An ice skater spins at 2.5 rev/s when his arms are extended. He draws his arms in and spins at 10.0 rev/s. By what factor does h

is moment of inertia change in the process?

Rainbow [258]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The moment of inertia decreased by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Given;

initial angular velocity of the ice skater, ω₁ = 2.5 rev/s

final angular velocity of the  ice skater, ω₂ = 10.0 rev/s

During this process we assume that angular momentum is conserved;

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

Where;

I₁ is the initial moment of inertia

I₂ is the final moment of inertia

I_2 = \frac{I_1 \omega_1}{\omega_2} = \frac{I_1*2.5}{10} \\\\I_2 = 0.25I_1 = \frac{1}{4}I_1

Therefore, the moment of inertia decreased by a factor of 4

Answer:

Stationary

20N

Explanation:

From the graph, we see that the body traveling is on a fixed position. Therefore, it is a stationary body.

The graph given is a position - time curve.

 This curve depict a body changing position with given time.

Since the line of the curve is on a single position, the body is not changing position with the passage of time therefore, it is a stationary object.

B. 20N

From Newton's third law of motion we understand that "action and reaction force are equal but oppositely directed".

 Since the person is exerting a force of 20N on the balance.

So, the reaction force by the balance is 20N upward.

A material you are testing conducts electricity but cannot be pulled into wires. It is most likely a _____.
notsponge [240]

Answer: The correct answer is "metalloid".

Explanation:

Metal is the material which can conduct electricity as it contains free electrons. It is good conductor of electricity. For example, copper, silver.

Metal can be drawn into wires. This property of material is called ductile.

Metal can be beaten into sheets. This property of material is called malleable.

Non metal is the material which cannot conduct electricity as it does not contain free electrons. They are poor conductor of electricity. For example, oxygen.

Metalloid: It has properties of both metals and non metal. It is electrical conductor. For example, semiconductor- silicon and germanium. But they cannot be pulled into wires.

Therefore, a material you are testing conducts electricity but cannot be pulled into wires. It is most likely a metalloid.

Assume your mass is 60 kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work against gravity do you do when you climb
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

W=1705.2 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 60 kg

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

Height ,h= 2.9 m

As we know that work done by a force given as

W = F . d

F=force

d=Displacement

W=work done by force

Now by putting the values

F= m g (Acting downward  )

d= h  (Upward)

W= m g h    ( work done against the force)

W= 60 x 9.8 x 2.9 J

W=1705.2 J

Therefore the answer will be 1705.2 J.
