Consider two identical insulated metal spheres, A and B. Sphere A initially has a charge of -6.0 units and sphere B initially ha

s an initial charge of 2.0 units. The sphere are brought in contact with each other for a short time and then separated again. What is the charge on each sphere afterward

Answer:

<em>-2 units of charge</em>

Explanation:

charge on A = Qa = -6 units

charge on B = Qb = 2 units

if the spheres are brought in contact with each other, the resultant charge will be evenly distributed on the spheres when they are finally separated.

charge on each sphere will be = $\frac{Qa + Qb}{2}$

charge on each sphere = $\frac{-6 + 2}{2}$ = $\frac{-4}{2}$ = <em>-2 units of charge</em>

Calculate the air pressure in the pressurized tank, if h1 = 0. 18 m, h2 = 0. 2m and h3 = 0. 25m. The density of the mercury, wat

fomenos

The air pressure in the pressurized tank will be 24014.88 N/m²,196.2 N/m²,2084.625 N/m².

<h3 /><h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

Pressure is found as the product of the density,acceleraton due to gravity and the height.

P₁=ρ₁gh₁

P₁=13,600 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×0.18 m

P₁=24014.88 N/m²

P₂=ρ₂gh₂

P₂= 1000 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×00.2 m

P₂=196.2 N/m²

P₃=ρ₃gh₃

P₃=850 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×0.25

P₃=2084.625 N/m²

Hence,the air pressure in the pressurized tank will be 24014.88 N/m²,196.2 N/m²,2084.625 N/m².

A block (mass = 61.2 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1/2MR2 kg · m2, wh

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m = 61.2kg$

The of the pulley is $M = 14.2 kg$

The radius of the pulley is $R = 1.5m$

The radius of the cord around the pulley is $r = 1.5 m$

The distance of the block to the floor is $d = 8.0 m$

From the question we are told that the moment of inertia of the pulley is

$I = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 kg \cdot m^2$

Substituting value

$I = \frac{1}{2} * 14.2 * (1.5)^2$

$I = 15.975 kg \cdot m^2$

Using the Newtons law we can express the force acting on the vertical axis as

$ma = mg -T$

=> $T = mg -ma$

Now when the pulley is rotated that torque generated on the massless cord as a r result of the tension T and the radius of the cord around the pulley is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I \alpha$

Here $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

Here $\tau$ is the torque which can be equivalent to

$\tau = T r$

Substituting this above

$Tr = I \alpha$

Substituting for T

$(mg - ma ) r = I\ r \alpha$

Here $a$ is the linear acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$a = r\alpha$

$(mg - m(r\alpha ) ) r = I\ r \alpha$

$mgr = I\alpha + m(r\alpha ) r$

$mgr = \alpha [ I + mr^2]$

making $\alpha$ the subject

$\alpha = \frac{mgr}{I -mr ^2}$

Substituting values

$\alpha = \frac{61.2 * 1.5 * 9.8}{15.975 + (61.2 ) * (1.5)^2}$

$\alpha =5.854 rad /s^2$

Now substituting into the equation above to obtain the acceleration

$a = 5.854 * 1.5$

$a=8.78 m/s^2$

This acceleration is $a = \frac{v}{t}$

and v is the linear velocity with is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

Substituting this into the formula acceleration

$a = \frac{d}{t^2}$

making t the subject

$t = \sqrt{\frac{d}{a} }$

substituting value

$t = \sqrt{\frac{8}{8.78}}$

$t = 0.9545 \ s$

Now the linear velocity is

$v = \frac{8}{0.9545}$

$v = 8.38 m/s$

The angular velocity is

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

So

$w = \frac{8.38}{1.5}$

$w = 5.59 rad/s$

Generally 1 radian is equal to 0.159155 rounds or turns

So 5.59 radian is equal to x

Now x is mathematically obtained as

$x = \frac{5.59 * 0.159155}{1}$

$= 0.8892 \ rounds$

Also

60 second = 1 minute

So 1 second = z

Now z is mathematically obtained as

$z = \frac{ 1}{60}$

z $= 0.01667 \ minute$

Therefore

$w = \frac{0.8892}{0.01667}$

$w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

Two disks of identical mass but different radii (r and 2r) are spinning on frictionless bearings at the same angular speed ?0, b

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of a disc = 1/2 M R²

Since mass is same for both and radius are r and 2r, their moment of inertia can be in the ratio of 1: 4 . Let them be I and 4I . Angular speed are ω₀ and - ω₀ .

We shall apply law of conservation of angular momentum .

initial total angular momentum

I x ω₀ - 4I x ω₀ = - 3Iω₀

Let final common angular momentum be ω

total final angular momentum = ( I + 4I ) ω

Applying law of conservation of angular momentum

( I + 4I ) ω = - 3Iω₀

ω = - 3 / 5 ω₀ .

b )

Initial total rotational K E

= 1/2 I ω₀² + 1/2 4I ω₀²

= 1/2 x5I ω₀²

Final total rotational K E

= 1/2 ( I + 4I ) ( - 3 / 5 ω₀ )²

= 1/2 x 9 / 5 I ω₀²

= 9 / 10I ω₀²

change in rotational kinetic energy = 9 / 10I ω₀² - 1/2 x5I ω₀²

(9/10 - 5/2) xI ω₀²

=( .9 - 2.5 )I ω₀²

= - 1.6 I ω₀² Ans
