Answer:

The angular speed of the system increases.

The moment of inertia of the system decreases.

Explanation:

As we know that the girl is going towards the center of the circle so here the moment of inertia of the girl is given as

I = mr^2

here we know that

r = position of the girl from the center of the disc

now we know that the girl is moving towards the center so its distance will continuously decreasing

So the moment of inertia of the girl will decrease

Now we know that that with respect to the center of the disc there is no torque on the disc + girl system

So here we can use angular momentum conservation

So we have

I\omega = constant

since moment of inertia is decreasing for the system

so angular speed will increase

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.316 m

Explanation:

The sound level is expressed in decibels, therefore let's find the intensity for the new location

            β = 10 log \frac{I}{I_o}

let's write this expression for our case

           β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_1}{I_o}

           β₂ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_o}

           

          β₂ -β₁ = 10 ( log \frac{I_2}{I_o} - log \frac{I_1}{I_o})

          β₂ - β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_1}

          log \frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{60 - 20}{10} = 3

           \frac{I_2}{I_1} = 10³

           I₂ = 10³ I₁

having the relationship between the intensities, we can use the definition of intensity which is the power per unit area

           I = P / A

           P = I A

the area is of a sphere

          A = 4π r²

           

the power of the sound does not change, so we can write it for the two points

          P =  I₁ A₁ =  I₂ A₂

          I₁ r₁² = I₂ r₂²

we substitute the ratio of intensities

          I₁ r₁² = (10³ I₁ ) r₂²

         r₁² = 10³ r₂²

         

         r₂ = r₁ / √10³

         

we calculate

          r₂ = \frac{10.0}{\sqrt{10^3} }

          r₂ = 0.316 m

Why do you lurch forward in a bus that suddenly slows? why do you lurch backward when it picks up speed? what law applies here?
AveGali [126]
The law applied here is Newton's first law, also known as, law of inertia.
This law states that: A body will retain its state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an external force.

If you are moving and the bus suddenly stops, your body will lurch forward trying to retain its state of motion until it comes to rest and changes its state by the external force acted on it.

If you are at rest and the bus suddenly moves, your body will lurch backwards trying to retain its state of rest and opposing the force of motion until it is forced to change its state by this force.

A golf ball is rolling in the grass. What must happen to stop the ball from continuing to roll?
slamgirl [31]
The net force must be zero

This is in accordance to Newton's first law, which states that any object in motion will remain in motion and any object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. An unbalanced force is one where the net force is not zero. If no unbalanced force is applied to a moving object, it will keep moving forever. The reason that we do not observe this in our daily lives is due to friction acting as the unbalanced force.

How can you tell if an igneous rock has an intrusive or extrusive origin?
wariber [46]

Intrusive igneous rocks cool down from magma slowly because they form underneath the surface, that will make them have large crystals.

Extrusive igneous rocks cool down from lava rapidly because they form at the surface, so that will make them have small crystals.
