A sphere of uniform density with mass 21 kg and radius 0.8 m is spinning, making one complete revolution every 0.8 s. the center
kompoz [17]
Using the equation;
TE = 1/2mv^2(1+2); where k = 2/5 for a solid sphere; V is the velocity, and m is the mass.
Total energy = 0.5 × 21 × 8² (7/5)
                    = 940.8 J
The rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is 940.8 J

A body accelerate uniformly from rest at the rate of 3meters per seconds for 8 sec . calculate the distance covered by the body
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

96 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 3 m/s²

t = 8 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (8 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (8 s)²

Δx = 96 m
