A professor sits on a rotating stool that is spinning at 10.0 rpm while she holds a heavy weight in each of her hands. Her outst

retched hands are 0.795 m from the axis of rotation, which passes through her head into the center of the stool. When she symmetrically pulls the weights in closer to her body, her angular speed increases to 40.5 rpm. Neglecting the mass of the professor, how far are the weights from the rotational axis after she pulls her arms in

Answer:

0.3950m

Explanation:

Use conservation of angular momentum:

Let L be the angular momentum(a vector).

We know that:p=mv, L=l\omega, \ \ \ l=\sum (m_ir_i^2)} and that the two masses have the same radius:

L_o=2mr_o^2\omega_o=L_f=2mr_f^2\omega_f\\\\r_o=0.795m,\omega_o=10\times2\pi \ rad/m , \omega_f=40.5\times 2\pi \ rad/m\\\\\therefore r_f=r_o\sqrt{(w_o/w_f)}\\\\r_f=0.795\sqrt{(10.0/40.5)}\\\\r_f=0.3950m

Hence, the weights are 0.3950m away .

The inductance of a closely packed coil of 560 turns is 8.9 mH. Calculate the magnetic flux through the coil when the current is
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

0.11\times 10^{-6}weber

Explanation:

We have given number of turns N = 560

Inductance L = 8.9 mH

Current through the coil = 7 mA

Inductance of the coil is given as L=\frac{N\Phi }{I}

Where N  is number of turns I is current and \Phi is flux

So \Phi =\frac{LI}{N}=\frac{8.9\times 10^{-3}\times 7\times 10^{-3}}{560}=0.11\times 10^{-6}weber

A car ends up colliding with a tree. Compare the force the car exerts on the tree with the force the tree exerts on the car.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: The force will exert into the tree causing it to absorb the compact hit by the car which means the car gets damaged severely but the tree maybe only has a tiny crack. Mark me as Brainliest! :)
