A student sits at rest on a piano stool that can rotate without friction. The moment of inertia of the student-stool system is 4

.5 kg⋅m2 . A second student tosses a 2.0 kg mass with a speed of 2.5 m/s to the student on the stool, who catches it at a distance of 0.35 m from the axis of rotation. What is the resulting angular speed of the student and the stool?

Here We can use principle of angular momentum conservation

Here as we know boy + projected mass system has no external torque

Since there is no torque so we can say the angular momentum is conserved

mvL = (I + mL^2)\omega

now we know that

m = 2 kg

v = 2.5 m/s

L = 0.35 m

I = 4.5 kg-m^2

now plug in all values in above equation

2\times 2.5 \times 0.35 = (4.5 + (2\times 0.35^2))\omega

1.75 = [4.5 + 0.245]\omega

1.75 = 4.745\omega

\omega = 0.37 rad/s

so the final angular speed will be 0.37 rad/s

Compare two processes we use to measure the age of Earth and its parts.
yan [13]

Answer:

Generally speaking, scientists have developed four different methods of determining the age of the earth. By using these methods, or a combination of them, the age of geological formations created by past events and even the fossilized bones of prehistoric animals can be determined.

Based on the research done by scientists, the Geologic Column, a graph that illustrates earth age, was developed. The Column, with its names for the epochs and eras of time, illustrates what scientists think was taking place in earth history. A small version of the Geologic Column is pictured at the right.

Explanation:

I hope this helps :)

What is the unique geological feature found on Mercury surface?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The surface of Mercury has landforms that indicate its crust may have contracted. They are long, sinuous cliffs called lobate scarps. These scarps appear to be the surface expression of thrust faults, where the crust is broken along an inclined plane and pushed upward.

Explanation:

I hope this helps a little bit.

Acceleration is generally defined as the time rate of change of velocity. When can it be defined as the time rate of change of s
Lena [83]

Answer:

When the velocity doesn't change its direction

Explanation:

Since velocity vector has 2 components: direction and magnitude, and speed is the velocity's magnitude. So if the velocity doesn't change its direction, we essentially use its magnitude, aka speed, to calculate the rate of change for acceleration.

Is it illegal to attempt gerrymandering​
IRINA_888 [86]

Explanation:

The US Supreme Court has affirmed in Miller v. Johnson (1995) that racial gerrymandering is a violation of constitutional rights and upheld decisions against redistricting that is purposely devised based on race. However, the Supreme Court has struggled as to when partisan gerrymandering occurs (Vieth v.
