Answer:

I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²

Explanation:

Mass of platform; m1 = 117 kg

Radius; r = 1.61 m

Moment of inertia here is;

I1 = m1•r²/2

I1 = 117 × 1.61²/2

I1 = 151.63785 kg.m²

Mass of person; m2 = 62.5 kg

Distance of person from centre; r = 1.05 m

Moment of inertia here is;

I2 = m2•r²

I2 = 62.5 × 1.05²

I2 = 68.90625 kg.m²

Mass of dog; m3 = 28.3 kg

Distance of Dog from centre; r = 1.43 m

I3 = 28.3 × 1.43²

I3 = 57.87067 kg.m²

Thus,moment of inertia of the system;

I_syst = I1 + I2 + I3

I_syst = 151.63785 + 68.90625 + 57.87067

I_syst = 278.41477 kg.m²

A man-made satellite of mass 6105 kg is in orbit around the earth, making one revolution in 430 minutes. What is the magnitude o

blondinia [14]

Answer:

A gravitational force of 6841.905 newtons is exerted on the satellite by the Earth.

Explanation:

At first we assume that Earth is represented by an uniform sphere, such that the man-made satellite rotates in a circular orbit around the planet. Hence, the following condition must be satisfied:

$\left(\frac{4\pi^{2}}{T^{2}} \right)\cdot r = \frac{G\cdot M}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$T$ - Period of rotation of the satellite, measured in seconds.

$r$ - Distance of the satellite with respect to the center of the planet, measured in meters.

$G$ - Gravitational constant, measured in newton-square meters per square kilogram.

$M$ - Mass of the Earth, measured in kilograms.

Now we clear the distance of the satellite with respect to the center of the planet:

$r^{3} = \frac{G\cdot M\cdot T^{2}}{4\pi^{2}}$

$r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{G\cdot M\cdot T^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} }$ (2)

If we know that $G = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}}$ , $M = 6.0\times 10^{24}\,kg$ and $T = 25800\,s$ , then the distance of the satellite is:

$r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}} \right)\cdot (6.0\times 10^{24}\,kg)\cdot (25800\,s)^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} }$

$r \approx 18.897\times 10^{6}\,m$

The gravitational force exerted on the satellite by the Earth is determined by the Newton's Law of Gravitation:

$F = \frac{G\cdot m\cdot M}{r^{2}}$ (3)

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the satellite, measured in kilograms.

$F$ - Force exerted on the satellite by the Earth, measured in newtons.

If we know that $G = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}}$ , $M = 6.0\times 10^{24}\,kg$ , $m = 6105\,kg$ and $r \approx 18.897\times 10^{6}\,m$ , then the gravitational force is:

$F = \frac{\left(6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{kg^{2}} \right)\cdot (6105\,kg)\cdot (6\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{(18.897\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}}$

$F = 6841.905\,N$

A gravitational force of 6841.905 newtons is exerted on the satellite by the Earth.

In a chemical reaction, molecules of hydrogen gas (H2) react with molecules of oxygen gas (O2) in a sealed reaction chamber to p

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that the molecules of hydrogen gas ( $H_2$ ) react with molecules of oxygen gas ( $O_2$ ) in a sealed reaction chamber to produce water ( $H_2O$ ).

The governing equation for the reaction is

$2H_2 +O_2 \rightarrow 2H_2O$

From the given, the only fact that can be observed that 2 moles of $H_2$ and 1 mole of $O_2$ reacts to produce 2 moles of $H_2O$ .

As the mass of 1 mole of $H_2 = 2$ grams ... (i)

The mass of 1 mole of $O_2 = 32$ grams ...(ii)

The mass of 1 mole of $H_2O = 18$ grams (iii)

Now, the mass of the reactant = Mass of 2 moles of $H_2$ + mass 1 mole of $O_2$

$= 2 \times 2 + 32$ [ using equations (i) and (ii)]

$=4+32 = 36$ grams.

Mass of the product = Mass of 2 moles of $H_2O$

$=2\times 18$ [ using equations (iii)]

=36 grams

As the mass of reactants = mass of the product.

So, mass is conserved.

Hence, option (B) is correct.

The refractive index n of transparent acrylic plastic (full name Poly(methyl methacrylate)) depends on the color (wavelength) of

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block is

$\theta _d =0.19 ^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for blue light is $n_F = 1.497$

The wavelength of the blue light is $F = 486.1 nm = 486.1 *10^{-9} \ m$

The refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for red light is $n_C = 1.488$

The wavelength of the red light is $C = 656.3 nm = 656.3 *10^{-9} \ m$

The incidence angle is $i = 45^o$

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the blue light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

$r_F = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) * n_a }{n_F} ]$

Where $n_a$ is the refractive index of air which have a value of $n_a = 1$

So

$r_F = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) * 1 }{ 1.497} ]$

$r_F = 28.18^o$

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the red light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

$r_C = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) * n_a }{n_C} ]$

Where $n_a$ is the refractive index of air which have a value of $n_a = 1$

So

$r_C = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) * 1 }{ 1.488} ]$

$r_F = 28.37^o$

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block

$\theta _d = r_C - r_F$

substituting values

$\theta _d = 28.37 - 28.18$

$\theta _d =0.19 ^o$

A scientist designs an experiment in which a light source is pointed at a substance and a light detector is placed on the opposi

Lostsunrise [7]

The answer is D. Either absorbed or reflected. The reason is because if no light is being shown on the other side, the substance is not letting any light pass through. Since we do not know anything else about the substance, we do not know which one of the two it is doing. The scientist would not see any light on the detector if 100% of the light is reflected and the same thing would happen if 100% of the light was absorbed.
