Answer:
A) Burning fossil fuels pollutes the environment
When you draw an illustration for this problem, you would come up with the same drawing as shown in the picture. As the hot-air balloon travels upwards, there is a slight time when the bag of sand rises up until it reaches the maximum height. Then, it goes back down to the ground. The total time would be t₁ + t₂. The solution is as follows:
H = v₀²/2g = (2.45)²/2(9.81) = 0.306 m
t₁ = H/v₀ = 0.306 m/2.45 m/s = 0.125 s
t₂ = √2(H + 98.8)/g = √2(0.306+ 98.8)/9.81
t₂ = 4.495 s
Total time = 0.125 s + 4.495 s = 4.62 seconds
Answer:
10.8 s
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 5 m/s/s
Distance travelled (s) = 291 m
Time (t) taken =?
We can calculate the time taken for the car to cover the distance as follow:
s = ut + ½at²
291 = 0 × t + ½ × 5 × t²
291 = 0 + 2.5 × t²
291 = 2.5 × t²
Divide both side by 2.5
t² = 291 / 2.5
t² = 116.4
Take the square root of both side
t = √116.4
t = 10.8 s
Thus, it will take the car 10.8 s to cover the distance.
Answer:
1) 883 kgm2
2) 532 kgm2
3) 2.99 rad/s
4) 944 J
5) 6.87 m/s2
6) 1.8 rad/s
Explanation:
1)Suppose the spinning platform disk is solid with a uniform distributed mass. Then its moments of inertia is:

If we treat the person as a point mass, then the total moment of inertia of the system about the center of the disk when the person stands on the rim of the disk:

2) Similarly, he total moment of inertia of the system about the center of the disk when the person stands at the final location 2/3 of the way toward the center of the disk (1/3 of the radius from the center):

3) Since there's no external force, we can apply the law of momentum conservation to calculate the angular velocity at R/3 from the center:



4)Kinetic energy before:

Kinetic energy after:

So the change in kinetic energy is: 2374 - 1430 = 944 J
5) 
6) If the person now walks back to the rim of the disk, then his final angular speed would be back to the original, which is 1.8 rad/s due to conservation of angular momentum.
