Does a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis satisfy the first and second conditions for equilibrium?

Physics
1 answer:
Vladimir [108]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis does not satisfy both the condition of equilibrium .

First condition of equilibrium is that net force on the body should be zero.

or F net = 0

A body under uniform rotation is experiencing a centripetal force all the time so F net ≠ 0

So first condition of equilibrium is not satisfied.

Second condition is that , net torque acting on the body  must be zero.

In case of a rigid object in uniform rotation , centripetal force is applied towards the centre ie  towards the  line joining the body under rotation with the axis .

F is along r

torque = r x F

= r F sinθ

θ = 0 degree

torque = 0

Hence 2nd condition is fulfilled.

A digital thermometer reads 15 degrees Celsius, what is the uncertainty?
Artyom0805 [142]

The uncertainty of the accurate measurement of temperature with a digital thermometer ranges from -1 to +1. So, here in this case, the uncertainty in temperature will be 14 degree to 16 degree Celsius.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Uncertainty in Measurement

The measurements of objects we observe through our eyes using analog or digital equipment, have some uncertainties. it's not surely the accurate measurement that we observe. Hence, while taking measurements, we must have taken an uncertainty range in the values.

For example, if we take a digital thermometer, which measures the temperature as 15 degree Celsius; it means that the accurate temperature may vary from by the difference of either -1 or + 1 i.e., either 14 degree Celsius or 16 degree Celsius. The same way, the uncertainty range is -0.5 to +0.5 when we use analog thermometer.

Translate the word phrase into an algebraic equation: the quotient of 22 and 2 is equal to 11.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

22/2 = 11

Explanation:

A quotient means the result of a division problem. When it says the quotient of a and b, this means of "a divided by b". Remember to always go in the right order, because in division, order matters.

Therefore the quotient of 22 and 2 is equal to 11 is written: 22/2 = 11

A closed circuit is formed by a solid conductor in contact with two parallel conducting rails that are closed on their left end,
castortr0y [4]

this is an equation that you need to solve for motional emf. motional emf=vBL, where v is velocity in meters/second, B is magnetic field in Teslas and L is length or distance the rails are apart from each other. when we plug everything into the formula given above, we get: motional emf=5m/s*0.80T*0.20m. solving all this we get 0.8 volts. pretty sure that since they are giving you the direction of the field, they want to know which way the current will flow . since the conductor is moving from left to right the area of the field is increasing which means magnetic flux is increasing as Ф(magnetic flux)=B(magnetic field)*A(area)*cosФ(little phi is the angle to the normal. in this case little fee is 0 degrees so the cosФ doesn't matter). so ↑Ф=B↑A. if magnetic flux is increasing, the induced magnetic field is in the opposite direction as the original magnetic field meaning the induced magnetic field will be out of the page. using the right hand rule which says that if the field is in to the page, the current should go clockwise and if the field is out of the page, the current is counterclockwise so that means that the current should be going counter clockwise since the induced field is going out of the screen. the top of the conducting wire will have its current go to the left and the bottom of the conducting wire will have the current go to the right.

Which of the following statements describes a compound machine?
ASHA 777 [7]
From the word compound, the compound machine is already a combination of two or more types of simple machine. Thus, the answer is letter C. Because of its complexity, it is able to perform several other functions than a simple one.
