Answer:

a. Rotational inertia: 5.21kgm²

b. Magnitude of it's angular momentum: 123.32kgm²/s

Explanation:

Length of the rod = 3.46m

Weight of the rod = 12.8 N

Angular velocity of the rod= 226 rev/min

a. Rotational Inertia (I) about its axis

The formula for rotational inertia =

I = (1/12×m×L²) + m × ( L ÷ 2)²

Where L = length of the rod

m = mass of the rod

Mass of the rod is calculated by dividing the weight of the rod with the acceleration due to gravity.

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

Mass of the rod = 12.8N/ 9.81m/s²

Mass of the rod = 1.305kg

Rotational Inertia =

(1/12× 1.305 × 3.46²)+ 1.305 ( 3.46÷2)²

Rotational Inertia =  1.3019115 + 3.9057345

Rotational Inertia = 5.207646kgm²

Approximately = 5.21kgm²

b. The magnitude of the rod's angular momentum about the rotational axis is calculated as

Rotational Inertia about its axis × angular speed of the rod.

Angular speed of the rod is calculated as= (Angular velocity of the rod × 2π)/60

= (226×2π) /60

= 23.67 rad/s

Rotational Inertia = 5.21kgm²

The magnitude of the rod's angular momentum about the rotational axis

= 5.21kgm²× 23.67 rad/s

= 123.3207kgm²/s

Approximately = 123.32kgm²/s

9. Since current is the rate at which charge is flowing, if the current in the circuit decreases, what does that mean about the
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit from point one point to another. This is carried by electrically charged particles within the circuit. Current is represented by the symbol I and its unit measured in Amperes. It is therefore related to the voltage and resistance of the circuit. If the current in the circuit reduces, the rate at which the charge and current on the capacitor reduces also proportionally in an exponential manner.

Explanation:

Since a decrease in the flow of current in the circuit is observed, the implication for the rate at which the charge and voltage on the capacitor is also an exponential decrease in the rate of flow with time. This is because the electric current is directly proportional to the electric charge and the time.
