In a physics lab experiment for the determination of moment of inertia, a team weighs an object and finds a mass of 2.15 kg. The
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

0.339 kgm²

Explanation:

We know the period of this pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of the object about the pivot axis, m = mass of object = 2.15 kg, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of center of mass of object from pivot point = 0.163 m.

Since T = 2π√(I/mgh), making I subject of the formula, we have

I = mghT²/4π²

Now since it takes 241 s to complete 113 cycles, then it takes 241 s/113 cycles to complete one cycle.

So, T = 241 s/113 = 2.133 s

So, Substituting the values of the variables into I, we have

I = mghT²/4π²

I = 2.15 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.163 m × (2.133 s)²/4π²

I = 15.63/4π² kgm²

I = 0.396 kgm²

Now from the parallel axis theorem, I = I' + mh² where I' = moment of inertia of object with respect to its center of mass about an axis parallel to the pivot axis

I' = I - mh²

I' = 0.396 kgm² - 2.15 kg × (0.163 m)²

I' = 0.396 kgm² - 0.057 kgm²

I' = 0.339 kgm²

How is it possible for a person watching a baseball game on TV to hear sounds before someone who is actually watching the same g
Andreyy89

Answer:

It is possible because, the TV broadcast audio and video signals in radio frequency which travels at the speed of light while the audio signals travel to those present in the stadium at the speed of sound which is over eight hundred thousand times slower than the speed of light

Explanation:

It is possible because of the following;

1. TV signals from the camera (including the captured sound) very close to the field of play are transmitted through the radio frequency bands and as such are a form of electromagnetic radiation that travels at the speed of light which is about 300,000 km/second

It will therefore, take 1 second for a sound of the game to reach someone located at 300,000,000 meters watching a live televised game

2. The speed of sound is about 343 m/second and it therefore takes up to 2 seconds for a sound to reach someone 686 meters away from the ball in the stadium.

A 0.0100-kilogram grape hangs from a vine 1.50 meters from the ground. What is the potential energy of the grape?
ludmilkaskok [199]
The potential energy is defined as Ep=m*g*h where m is the mass of the body, g=9.81 m/s² and h is the height of the body. In our case m=0.01 kg and h=1.5 m. So when we input the values into the equation:

Ep=0.01*9.81*1.5= 0.14715 J. 

So the potential energy of a grape is Ep=0.14715 J.

Weddell seals make holes in sea ice so that they can swim down to forage on the ocean floor below. Measurements for one seal sho
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

B. 1 m/s

Explanation:

Metric unit conversions:

0.3 km = 300m

5 minutes = 5*60 = 300 seconds

So if a seal can reach a depth of 300m in a time of 300 seconds, its diving speed is the distance divided by time duration

v = s/t = 300/300 = 1m/s

So B is the correct answer
