A propeller is modeled as five identical uniform rods extending radially from its axis. The length and mass of each rod are 0.77

7 m and 2.67 kg, respectively. When the propellor rotates at 573 rpm (revolutions per minute), what is its rotational kinetic energy?

The formula for the rotational kinetic energy is

KE_{rot} = \frac{1}{2}(number \ of\ propellers)( I)( omega)^{2}

where I is the moment of inertia. This is just mass times the square of the perpendicular distance to the axis of rotation. In other words, the radius of the propeller or this is equivalent to the length of the rod. ω is the angular velocity. We determine I and ω first.

I=m L^{2}=(2.67 \ kg) (0.777 \ m)^{2}  =2.07459 \ kgm^{2}

ω = 573 rev/min * (2π rad/rev) * (1 min/60 s) = 60 rad/s

Then,

KE_{rot} =( \frac{1}{2} )(5)(2.07459 \ kgm^{2}) (60\ rad/s)^{2}

KE_{rot} =18,671.31 \ J

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

I do not have  enough information to tell

Explanation:

This is deduced due to the fact that if the net force due to B and C on A is zero, the charges on B and C could either be positive or negative depending on the charge on A.
