Answer:

4.535 N.m

Explanation:

To solve this question, we're going to use the formula for moment of inertia

I = mL²/12

Where

I = moment of inertia

m = mass of the ladder, 7.98 kg

L = length of the ladder, 4.15 m

On solving we have

I = 7.98 * (4.15)² / 12

I = (7.98 * 17.2225) / 12

I = 137.44 / 12

I = 11.45 kg·m²

That is the moment of inertia about the center.

Using this moment of inertia, we multiply it by the angular acceleration to get the needed torque. So that

τ = 11.453 kg·m² * 0.395 rad/s²

τ = 4.535 N·m

The movement of an object at a constant speed around a circular radius is known as
forsale [732]

Answer:

Uniform Circular Motion

Explanation:

Uniform circular motion can be described as the motion of an object in a circle at a constant speed. As an object moves in a circle, it is constantly changing its direction. At all instances, the object is moving tangent to the circle.

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 12 kg and moves with a velocity of 10 m/s
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

600 J

Explanation:

The formula to find the kinetic energy of an object is \frac{1}{2}mV^2

  • m = mass in kg
  • V = velocity in m/s
  • KE is measured in Joules just as all other forms of energy.

Now, let's plug in the variables we're given and simplify.

  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(10)^2
  • \frac{1}{2}(12)(100)
  • (6)(100)
  • (600)

Thus, the answer is 600 Joules.
