According to Newton's first law of motion a body continues to be in the state of rest of uniform motion along a straight line unless it's acted upon by an external force to change its state. This means a body on its own cannot change its state its state of rest or state of uniform motion along a straight line. This inability of a body to change by itself its state of rest or uniform motion along a straight line is called inertia of body.

2. A can filled with sand has a mass of 0.65kg is swung overhead in a horizontal circle of radius 0.70m at a constant rate of 2.
Aliun [14]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

≈ 5 Kgm²/sec

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Angular momentum is given by the formula

L = Iω, where I is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular speed.

I = mr², where m is the mass and r is the radius

 = 0.65 × 0.7²

 = 0.3185

Angular speed, ω = v/r

                              = (2 × 3.142 × r × 2.5) r

                              =  15.71

Therefore;

Angular momentum =  Iω

                                 = 0.3185 × 15.71

                                 = 5.003635

                                 <u>≈ 5 Kgm²/sec</u>

Answer:

n_cladding = 1.4764

Explanation:

We are told that θ_max = 5 °

Thus;

θ_max + θ_c = 90°

θ_c = 90° - θ_max

θ_c = 90° - 5°

θ_c = 85°

Now, critical angle is given by;

θ_c = sin^(-1) (n_cladding/n_core)

sin θ_c = (n_cladding/n_core)

n_cladding = (n_core) × sin θ_c

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

n_cladding = 1.482 × sin 85

n_cladding = 1.4764
