1) [25 pts] A 90-kg merry-go-round of radius 2.0 m is spinning at a constant speed of 20 revolutions per minute. A kid standing

on the ground decides to bring the merry-go-round to rest and applies a force of 10.0 N tangentially to the merry-go-round. If the merry-go-round is modelled as a solid cylinder, (A) calculate its moment of inertia. (B) What is the angular acceleration of the merry-go-round? (C) How many revolutions will the merry-go-round complete until it finally stops?

Answer:

(A) 180 kg·m²

(B) 0.111 rad/s²

(C) The number of revolutions the merry-go-round will complete until it finally stops is 3.142 or π rev

Explanation:

The equation of the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder is presented as follows;

I = \frac{1}{2}MR^2

Where:

I = Moment of inertia of the merry-go-round

M = Mass of the merry-go-round

R = Radius of the merry-go-round

Therefore, I = 1/2×90×2² = 180 kg·m²

(B) For the angular acceleration we have;

Therefore, since the force × radius = The torque, we have, angular acceleration is found as follows

F × R = τ

10.0 × 2.0 = 20 = I×α = 180×α

α = 20/180 = 0.111 rad/s².

angular acceleration = 0.111 rad/s².

(C) Here we have ω₀ = 20 rev/ min = 20×2×π rad/min = π·40/60 rad/s

2/3·π rad/s

ω = ω₀ - α×t

∴ t = ω₀/α = (2/3·π rad/s)/(0.111 rad/s²) = 18.85 s

Hence we have

θ = ω₀·t + 1/2·α·t², plugging in the values, we have;

θ = 2/3·π×18.85 - 1/2·0.111·18.85²

θ = 19.74 rad

Therefore, since 2·π radian = 1 revolution

The number of revolutions the merry-go-round will complete until it stops is 19.74/(2·π) = 3.142 or π revolutions.

How can you prove that air contains carbon dioxide?​
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Limewater can be used to detect carbon dioxide. If carbon dioxide is bubbled through limewater then it turns from clear to cloudy/milky in colour. This is why limewater used in a simple respirometer can show that more carbon dioxide is present in exhaled air compared to inhaled air.

a train car of mass 444 kg moving at 5 m/s bounces into another car on the same tracks of mass 344 king. of the second car was m
Kamila [148]

Answer:

3.7 m/s

Explanation:

M = 444 kg

U = 5 m/s

m = 344 kg

u = - 5 m/s

Let the velocity of train is V and the car s v after the collision.

As the collision is elastic

By use of conservation of momentum

MU + mu = MV + mv

444 x 5 - 344 x 5 = 444 V + 344 v

500 = 444 V + 344 v

125 = 111 V + 86 v .... (1)

By using the formula of coefficient of restitution ( e = 1 for elastic collision)

e = \frac{V-v}{u-U}

-5 - 5 = V - v

V - v = - 10

v = V + 10

Substitute the value of v in equation (1)

125 = 111 V + 86 (V + 10)

125 = 197 V + 860

197 V = - 735

V = - 3.7 m/s

Thus, the speed of first car after collision is 3.7 m/s. negative sign shows that the direction is reverse as before the collision.

A 20 μF capacitor initially charged to 30 μC is discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor. Part A How long does it take to reduce the
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC

Explanation:

Qi= C×V

then:

Vi = Q/C = 30μ/20μ = 1.5 volts

and:

Vf = Q/C = 10μ/20μ = 0.5 volts

then:

v = v₀e^(–t/τ)  

v₀ is the initial voltage on the cap  

v is the voltage after time t  

R is resistance in ohms,  

C is capacitance in farads  

t is time in seconds  

RC = τ = time constant  

τ = 20µ x 1.5k = 30 ms  

v = v₀e^(t/τ)  

0.5 = 1.5e^(t/30ms)  

e^(t/30ms) = 10/3  

t/30ms = 1.20397

t = (30ms)(1.20397) = 36.12 ms

Therefore, it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC.

A positively charged wire with uniform charge density +λ lies along the x-axis and a negatively charged wire with uniform charge
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0}[\frac{1}{y}(\^y) - \frac{1}{x}(\^x)]

Explanation:

The electric field created by an infinitely long wire can be found by Gauss' Law.

\int \vec{E}d\vec{a} = \frac{Q_{enc}}{\epsilon_0}\\E2\pi r h = \frac{\lambda h}{\epsilon_0}\\\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 r} \^r

For the electric field at point (x,y), the superposition of electric fields created by both lines should be calculated. The distance 'r' for the first wire is equal to 'y', and equal to 'x' for the second wire.

\vec{E} = \vec{E}_1 + \vec{E}_2 = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 y}(\^y) + \frac{-\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 x}(\^x)\\\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 y}(\^y) - \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0 x}(\^x)\\\vec{E} = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_0}[\frac{1}{y}(\^y) - \frac{1}{x}(\^x)]
