L = length of the meter stick = 1 m
h = height of center of mass of stick from bottom end on the floor = L/2 = 1/2 = 0.5 m
m = mass of the meter stick
I = moment of inertia of the meter stick about the bottom end
w = angular velocity as it hits the floor
moment of inertia of the meter stick about the bottom end is given as
I = m L²/3
using conservation of energy
rotational kinetic energy of meter stick as it hits the floor = potential energy when it is vertical
(0.5) I w² = m g h
(0.5) (m L²/3) w² = m g h
( L²) w² = 6g h
( 1²) w² = 6 (9.8) (0.5)
w = 5.4 rad/s
C ,vehicles get stuck in the middle of an intersection
Answer:
Explanation:
Weight is actually a force. A force can change depending on its location. A mass remains constant no matter where it is.
A)
F = m * a
m = 250 kg
a = 9.81 m/s^2
F = 250 * 9.81 = 2452.5 N
B)
The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is roughly 1/6 what it is on earth. You can check its value in your notes.
a = 9.81 + (1/6) = 1.635
m = 250
F = 250 * 1.635
F = 408.75
C)
The mass is the same anywhere in the universe.
250 kg
True, the definition of "centripetal force" is <span>a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed toward the center around which the body is moving.</span>
