Answer:

$I=3.348Kgm^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass $m=14.8kg$

Radius $r=0.752m$

Generally the equation for inertia is mathematically given by

$I=\frac{2}{5}mR^2$

$I=\frac{2}{5}14.8*(0.752)^2$

$I=3.348Kgm^2$

Margaret [11]

Let us consider two bodies having masses m and m' respectively.

Let they are separated by a distance of r from each other.

As per the Newtons law of gravitation ,the gravitational force between two bodies is given as - $F = G\frac{mm'}{r^{2} }$ where G is the gravitational force constant.

From the above we see that F ∝ mm' and $F\alpha \frac{1}{r^{2} }$

Let the orbital radius of planet A is $r_{1}$ = r and mass of planet is $m_{1}$ .

Let the mass of central star is m .

Hence the gravitational force for planet A is $f_{1} =G \frac{m_{1}*m }{r^{2} }$

For planet B the orbital radius $r_{2} =2r_{1}$ and mass $m_{2} = 3 m_{1}$

Hence the gravitational force $f_{2} =G\frac{m m_{2} }{r^{2} }$

$f_{2} =G\frac{m*3m_{1} }{[2r_{1}] ^{2} }$

$= \frac{3}{4} G\frac{mm_{1} }{r_{1} ^{2} }$

Hence the ratio is $\frac{f_{2} }{f_{1} } = \frac{\frac{3}{4}G mm_{1/r_{1} ^2} }{Gmm_{1}/r_{1} ^2 }$

$=\frac{3}{4}$ [ ans]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic equations of angular motion, starting from the definition of angular velocity in terms of frequency, to verify the angular displacement and its respective derivative, let's start:
