The rotational inertia of a collapsing spinning star changes to 1/6 its initial value. What is the ratio of the new rotational k

inetic energy to the initial rotational kinetic energy
Physics

storchak [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the initial rotational inertia be I and final rotational inertia be I / 6 .

Let the initial angular velocity be ω₁ and final angular velocity be ω₂.

Applying conservation of angular momentum law

I x ω₁ = I / 6 x ω₂

6 ω₁  = ω₂

initial rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 I x ω₁ ²

Final  rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 ( I / 6 ) x ω₂ ²

Final  rotational kinetic energy / initial rotational kinetic energy

= ( 1 / 6 ) x ω₂ ² / ω₁ ²

=  ω₂ ² / 6ω₁ ²

= 36 ω₁ ² / 6ω₁ ²

= 6 .

Determine the total amount of heat, in joules, required to completely vaporize a 50.0-gram sample of h2o(?) at its boiling point
Tanzania [10]
In order to calculate the amount of energy required, we must first check the latent heat of vaporization of water from literature. The latent heat of vaporization of any substance is the amount of energy required per unit mass to convert that substance from a solid to a liquid. For water this is 2,260 J/g. We now use the formula:
Energy = mass * latent heat
Q = 50 * 2,260
Q = 113,000 J

113,000 Joules of heat energy are required.

The table below shows the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere for a period of 50 years.
yan [13]

Answer: The level of CO2 has risen.

Explanation:

From the table shown, we can see that the quantity of CO₂ in the atmosphere has steadily risen since the year 1960 going from 317 CO₂PPM in that year to 390 CO₂PPM in 2010.

This is a cause for alarm because with so much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, there will be an even greater greenhouse effect that will contribute to global warming.
