4) T F If two objects have the same moment of inertia, they must have the same mass.

Physics

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The moment of inertia for a rigid body is given by

I=\int \rho(r) r^2 dV

where

\rho(V) is the density distribution of the object

r is the distance from the axis of rotation of the object

Essentially, the moment of inertia does not depend only on the mass of the object, but also on its shape. For example: for a solid cylinder, the moment of inertia derived from the formula above is

I=\frac{1}{2}MR^2

where M is the mass of the cylinder and R is its radius. As we see, I (moment of inertia) does not depend on the mass only: therefore, if two objects have same moment of inertia, this does not imply that they also have the same mass.

Gravitational energy can be negative?
AlladinOne [14]

answer:

yes

explanation:

At a separation of the surface of Earth (r=6400km) gravity wants pull the test mass closer and closer. ... So the work done by gravity is NEGATIVE. The gravitational potential energy is negative because us trying to do the opposite of what gravity wants needs positive energy.

What is the rate of acceleration due to gravity on Earth?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Negative 9.8 meters per second squared

Explanation:

The negative is for the direction (down, towards the center of the earth). Often this can be estimated as -10 m/s^2 to make calculations easier.
