Answer:

rotational kinetic energy of the forearm is 593.6Joules

Explanation:

Rotational kinetic energy is expressed as shown

(K.E)r = 1/2Iω²

I is the moment of inertia

ω is the angular velocity

Given I = 0.550kgm²

ω = v/r

v is the linear velocity of the ball relative to the elbow

r is the distance

ω = 22.3/0.48

ω = 46.46rad/s

Rotational kinetic energy = 1/2×0.55×46.46²

= 0.55×1079.27

= 593.6Joules

If the speed of a wave doubles while the frequency remains the same, it means
sattari [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of a wave is describe as

velocity =Frequency × Wavelength

Mathematically

v = fλ

Hence, Frequency, F = v / λ

Wavelength λ = v/f

So, if the frequency is kept constant, wavelength of the wave becomes directly proportional to velocity of the wave.

And this implies that, as the speed double, the wavelength is double.

A gas occupies a volume of 20 cubic meters at 9,000 pascals. If the pressure is lowered to 5,000 pascals, what volume will the g
forsale [732]
We need to consider no change in the temperature of gas (isothermal transformation)

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional magnitudes, so we can write:

P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2\\&#10;\\&#10;9.20=5.V_2\\&#10;\\&#10;V_2=\frac{180}{5}=36 \ m^3

In a closed system, a cart with a mass of 1.5 kg is rolling to the right at 1.4 m/s, while another cart of mass 1.0 kg is rollin
bija089 [108]

Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s

P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum =P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s

Hence, the correct option is (c.).
