Answer:
The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of one child = 16 kg
Mass of second child = 24 kg
Suppose a playground toy has two seats, each 6.1 kg, attached to very light rods of length r = 1.5 m.
We need to calculate the moment of inertia
Using formula of moment of inertia


m = mass of seat
m₁ =mass of one child
m₂ = mass of second child
r = radius of rod
Put the value into the formula


Hence, The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²
Answer:
The correct option is;
C. 1,715 m
Explanation:
We are given the information from the group of teen at the City edge
Time of arrival of explosion sound = 5 s after sighting
Time of sighting explosion = 5 s before hearing the boom
Speed of sound in air ≈ 343 m/s
Speed of light = 299,792 km/s
Therefore, distance covered by sound in 5 seconds is given by the following equation;


Hence Distance = 343 m/s × 5 s = 1715 m
To check, we compare the time it would take for the light to cover 1715 m
That is
which is instantaneous hence the distance can be approximated by the time duration for the speed of sound.
Therefore, the distance of the students from the factory is approximately 1,715 m
Answer:
When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached free fall.
Explanation:
- When an object has only force acting on it as gravity then, it experiences free fall.
- During free fall all the forces except gravity is balanced by one another.
- In the question, object's weight is balanced by air resistance so it is in the state of free fall.
- At the null point of free fall, object experiences weightlessness i.e. it feels like object is not attracted by any force.
