A person holds a ladder horizontally at its center. Treating the ladder as a uniform rod of length 4.15 m and mass 7.98 kg, find

the torque the person must exert on the ladder to give it an angular acceleration of 0.396 rad/s2.

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

Part 1: Use complete sentences to explain why solar winds occur. Part 2: Give two examples in which solar winds impact Earth.
Troyanec [42]

Part 1

When the solar atmosphere accumulates a lot of magnetic energy to a point that cannot accumulate more, all that magnetic energy is suddenly released, and with it, a lot of radiation. So much, that in fact it covers all of the electromagnetic spectrum; from radio waves to gamma rays. That burst of radiation is called a solar flare. In a single solar flare the amount of radiation released is millions of times greater than all the nuclear bombs in the face if the earth exploding together. Lucky for us, most of the high-energy radiation dissipates before reaching the Earth, and the radiation that do reach us, is deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field.

Part 2

1.  Not all the radiation of solar flares that reach the Earth is deflected by its magnetic field; some of them reach us and charges the upper atmosphere with ionized particles. Those particles react with the gases in the atmosphere and produce a light; that light is what we call Auroras borealis or southern nights; One the most beautiful natural spectacles in earth, who thought Auroras begin their lives as deadly solar flares.

2.  Solar flares contain a lot of high-energy radiation that is extremely dangerous for our electronic devices; when they reach the Earth, they can damage sensible electronics like satellites. A very powerful solar flare could even damage all the electronic devices on the surface of the Earth.

A racecar experiences a centripetal acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 as it travels at a constant speed of 27.0 m/s along a circular arc
alexdok [17]

Answer:

20.25 m

Explanation:

  • <u>Centripetal acceleration </u>is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path.

That is;

         <em><u>ac = v²/r</u></em>

<em>         </em><em><u> Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m</u></em>

Therefore;

r = v²/ac

  = 27²/36

  = 20.25 m

Hence the radius is 20.25 meters
