.81} = 82.059\ Kg

Moment of inertia of the disk

I = \dfrac{1}{2}Mr^2

I = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 82.059\times 1.47^2 =88.66\ kgm^2

Torque on the child

\tau = F \times r = 49 \times 1.47 = 72.03 Nm

Angular acceleration

\alpha = \dfrac{\tau}{I}=\dfrac{72.03}{88.66} = 0.812\ rad/s^2

So, angular speed at t = 2.95 s

\omega = \alpha t = 0.812 \times 2.95 = 2.4\ rad/s

Now, KE of the merry go round

KE = \dfrac{1}{2} I \omega^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 88.66\times 2.4^2 = 255.34 J

Hence, the Kinetic energy of the merry go round = 255.34 J

lianna [129]

The products of a chemical reaction are the substances that are changed and the chemicals on the right side of a chemical equation. The correct options are B and C.

<h3>What is chemical reaction?</h3>

The chemical reaction  is the reaction between two reactants which led to the formation of products.

The products are substances which forms after reaction. The reactants are the substances which are original materials.

The reactants lie on the left side and products lie on the right side of the reaction.

Thus, the correct options are B and C.

a body starts from rest with a uniform acceleration of 2m s-2 find the distance covered by the body in 2s
Evgen [1.6K]
Finding acceleration= final velocity-initial velocity/ time taken (or A= V-U/T)

Final speed= 2m
Initial speed= 0m
Time taken= 2 seconds

2-0/2 so it’ll be 1m/s

2-0=0
2/2=
