In a downtown office building, you notice each of the four sections of a rotating door has a mass of 75 kg. What is the width, i

n meters, of each section of the door if a force of 56 N applied to the outer edge of a section produces an angular acceleration of 0.420 rad/s2?

Answer:

each door has a width of 2.666 meters

Explanation:

from Newton's second law applied to rotational motion:

ζ = I α

where ζ= torque , I = moment of inertia , α = angular acceleration

the moment of inertia for a flat plate around its central axis is

I = 1/12 m a² , where m= mass, a= total width = 2L

therefore the moment of inercia for a flat plate with length 2L ( 2 doors, one in each side of the central axis) is

I1 = 1/12 m (2L)² = 1/3 m L²

if we have 4 doors , that is 2 flat plates with length of 2L perpendicular to each other:

I = Ix + Iy = 2*I1 = 2/3 m L²

thus

ζ = I α

4* F * L = 2/3 * (4*m) L² * α

L = 3/2* F/ ( m*α) = 3/2* 56 N / ( 75 Kg * 0.420 rad/seg²) = 2.666 m

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

A poker that will effectively and safely function to move pieces of coal or logs in a burning fire must be fireproof itself. Hence, to be as safe as possible, such <u>poker should be made from a material that is fireproof</u> and that does not conduct a lot of heat. Otherwise, the poker will catch fire/becomes too hot during the course of usage.

In concave mirror, the size of image depends upon
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The distance of the object placed on the principal axis from the concave mirror.

Explanation:

In a concave mirror, the nature of the image formed formed by the object placed in front of the mirror depends on the position of the object placed in from of the mirror. It all depends on the distance between the mirror and the object placed on the principal axis.

The closer the object is to the lens, the more larger or magnified the image formed will be. For example an object placed between the focal point and the pole of a concave produces a much larger image than an object placed beyond the centre of curvature of such mirror.

Use Eq. cosϕ=R/Z to show that the average power delivered by the source in an L−R−C series circuit is given by Pav = I^2rmsR .
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a L C R circuit, the average power is given by

P_{av}=V_{rms}I_{rms}Cos\phi

As given in the question

CosФ = R / Z

And we know that

V_{rms}=I_{rms}\times Z

So

P_{av}=I_{rms}\times Z\times I_{rms}\times \frac{R}{Z}

P_{av}=I_{rms}^{2}\times R
