You set out to design a car that uses the energy stored in a flywheel consisting of a uniform 101-kg cylinder of radius r that h

as a maximum angular speed of 470 rev/s. the flywheel must deliver an average of 2.40 mj of energy for each kilometer of distance. find the smallest value of r for which the car can travel 300 km without the flywheel needing to be recharged.

Ok, assuming "mj" in the question is Megajoules MJ) you need a total amount of rotational kinetic energy in the fly wheel at the beginning of the trip that equals
(2.4e6 J/km)x(300 km)=7.2e8 J
The expression for rotational kinetic energy is

E = (1/2)Iω²  

where I is the moment of inertia of the fly wheel and ω is the angular velocity.  
So this comes down to finding the value of I that gives the required energy.  We know the mass is 101kg.  The formula for a solid cylinder's moment of inertia is

 I = (1/2)mR²

We want (1/2)Iω² = 7.2e8 J and we know ω is limited to 470 revs/sec.  However, ω must be in radians per second so multiply it by 2π to get 
ω = 2953.1 rad/s
Now let's use this to solve the energy equation, E = (1/2)Iω²,  for I:
I = 2(7.2e8 J)/(2953.1 rad/s)² = 165.12 kg·m²

Now find the radius R,

 165.12 kg·m² = (1/2)(101)R²,
√(2·165/101) = 1.807m

R = 1.807m

An office window has dimensions 3.1 m by 2.1 m. As a result of the passage of a storm, the outside air pressure drops to 0.954 a
Virty [35]

Answer:

Net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Dimension of the office window.

Length of the window = 3.1 m

Width of the window = 2.1 m

Area of the window = (3.1\times 2.1) = 6.51\ m^2

Difference in air pressure = Inside pressure - Outside pressure

                                           = (1.0-0.954) atm = 0.046 atm

Conversion of the pressure in its SI unit.

⇒  1 atm = 101325 Pa

⇒ 0.046 atm = 0.046\times 101325 =4660.95 Pa

We have to find the net force.

We know,

⇒ Pressure = Force/Area

⇒ Pressure=\frac{Force }{Area}

⇒ Force =Pressure\times Area

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ Force =4660.95\times 6.51

⇒ Force=30342.78 Newton (N)

So,

The net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

The free body diagram shows a box being pulled to the left up a 25-degree incline
Greeley [361]
The question is incomplete but still I answer to assume your thinking.
The picture is attached below!.
Here,
F is the force with which you pull up the incline.
N is the normal force.
w is the weight acting downward.
Axis are mentioned in the attached picture.
Concept:
You can see there is no movement of object in the y-direction that means acceleration is zero in y-direction, sum of all the forces in y-direction equal to zero.
According to newton second law,
<span>∑ F = ma
</span>As, acceleration is zero in y-direction, so right hand side is zero in the above equation.
<span>∑ F = 0</span>
N-wcosθ=0 
N= m*g*cos25°
N= m*(9.8)*(0.9063)
N= 8.8817*m
By putting the value of mass(m)(not given in the question) you will get the answer.
Hopefully, this is the answer of your question.

Natalie lifts a 15-kg rock from the ground onto a 1.5 meter high wall. what is the amount of potential energy she has given the
Zina [86]
The amount of gravitational potential energy acquired by the rock is equal to:
\Delta U = mg \Delta h
where 
m is the mass of the rock
g is the gravitational acceleration
\Delta h is the increase in height of the rock

Substituting the data of the problem, we find
\Delta U=(15 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.5 m)=220.7 J
So, Natalie gave 220.7 J of energy to the rock.

A flexible shaft consists of a 3 mm diameter steel wire in a flexible hollow tube which imposes a frictional torque of 0.04 N m
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

2.5m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the rotational effect of a force on a body.

The torque T for the maximum shear stress is given as 0.1 Nm

Frictional torque is the torque caused by a frictional force

The frictional torque F is given as 0.04 Nm/m

The maximum length of the shaft is thus given as

L = T / F

  = 0.1/0.04

L= 2.5 m

During an earthquake you should.
White raven [17]

Well, you should TAKE COVER UNDER A STUDY DESK, TABLE OR AGAINST AN INSIDE WALL. Which is C. This is because, doing this protects you from the falling objects. If you do A or B, you will probably get crushed by falling objects because you are exposed. Hope I helped.
