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

How high does the water rise in the bell after enough time has passed for the air to reach thermal equilibrium
Minchanka [31]

The height risen by water in the bell after enough time has passed for the air to reach thermal equilibrium is 3.8 m.

<h3>Pressure and temperature at equilibrium </h3>

The relationship between pressure and temperature can be used to determine the height risen by the water.

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where;

  • V₁ = AL
  • V₂ = A(L - y)
  • P₁ = Pa
  • P₂ = Pa + ρgh
  • T₁ = 20⁰C = 293 K
  • T₂ = 10⁰ C = 283 k

\frac{PaAL}{T_1} = \frac{(P_a + \rho gh)A(L-y)}{T_2} \\\\\frac{PaL}{T_1} = \frac{(P_a + \rho gh)(L-y)}{T_2} \\\\L-y = \frac{PaLT_2}{T_1(P_a + \rho gh)} \\\\y = L (1 - \frac{PaT_2}{T_1(P_a + \rho gh)})\\\\y = 4.2(1 - \frac{101325 \times 283}{293(101325\  +\  1000 \times  9.8 \times  100)} )\\\\y = 3.8 \ m

Thus, the height risen by water in the bell after enough time has passed for the air to reach thermal equilibrium is 3.8 m.

The complete question is below:

A diving bell is a 4.2 m -tall cylinder closed at the upper end but open at the lower end. The temperature of the air in the bell is 20 °C. The bell is lowered into the ocean until its lower end is 100 m deep. The temperature at that depth is 10°C. How high does the water rise in the bell after enough time has passed for the air to reach thermal equilibrium?

A sample of 5.6 L of a gas is at a pressure of 1.5 atm. If the volume of the gas is compressed to 4.8 L, what will the new press
Effectus [21]

Answer:

1.75atm

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, the pressure P of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to it's volume V provided that the temperature remains constant.

P\alpha \frac{1}{V}\\hence\\PV=constant

This implies the following;

P_1V_1=P_2V_2=...=P_nV_n............(1) Provided temperature is kept constant.

Given;

P_1=1.5atm\\V_1=5.6L\\P_2=?\\V_2=4.8L

From equation (1), we can write;

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\hence\\1.5*5.6=P_2*4.8\\\\P_2=\frac{1.5*5.6}{4.8}\\\\P_2=1.75atm

Since all the units are consistent, there is no need for conversion.

A 2.45-kg frictionless block is attached to an ideal spring with force constant 355 N/m. Initially the spring is neither stretch
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A.    A = 0.913 m

B.    amax = 132.24m/s^2

C.    Fmax = 324.01N

Explanation:

When the block is moving at the equilibrium point , its velocity is maximum.

A. To find the amplitude of the motion you use the following formula for the maximum velocity:

v_{max}=A\omega          (1)

vmax = maximum velocity = 11.0 m/s

A: amplitude of the motion = ?

w: angular frequency = ?

Then, you have to calculate the angular frequency of the motion, by using the following formula:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}           (2)

k: spring constant = 355 N/m

m: mass of the object = 2.54 kg

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{355N/m}{2.45kg}}=12.03\frac{rad}{s}

Next, you solve the equation (1) for A and replace the values of vmax and w:

A=\frac{v}{\omega}=\frac{11.0m/s}{12.03rad/s}=0.913m

The amplitude of the motion is 0.913m

B. The maximum acceleration of the block is given by:

a_{max}=A\omega^2 = (0.913m)(12.03rad/s)^2=132.24\frac{m}{s^2}

The maximum acceleration is 132.24 m/s^2

C. The maximum force is calculated by using the second Newton law and the maximum acceleration:

F_{max}=ma_{max}=(2.45kg)(132.24m/s^2)=324.01N

It is also possible to calculate the maximum force by using:

Fmax = k*A = (355N/m)(0.913m) = 324.01N

The maximum force exertedbu the spring on the object is 324.01 N

A climber pulls down on a rope causing his body to rise up with the rope? Which law of motion is it?
12345 [234]
This would be called the law of action-reaction. This states that every action will have an equal and opposite reaction. The action in the example is pulling down on the rope. The opposite and equal reaction is the climers body moving upward. The same law can be applied to a rocket. The action is the engines pushing down and the reaction is the rocket going up. :D
