What happens to the mechanical energy of an apple as it falls from a tree?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

When the apple falls from the tree, it has some gravitational potential energy due to its height. Now, When it starts falling, the Gravitation Potential energy will starts converting into the Kinetic Energy. When the apple is about to strikes the ground, the Gravitational Potential energy have been converted into the Kinetic Energy.

Using the law of conservation of angular momentum, estimate how fast a collapsed stellar core would spin if its initial spin rat

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

$\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}$

Explanation:

The law of conservation of angular momentum states that angular momentum remains constant when there is no external moment or forces applied to the system. Let assume that star can be modelled as an sphere, then:

$\frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{o}^{2} \cdot \omega_{o} = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{f}^{2} \cdot \omega_{f}$

The final angular speed is:

$\omega_{f} = \omega_{o}\cdot (\frac{R_{o}}{R_{f}})^{2}$

$\omega_{f} = (1\,\frac{rev}{day} )\cdot (\frac{10000\,km}{10\,km} )^{2}$

$\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}$
