Two uniform solid cylinders, each rotating about its central (longitudinal) axis, have the same mass of 2.88 kg and rotate with

Tanya [424]

Answer:

(a) $K_{small}=4839.3J$

(b) $K_{larger}=17406.4J$

Explanation:

Given data

The angular velocity of two cylinders ω=257 rad/s

The mass of the two cylinders m=2.88 kg

The radius of small cylinder r₁=0.319 m

The radius of larger cylinder r₂=0.605 m

For Part (a)

The rotational kinetic energy of the cylinder is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}Iw^2$

Where I is rotational of inertia of solid cylinder about its central axis.

$K=\frac{1}{2}Iw^2\\ K=\frac{1}{2}(1/2mr^2)w^2$

Substitute the given values

$K_{small}=\frac{1}{4}(2.88kg)(0.319)^2(257rad/s)^2 \\K_{small}=4839.3J$

For Part (b)

$K=\frac{1}{2}Iw^2\\ K=\frac{1}{2}(1/2mr_{2}^2)w^2$

Substitute the given values

$K_{larger}=\frac{1}{4}mr_{2}^2w^2\\ K_{larger}=\frac{1}{4}(2.88kg)(0.605m)^2(257rad/s)^2\\ K_{larger}=17406.4J$

A hydraulic machine can be used to lift extremely heavy objects. Why is the fluid in the hydraulic machine a liquid rather than

Sauron [17]

Hi,

The force that acts on hydraulic machine is heavy therefore the content must be something that cannot be compressed by that kind of force, the gas can easily be compressed while a liquid is nearly impossible to.

A sailor strikes the side of his ship just below the waterline. He hears the echo of the sound reflected from the ocean floor di

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2625 m deep

Explanation:

Let the sound speed in sea water be 1500 m/s. If he hears the echo 3.5s after the strike, then the sound would have traveled a distance of 1500 * 3.5 = 5250 m to the bottom and back. This would mean the ocean is 5250 / 2 = 2625 m deep.
