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

Which is present when iodine changes from brown to blue or purple?
vladimir1956 [14]


If iodine is added to a starch solution, they react with each other and the iodine  darkens to an almost pitch black.

however, if iodine is added to a solution containing no starch, it will show up only as an extremely pale brown. almost colorless and hardly visible.

when following the changes in some inorganic oxidation reduction reactions, iodine may be used as an indicator to follow the changes of iodide ion and iodine element. soluble starch solution is added. only iodine element in the presence of iodide ion will give the characteristic blue black color. neither iodine element alone nor iodide ions alone will give the color result.

hope this answer really helps your question :)

A box slides down a 31° ramp with an acceleration of 0.99 m/s2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box an
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:\mu=0.48

Explanation:

Given

inclination \theta =31^{\circ}

Acceleration of object=0.99 m/s^2

Now using FBD

mg\sin \theta -f_r=ma

mg\sin \theta -\mu mg\cos \theta =ma

a=g\sin \theta -\mu g\cos \theta

0.99=5.04-\mu 8.4

\mu 8.4=4.057

\mu =0.48

Why is it that an object can accelerate while
posledela

For the same reason that you can skate around a curve at constant speed but not with constant velocity.

The DIRECTION you're going is part of your velocity, but it's not part of your speed.

If the DIRECTION changes, that's a change of velocity.

The object doesn't have to change speed to have a different velocity. A change of direction is enough to do it.

And any change of velocity is called acceleration.
