Answer:

The moment of inertia is I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is equal:

I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dm

If r is -\frac{a}{2}

and dm=\frac{M}{a} dr

I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2}\frac{M}{a}  } \, dr\\a=\frac{a}{2} \\b=-\frac{a}{2}

I=\frac{M}{a} \int\limits^a_b {r^{2}  } \, dr\\\\I=\frac{M}{a} (\frac{M}{3} )_{b}^{a}\\  I=\frac{M}{3a} (\frac{a^{3} }{8} +\frac{a^{3} }{8} )\\I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}

The speed of light in vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 m/s. A beam of light has a wavelength of 651 nm in vacuum. This light propag
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

v=2.58\times10^8m/s

Explanation:

The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum divided by its speed v in a substance, or n=\frac{c}{v}. For our case we want to use v=\frac{c}{n}, which for our values is equal to:

v=\frac{c}{n}=\frac{299792458m/s}{1.16}=258441774.138m/s

Which we will express with 3 significant figures (since a product or quotient must contain the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the  <em>least</em> number of significant figures):

v=2.58\times10^8m/s

Angelina jumps off a stool. As she is falling, the Earth’s gravitational force on her is larger in magnitude than the gravitatio
valentinak56 [21]
The answer is True. The amount force exerted by any object is directly proportional to its mass. This means that our planet is exerting more gravitational force to Angelina, and Angelina is also exerting a gravitational force on our planet directly proportional to her mass. Angelina is actually falling towards the center of the earth,and also our planet is also moving towards Angelina, but it seems negligible with respect to Angelina.Our Sun is so massive that it held our planet in its orbit because of its gravitational force.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

It is equal to the overall momentum before collision, so far no external object is involved.

Explanation:

Momentum is always conserved during collision as a rule. This is equal to the product of the mass and velocity. Thank you.
