A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provid

e a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 445-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 4.66 x 109 J of energy. How fast would a 19.7-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.351 m have to rotate to store this much energy

Answer:

8.37*10^5 rpm

Explanation:

Given that rotational kinetic energy = 4.66*10^9J

Mass of the fly wheel (m) = 19.7 kg

Radius of the fly wheel (r) = 0.351 m

Moment of inertia (I) = \frac{1}{2} mr ^2

Rotational K.E is illustrated as (K.E)_{rt} = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(K.E)_{rt}}{I} }

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(KE)_{rt}}{1/2 mr^2} }

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{4(K.E)_{rt}}{mr^2} }

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{4*4.66*10^9J}{19.7kg*(0.351)^2} }

\omega = 87636.04

\omega = 8.76*10^4 rad/s

Since 1 rpm = \frac{2 \pi}{60}  rad/s

\omega = 8.76*10^4(\frac{60}{2 \pi})

\omega = 836518.38

\omega = 8.37 *10^5 rpm

Tanzania [10]
The answer is D. 32 m.

The simple equation that connects speed (v), time (t), and distance (d) can be expressed as:
v= \frac{d}{t}         ⇒ d=v*t

It is given:
v =  \frac{1.6m}{0.5s} = \frac{1.6m*2}{0.5s*2}= \frac{3.2m}{1s}  = 3.2 m/s
t = 10 s
d = ?

So:
d= v*t=3.2m/s*10s = 32m

A constant force is exerted on a cart that is initially at rest on a frictionless air track. The force acts for a short time int
Inessa05 [86]

Let <em>F</em> be the magnitude of the force applied to the cart, <em>m</em> the mass of the cart, and <em>a</em> the acceleration it undergoes. After time <em>t</em>, the cart accelerates from rest <em>v</em>₀ = 0 to a final velocity <em>v</em>. By Newton's second law, the first push applies an acceleration of

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>   →   <em>a</em> = <em>F </em>/ <em>m</em>

so that the cart's final speed is

<em>v</em> = <em>v</em>₀ + <em>a</em> <em>t</em>

<em>v</em> = (<em>F</em> / <em>m</em>) <em>t</em>

<em />

If we force is halved, so is the accleration:

<em>a</em> = <em>F</em> / <em>m</em>   →   <em>a</em>/2 = <em>F</em> / (2<em>m</em>)

So, in order to get the cart up to the same speed <em>v</em> as before, you need to double the time interval <em>t</em> to 2<em>t</em>, since that would give

(<em>F</em> / (2<em>m</em>)) (2<em>t</em>) = (<em>F</em> / <em>m</em>) <em>t</em> = <em>v</em>

Niobium metal becomes a superconductor when cooled below 9 K. Its superconductivity is destroyed when the surface magnetic field
morpeh [17]

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Magnetic Field.

The magnetic field is defined as

B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

Where,

\mu_0 = Permeability constant in free space

r = Radius

I = Current

Our values are given as,

B = 0.1T

d = 4.5mm

r = 2.25mm

If the maximum current that the wire can carry is I, then

B = \frac{\mu_0 2I}{4\pi r}

I = \frac{Br}{2\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}}

I = \frac{(0.1T)(2.25*10^{-3}m)}{2(1*10^{-7}N/A^2)}}

I = 1125A

Therefore the maximum current is 1125A
