Two lightweight rods 24 cm in length are mounted perpendicular to an axle and at 180 ∘ to each other. At the end of each rod is

a 480-g mass. The rods are spaced 42 cm apart along the axle. The axle rotates at 5.0 rad/s. (a) What is the component of the total angular momentum along the axle? (b) What angle does the vector angular momentum make with the axle? [Hint: Remember that the vector angular momentum must be calculated about the same point for both masses, which could be the cm.]

Answer:

Explanation:

Angular momentum ( L ) = moment of inertia x angular velocity ( I X ω )

Moment of inertia of two  480 g masses about axle = 2 x mr²  = 2 x 480 x10⁻³ x( 24 x 10 ⁻ 2 )²  = 0. 552960  kg m².

Angular velocity = 5 rad / s.

Angular momentum = 0.552960 x 5 = 2.765 kg m2.

The direction of angular momentum will be along axle.So vector angular

momentum  makes zero degree  with axle.

A circuit contains two 1.5 volt battery and a bulb with a resistance of 3 ohms. Calculate the current
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

<em>The current is 1 A</em>

Explanation:

<u>Current in a Series Connection </u>

When two or more elements are connected in series, all of them have the same current, and the sum of their individual voltages is the total voltage applied to the circuit.

According to Ohm's law:

V=R.I

Where V is the voltage, R is the resistance and I is the current of a circuit.

We have a voltage of V=1.5 V + 1.5 V = 3 V and a resistance of R=3 ohms.

We can calculate the current by solving for I:

\displaystyle I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{3}{3}=1\ A

The current is 1 A

Which landform is produced at location E where the Mississippi River enters the Gulf of
mixer [17]

Answer:

a delta

Explanation:

The landform produced at the location E where the Mississippi River enters the Gulf of Mexico is a delta.

A delta is a depositional landform where a smaller body of water enters into a larger one.

The Gulf of Mexico contains a larger body of water and as the Mississippi river enters into it, it splits up into many distributaries.

So, this feature is a delta.

A radar for tracking aircraft broadcasts a 12 GHz microwave beam from a 2.0-m-diameter circular radar antenna. From a wave persp
NISA [10]

A) 750 m

First of all, let's find the wavelength of the microwave. We have

f=12GHz=12\cdot 10^9 Hz is the frequency

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

So the wavelength of the beam is

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{12\cdot 10^9 Hz}=0.025 m

Now we can use the formula of the single-slit diffraction to find the radius of aperture of the beam:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a}

where

m = 1 since we are interested only in the central fringe

D = 30 km = 30,000 m

a = 2.0 m is the aperture of the antenna (which corresponds to the width of the slit)

Substituting, we find

y=\frac{(1)(0.025 m)(30000 m)}{2.0 m}=375 m

and so, the diameter is

d=2y = 750 m

B) 0.23 W/m^2

First we calculate the area of the surface of the microwave at a distance of 30 km. Since the diameter of the circle is 750 m, the radius is

r=\frac{750 m}{2}=375 m

So the area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (375 m)^2=4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2

And since the power is

P=100 kW = 1\cdot 10^5 W

The average intensity is

I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{1\cdot 10^5 W}{4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2}=0.23 W/m^2

In the metric system, the appropriate unit for weight is the _____. gram newton newton/cm2 gram/cm3
Archy [21]

Answer:

Newton

Explanation:

The earth attracts every body towards its centre. The force with which the earth attracts any body towards its centre, is called its weight.

It is a vector quantity.

It always acts towards the centre of earth.

The SI unit of Newton.
