Answer:

Moment of Inertia: It is the property of an object that measures, how much an object can resist it's rotational motion.

We have 4 masses at the corner of square of length L. The formula of moment of inertia will be

                                             I = mL^{2}

<u>Finding the Rotational Inertia of this system</u>

<em>(a) </em><em>that coincides with one side (Ia):</em>

The moment of inertia of each of the two sides is

                                            I = mL^{2}

so, both sides will have the moment of inertia equals to

                                            I = 2mL^{2}

<em>(b) </em><em>that bisects two opposite sides (Ib):</em>

The distance of all four masses from the axis=  L/2

so, the moment of inertia of all four masses will be

                                             I =4m(L/2)^{2}

                                              I =4m(L^{2})/4

The final value will be

                                             I = mL^{2}

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Two long parallel wires each carry the same current I in the same direction. The magnetic field in wire 1 is given by :

B_1=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1}{2\pi r}

Magnetic force acting in wire 2 due to 1 is given by :

F_{2}=I_2lB_1

F_2=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1I_2 l}{2\pi r}

Similarly, force acting in wire 1 is given by :

F_1=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1I_2 l}{2\pi r}According to third law of motion, the force acting in wire 1 will be in opposite direction to wire 2 as :

F_2=-F_1

So, the total magnetic field at the point P midway between the wires is in what direction will be zero as the the direction of forces are in opposite direction.

Find the cost of excavating a space 84 ft long, 42 ft wide, and 9 ft deep at a cost of $39/yd3. (simplify your answer completely
m_a_m_a [10]

The cost of excavating a space of 84 ft long, 42 ft wide, and 9 ft deep is $45864

Information about the problem:

  • Space long= 84 ft
  • Space wide= 42 ft
  • Space deep= 9 ft
  • Cost by yard3 = $39/yd3
  • Total cost= ?

To solve this problem, we have to state the equation using the information of the problem:

Calculating the volume of the total space:

space volume = space long * space wide * space deep

space volume = 84 ft * 42 ft * 9 ft

space volume = 31752 ft3

By converting the volume from ft3 to yd3, we have:

31752 ft3 * (0,037037 yd3 / 1 ft3) = 1176 yd3

Calculating the cost of excavating the volume space:

Total cost = space volume * cost by yard3

Total cost = 1176 yd3 * $39/yd3

Total cost = $45864

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

It is the space occupied by a body, it is calculated by multiplying its dimensions, for example: length, height and width.
