What is the rotational inertia of an object that rolls without slipping down a 2.00-m-high incline starting from rest, and has a

final speed of 6.00 m/s at the bottom? Express the rotational inertia as a multiple of mr^2, where is the mass of the object and is its radius

We will apply the concepts of energy conservation to solve the problem. We know that gravitational potential energy is equivalent to the sum of translational kinetic energy and rotational kinetic energy. Additionally, the relation of the angular velocity with the tangential velocity will be determined to eliminate the angular term and obtain the expression of the Inertia in terms of the data given, therefore, we know that

PE_{g} = KE_{trans} +KE_{rot}

mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2+\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

The angular velocity in terms of tangential velocity and radius is defined as,

\omega = \frac{v}{R}

Replacing,

mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2+\frac{1}{2} I(\frac{v}{R})^2

Multiplying by R^2,

gh(mR^2) = \frac{v^2}{2} (mR^2)+\frac{v^2}{2}I

\frac{v^2}{2}I = (gh-\frac{v^2}{2})mR^2

I = (\frac{2gh}{v^2}-1)mR^2

Replacing with our values we have,

I = (\frac{2(9.8)(2)}{6^2}-1)mR^2

I = 0.089mR^2

If a 20 g cannonball is shot from a 5 kg cannon with a velocity of 100
balu736 [363]

Strange as it may seem, the statement in the question appears to be <em>TRUE</em>.  

-- Before the shot, neither the cannon nor the ball is moving, so their combined momentum is zero.  

-- Since momentum is conserved, we know immediately that their combined momentum AFTER the shot also has to be zero.

-- (20g is rather puny for a "cannonball" ... about the same weight as four nickels. But we'll take your word for it and just do the Math and the Physics.)

-- Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)

After the shot, the momentum of the cannonball is

(0.02 kg) x (100 m/s ==> that way)

Momentum of the ball = 2 kg-m/s ==> that way.

-- In order for both of them to add up to zero, the momentum of the cannon must be (2 kg-m/s this way <==) .

Momentum of cannon = (5 kg) x (V m/s this way <==)

2 kg-m/s this way <== = (5 kg) x (V m/s this way <==)

Divide each side by (5 kg):

V m/s  =  (2/5) m/s this way <==

Speed of recoil of the cannon = <em>-- 0.4 m/s</em>

Knowing Newton’s 2nd Law, how would you rearrange it to solve for acceleration.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Force / mass

Explanation:

Divide mass on both sides to get acceleration by itself leaving you with mass below force hence divide force by mass

The length of your eye decreases slightly as you age, making the lens a bit closer to the retina. Suppose a man had his vision s
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

<h2>A. Nearsightedness</h2>

Explanation:

A nearsightedness is an eye defect that occurs when someone is only able to see close ranged object but not far distance object. According to the question, if the length of my eye decreases slightly as I age, this means there is a possibility that I will find it difficult to view a far distance object as I age.

At 70, once my eyes had decreased slightly in length, this means I will only be able to see close ranged object but not far distant object, showing that I am now suffering from nearsightedness according to its definition above.
