Answer:

The angular acceleration α = 14.7 rad/s²

Explanation:

The torque on the rod τ = Iα where I = moment of inertia of rod = mL²/12 where m =mass of rod  and L = length of rod = 4.00 m. α = angular acceleration of rod

Also, τ = Wr where W = weight of rod = mg and r = center of mass of rod = L/2.

So Iα = Wr

Substituting the value of the variables, we have

mL²α/12 = mgL/2

Simplifying by dividing through by mL, we have

mL²α/12mL = mgL/2mL

Lα/12 = g/2

multiplying both sides by 12, we have

Lα/12 × 12 = g/2 × 12

αL = 6g

α = 6g/L

α = 6 × 9.8 m/s² ÷ 4.00 m

α = 58.8 m/s² ÷ 4.00 m

α = 14.7 rad/s²

So, the angular acceleration α = 14.7 rad/s²

Evgesh-ka [11]
Change in pressure : 772-753 = 19 mm Hg 
Since 1 mm Hg = 133 Pa Hg
 Then, 19 mm Hg = 2527 Pa Hg
 Area of rectangular pool = L* B = 11 x 21 = 231 m^2
 To find the force, we multiply the area by the change in pressure: 2527 (231) = 583737N

goblinko [34]

Answer:

1.034 m above the floor

Explanation:

The location of center of body for a compound body, when the weights are given is calculated as:

\bar x = \frac{W_1x_1+W_2x_2+W_3x_3+W_4x_4+W_5x_5+.......+Wnx_n}{W_1+W_2W_3W_4W_5+.....+W_n}

where,

\bar x is the center of gravity of the entire body

W = weight of the individual body

x = center of gravity of the individual body

Thus on substituting the values we get,

\bar x = \frac{438\times 1.28+144\times 0.760+87\times 0.250}{438+144+87}

or

\bar x = \frac{691.83}{669}

or

\bar x =1.034m

Hence, <u>the center of gravity of the entire body lies </u><u>1.034 m</u><u> </u><u>above the floor</u>

What is the answer to this problem
vredina [299]

420 m of total distance is covered by the skier on travelling from A to D.

Explanation:

As from the picture, it can be seen that first the skier moved from position A to position B. And the distance covered by this movement is 180 m. Then as the skier travels from position B to position C, the distance between these two positions is 140 m from the figure. As distance is a scalar quantity, the direction is not taken into consideration. So only the magnitudes of the distance between those points are added.

Now, the distance between A to B is 180 m and then from B to C is 140 m,  atlast from C to D, the distance is given as 100 m.

So, the total distance will be the sum of all the above found distances. Thus, the total distance will be 180+140+100 = 420 m.

As the question is about distance, so no need to write the direction for it.

Thus, the final answer will be 420 m of total distance is covered by the skier on travelling from A to D.

A squash ball with an initial velocity of 19.21 m/s [W] is hit by a squash racket, changing its velocity to 40.22 m/s [E] in 0.3
alexgriva [62]

Acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time for the change)

Change in velocity = 59.43 m/s East

Time for the change = 0.312 s

Acceleration = 190.5 m/s^2 East
