A skater extends her arms, holding a 2 kg mass in each hand. She is rotating about a vertical axis at a given rate. She brings h

er arms inward toward her body in such a way that the distance of each mass from the axis changes from 1.00 to 0.50 m. Her rate of rotation (neglecting the mass of the skater) will the final angular velocity (in rev/s) be if her moment of inertia remains approximately constant at 5kg(m2), and the distance of the masses from the axis changes from 1 m to 0.1m?a. 6b. 3c. 9d. 4e. 7

Explanation:

It is known that relation between torque and angular acceleration is as follows.

                    \tau = I \times \alpha

and,       I = \sum mr^{2}

So,      I_{1} = 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2}

                       = 4 kg m^{2}

      \tau_{1} = 4 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{1}

     \tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}

So,      I_{2} = 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2}

                     = 1 kg m^{2}

 as \tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}

                   = 1 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{2}        

Hence,     \tau_{1} = \tau_{2}

                  4 \alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2}

            \alpha_{1} = \frac{1}{4} \alpha_{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the new rotation is \frac{1}{4} times that of the first rotation rate.

Answer:

serie Ceq=0.678 10⁻⁶ F  and the charge Q = 9.49 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

Let's calculate all capacity values

a) The equivalent capacitance of series capacitors

    1 / Ceq = 1 / C1 + 1 / C2 + 1 / C3 + 1 / C4 + 1 / C5

    1 / Ceq = 1 / 1.5 + 1 / 3.3 + 1 / 5.5 + 1 / 6.2 + 1 / 6.2

    1 / Ceq = 1 / 1.5 + 1 / 3.3 + 1 / 5.5 + 2 / 6.2

    1 / Ceq = 0.666 + 0.3030 +0.1818 +0.3225

    1 / Ceq = 1,147

    Ceq = 0.678 10⁻⁶ F

b) Let's calculate the total system load

   Dv = Q / Ceq

   Q = DV Ceq

   Q = 14 0.678 10⁻⁶

   Q = 9.49 10⁻⁶ C

In a series system the load is constant in all capacitors, therefore, the load in capacitor 5.5 is Q = 9.49 10⁻⁶ C

c) The potential difference

   ΔV = Q / C5

   ΔV = 9.49 10⁻⁶ / 5.5 10⁻⁶

   ΔV = 1,725 ​​V

d) The energy stores is

    U = ½ C V²

    U = ½ 0.678 10-6 14²

    U = 66.4 10⁻⁶ J

e) Parallel system

   Ceq = C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5

   Ceq = (1.5 +3.3 +5.5 +6.2 +6.2) 10⁻⁶

   Ceq = 22.7 10⁻⁶ F

f) In the parallel system the voltage is maintained

   Q5 = C5 V

   Q5 = 5.5 10⁻⁶ 14

   Q5 = 77 10⁻⁶ C

g) The voltage is constant V5 = 14 V

h) Energy stores

   U = ½ C V²

   U = ½ 22.7 10-6 14²

   U = 2.2 10⁻³ J

A motorcycle traveling at 25 m/s accelerates at a rate of 6 m/s2 for 4 seconds. What is the final speed of the motorcycle in m/s
givi [52]

Initial velocity = Vo= 25 m/s

Final velocity = V = x

Acceleration= a = 6 m/s^2

time= t = 4 seconds

Appy the equation:

V = Vo + at

Replacing:

V = 25 + 6(4) = 25 + 24 = 49 m/s

What selective pressures favored an increase in brain size in hominid primates?
Viktor [21]
The colossal brains of people are to a great extent because of one segment the cerebral cortex. The cerebral cortex is the focal point of dialect, rationale, critical thinking, and data preparing. A high bent in these territories would be exceptionally favorable to primitive seekers.
