Answer:

When her hands extends, her momen of inertia is 4.28\ kg-m^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular speed, \omega_i=8\ rad/s

Initial moment of inertia, I_1=100\ kg-m^2

Final angular speed, \omega_f=7\ rad/s

Initially, a skater rotates with her arms crossed and finally she extends her arms. The momentum remains conserved. Using the conservation of momentum as :

I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2

I_2 is final moment of inertia

I_2=\dfrac{I_1\omega_1}{\omega_2}\\\\I_2=\dfrac{100\times 8}{7}\\\\I_2=114.28\ kg-m^2

So, when her hands extends, her momen of inertia is 4.28\ kg-m^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The  kinetic energy is KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  radius of the orbit is  r =  2.3 *10^{4} \ km  = 2.3  *10^{7} \ m

       The gravitational force is  F_g  = 6600 \ N

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * mv^2

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

     v  = \sqrt{\frac{G  M}{r^2} }

=>  v^2  =  \frac{GM }{r}

substituting this into the equation

      KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

      F_g  = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where M is the mass of the planet and  m is the mass of the satellite

 Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

     KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r

=>    KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r

substituting values

       KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}

         KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

A ball is thrown at an angle of 38° to the horizontal. What happens to the
finlep [7]

Answer:

Vy = V0 sin 38       where Vy is the initial vertical velocity

The ball will accelerate downwards (until it lands)

Note the signs involved   if Vy is positive then g must be negative

The acceleration is constant until the ball lands

t (upwards) = (0 - Vy) / -g      = Vy / g      final velocity = 0

t(downwards = (-Vy - 0) / -g = Vy / g      final velocity = -Vy

time upwards = time downwards     (conservation laws)

A charge of 8.5 × 10–6 C is in an electric field that has a strength of 3.2 × 105 N/C. What is the electric force acting on the
Sonja [21]

2.72 N

Explanation:

Step 1:

From the basic formula in electrostatics

F = E * q

where F = Force due to charges

           E = Electric field strength

           q = Charge

Step 2:

From the given question

q= 8.5*10^{-6} C

E = 3.2 * 10^{5} N/C

F = 8.5 * 10^{-6} * 3.2 * 10^{5} = 2.72 N
