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}

Answer:

William Ferrel created a tide-prediction machine.

Explanation:

  • William Ferrel create a machine in late 19th century that was the best combination of mechanical parts and computer coding.
  • It was a mechanical analog computer that could predict the ebb of tides and even the height of tides that could be irregular.
  • It was widely used for marine networks and navigation. Later on many improvisations and additional features were added on it.
  • During the world war times, this tide prediction machine was of great use for military purpose.

What is an example of a negative incentive for producers
Hatshy [7]

An example of a negative incentive for producers is the sharp increase in production costs. Producers are the one who manage the production costs and even the production budget. Anything that relates the production department is entitled to the management of production producers.

There is what we called positive and negative incentives and both of these can affect consumers and producers. Positive incentives are those situations which will give a certain outcome that will benefit the producers, for example, during the peak season there will be a high demand of products, and this gives the chance of producers to demand a higher price from the consumers, in this situation, there will be a big chance of increase sales.  A sharp increase in production costs is a loss for the producers.  If there will be an increase in production costs, the budget will be greatly affective and even though it is not a peak season, there’s a big chance also to increase prices which we know, consumers are not fond of.

Use the following half-life graph to answer the following question:
Temka [501]

Answer:

A 1.0 min

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioisotope is defined as the time it takes for the mass of the isotope to halve compared to the initial value.

From the graph in the problem, we see that the initial mass of the isotope at time t=0 is

m_0 = 50.0 g

The half-life of the isotope is the time it takes for half the mass of the sample to decay, so it is the time t at which the mass will be halved:

m'=\frac{50.0 g}{2}=25.0 g

We see that this occurs at t = 1.0 min, so the half-life of the isotope is exactly 1.0 min.
