Explain in your OWN words what erosion mass wasting means

marishachu [46]

Explanation:

Erosion is the physical removal and transportation of weathered material by water, wind, ice, or gravity. Mass wasting is the transfer or movement of rock or soil down slope primarily by gravity. Rock falls, slumps, and debris flows are all examples of mass wasting.

A potter's wheel is rotating around a vertical axis through its center at a frequency of 2.0 rev/srev/s . The wheel can be consi

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:1.7 rev/s

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of wheel $N_1=2\ rev/s$

angular speed $\omega_1=2\pi N_1=4\pi\ rad/s$

mass of wheel $m_1=4.5\ kg$

diameter of wheel $d_1=0.30\ m=30\ cm$

radius of wheel $r_1=\frac{d_1}{2}=\frac{30}{2}=15\ cm$

mass of clay $m_2=2.8\ kg$

the radius of the chunk of clay $r_2=8\ cm$

Moment of inertia of Wheel

$I_1=\dfrac{m_1r_1^2}{2}=\dfrac{4.5\times 15^2}{2}\ kg-cm^2$

Combined moment of inertia of wheel and clay chunk

$I_2=\dfrac{m_1r_1^2}{2}+\dfrac{m_2r_2^2}{2}=\dfrac{4.5\times 15^2}{2}+\dfrac{2.8\times 8^2}{2}\ kg-cm^2$

Conserving angular momentum

$\Rightarrow I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4.5\times 15^2}{2}\cdot 4\pi=(\dfrac{4.5\times 15^2}{2}+\dfrac{2.8\times 8^2}{2})\omega_2\\\\\Rightarrow \omega _2=\dfrac{4\pi }{1+\dfrac{2.8}{4.5}\times (\dfrac{8}{15})^2}=\dfrac{4\pi}{1+0.1769}=0.849\times 4\pi$
