A rod of mass M = 4 kg, length L = 1.8 meters, and moment of inertia ML2/12 is free to move on a frictionless surface. The rod i

s at rest when a puck of mass m = 0.4 kg approaches with a speed vi = 20 m/s perpendicular to the rod's length and strikes the rod at a point d = 0.3 meters from its lower end. After the collision, the puck moves backward with a speed vf = 10 m/s. The rod's center of mass moves forward with speed v and rotates with angular speed ω. (a) What is the speed v of the rod's center of mass after the collision?

Answer:

The speed of the rod's center of mass after the collision is 6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of rod = 4 kg

Length l = 1.8 m

Moment of inertia I=\dfrac{ML^2}{12}

Mass of puck = 0.4 kg

Initial speed= 20 m/s

Distance = 0.3 m

Final speed = 10 m/s

(a). We need to calculate the speed v of the rod's center of mass after the collision

As there is no external force acting on the system so, linear and angular momentum of the system will be conserved.

Using conservation of momentum

m_{i}v_{i}=m_{f}v_{f}+Mv

Put the value into the formula

0.4\times20=-0.4\times10+2v

v=\dfrac{8+4}{2}

v=6\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the rod's center of mass after the collision is 6 m/s.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

Explanation:

You are camping in the breathtaking mountains if Colorado. You spy an unopened diet soda can floating motionless below the surface of a lake. What is the direction and amount of force the water exerts on it?

A. Zero

B. Down, equal to the can's weight

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

D. Not enough information is given

from the principle of flotation which states that a

When a body displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight, it floats. : A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. ... Archimedes' principle equates the buoyant force to the weight of the fluid displaced.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.

In preparation for the final exam, our astronomy study group has reconvened to discuss Mercury's unique orbital properties. They
grigory [225]

Answer:

The only incorrect statement is from student B

Explanation:

The planet mercury has a period of revolution of 58.7 Earth days and a rotation period around the sun of 87 days 23 ha, approximately 88 Earth days.

Let's examine student claims using these rotation periods

Student A. The time for 4 turns around the sun is

           t = 4 88

           t = 352 / 58.7 Earth days

In this time I make as many rotations on itself each one with a time to = 58.7 Earth days

           #_rotaciones = t / to

           #_rotations = 352 / 58.7

           #_rotations = 6

therefore this statement is TRUE

student B. the planet rotates 6 times around the Sun

          t = 6 88

          t = 528 s

The number of rotations on itself is

           #_rotaciones = t / to

           #_rotations = 528 / 58.7

           #_rotations = 9

False, turn 9 times

Student C. 8 turns around the sun

           t = 8 88

           t = 704 days

the number of turns on itself is

            #_rotaciones = t / to

            #_rotations = 704 / 58.7

            #_rotations = 12

True

The only incorrect statement is from student B

The potential energy of a 1.7 x 10-3 kg particle is described by U (x )space equals space minus (17 space J )space cos open squa
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a particle of mass

M = 1.7 × 10^-3 kg

Given a potential as a function of x

U(x) = -17 J Cos[x/0.35 m]

U(x) = -17 Cos(x/0.35)

Angular frequency at x = 0

Let find the force at x = 0

F = dU/dx

F = -17 × -Sin(x/0.35) / 0.35

F = 48.57 Sin(x/0.35)

At x = 0

Sin(0) =0

Then,

F = 0 N

So, from hooke's law

F = -kx

Then,

0 = -kx

This shows that k = 0

Then, angular frequency can be calculated using

ω = √(k/m)

So, since k = 0 at x = 0

Then,

ω = √0/m

ω = √0

ω = 0 rad/s

So, the angular frequency is 0 rad/s
