1 answer:
Answer:
w = 0.943 rad / s
Explanation:
For this problem we can use the law of conservation of angular momentum
Starting point. With the mouse in the center
L₀ = I w₀
Where The moment of inertia (I) of a rod that rotates at one end is
I = 1/3 M L²
Final point. When the mouse is at the end of the rod
= I w + m L² w
As the system is formed by the rod and the mouse, the forces during the movement are internal, therefore the angular momentum is conserved
L₀ = L_{f}
I w₀ = (I + m L²) w
w = I / I + m L²) w₀
We substitute the moment of inertia
w = 1/3 M L² / (1/3 M + m) L² w₀
w = 1 / 3M / (M / 3 + m) w₀
We substitute the values
w = 1/3 / (1/3 + 0.02) w₀
w = 0.943 w₀
To finish the calculation the initial angular velocity value is needed, if we assume that this value is w₀ = 1 rad / s
w = 0.943 rad / s

The locks referred to here are the elevators that are used to transport boats safely from one water level to another in dams. These two varying water depths allow river traffic to operate The attached picture shows how boats enter locks in dam sites.
To regulate traffic, there are traffic lights that signal boatmen to adjust their speed when approaching the lock. The red light means to stop and to steer clear away from the lock to allows the boats inside to exit. The green light signals to enter the lock. Lastly, the amber light means approach the lock at a safe speed and under full control.
