Consider the following four objects: a hoop, a solid sphere, a flat disk, a hollow sphere. Each of the objects has mass M and ra
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Hoop.

Explanation:

The angular acceleration performed at a given torque:

\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}

The moments of inertia of each element are described below:

Hoop

I = M\cdot R^{2}

Solid sphere

I = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}

Flat disk

I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}

Hollow sphere

I = \frac{2}{3}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}

The greater the moment of inertia, the greater the torque to obtain the same angular acceleration. Therefore, the hoop requires the largest torque to receive the same angular acceleration.

A fruit bat falls from the roof of a cave. We know that her potential energy was
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

v = 15.65 m/s

Explanation:

We use conservation of mechanical energy between initial (i) and final (f) states:

Pi + KEi = Pf + KEf

At the top of the cave at the instant the bat starts to fall, there is only potential energy since the bat's velocity is zero.

Pi = m g h = 600 J

and the KEi = 0 J (no velocity)

Knowing the height of the cave's roof (12.8 m) , we can find the mass of the bat:

m = 600 J / (g 12.5) = 4.9 kg

Using conservation of mechanical energy, the final state is:

Pf + KEf = 600 J

with Pf = 0 (just touching the ground)

KEf= 1/2  4.9 (v^2)

and we solve for the velocity:

600 J = 0 + 1/2  4.9 (v^2)

v^2 = 600 * 2 / 4.9 = 244.9

v = 15.65 m/s
