Answer: 2.4705\ kg.m^2

Explanation:

Given

length of the rod is L=0.9 m

Mass of the rod m=3.8 kg

Point masses has mass of m=2.3 kg

Moment of Inertia of the rod about the center is

\Rightarrow I_o=\dfrac{1}{12}ML^2

Moment of inertia of combined system is the sum of rod and two point masses.

\Rightarrow I=I_o+2mr^2

\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1}{12}3.8\times 0.9^2+2\times 2.3\times \left(\dfrac{0.9}{2}\right)^2\\\\\Rightarrow I=1.539+0.9315\\\Rightarrow I=2.4705\ kg-m^2

4. The Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are now out beyond the orbit of Pluto. They have run out of fuel long ago but are still moving
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, which states that a body will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force to change its state of rest or uniform motion. So, the Voyagers spacecraft will continue to move in the same way at the constant speed of 50,000 mph unless acted upon by a force.

Suppose an object’s initial velocity is 10 m/s and its final velocity is 4 m/s. Mass is constant.
Ostrovityanka [42]

The correct answer is:

Work is negative, the environment did work on the object, and the energy of the system decreases.

In fact, the work-energy theorem states that the work done by the system is equal to its variation of kinetic energy:

W=\Delta K=K_f -K_i

In this problem, the variation of kinetic energy \Delta K is negative (because the final velocity is less than the initial velocity), so the work is negative, and this means that the environment did work on the object, and its energy decreased.

A nurse pushes a cart by exerting a force on the handle at a downward angle of 36 degrees below the horizontal. the loaded cart
Troyanec [42]

Since it was stated that it must move at constant velocity, so the only force it must overpower is the frictional force.

So the equation is:

F cos θ = Ff

F cos 36 = 65 N

F = 80.34 N

 

<span>So the nurse must exert 80.34 N of force</span>
