Answer:

a. The object with the smallest rotational inertia, the thin hoop

b. The object with the smallest rotational inertia, the thin hoop

c. The rotational speed of the sphere is 55.8 rad/s and Its translational speed is 1.67 m/s

Explanation:

a. Without doing any calculations, decide which object would be spinning the fastest when it gets to the bottom. Explain.

Since the thin has the smallest rotational inertia. This is because, since kinetic energy of a rotating object K = 1/2Iω² where I = rotational inertia and ω = angular speed.

ω = √2K/I

ω ∝ 1/√I

since their kinetic energy is the same, so, the thin hoop which has the smallest rotational inertia spins fastest at the bottom.

b. Again, without doing any calculations, decide which object would get to the bottom first.

Since the acceleration of a rolling object a = gsinФ/(1 + I/MR²), and all three objects have the same kinetic energy, the object with the smallest rotational inertia has the largest acceleration.

This is because a ∝ 1/(1 + I/MR²) and the object with the smallest rotational inertia has the smallest ratio for I/MR² and conversely small 1 + I/MR² and thus largest acceleration.

So, the object with the smallest rotational inertia gets to the bottom first.

c. Assuming all objects are rolling without slipping, have a mass of 2.00 kg and a radius of 3.00 cm, find the rotational and translational speed at the bottom of the incline of any one of these three objects.

We know the kinetic energy of a rolling object K = 1/2Iω² + 1/2mv² where I = rotational inertia and ω = angular speed, m = mass and v = velocity of center of mass = rω where r = radius of object

The kinetic energy K = potential energy lost = mgh where h = 20.0 cm = 0.20 m and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

So, mgh = 1/2Iω² + 1/2mv² = 1/2Iω² + 1/2mr²ω²

Let I = moment of inertia of sphere = 2mr²/5 where r = radius of sphere = 3.00 cm = 0.03 m and m = mass of sphere = 2.00 kg

So, mgh = 1/2Iω² + 1/2mr²ω²

mgh = 1/2(2mr²/5 )ω² + 1/2mr²ω²

mgh = mr²ω²/5 + 1/2mr²ω²

mgh = 7mr²ω²/10

gh = 7r²ω²/10

ω² = 10gh/7r²

ω = √(10gh/7) ÷ r

substituting the values of the variables, we have

ω = √(10 × 9.8 m/s² × 0.20 m/7) ÷ 0.03 m

= 1.673 m/s ÷ 0.03 m

= 55.77 rad/s

≅ 55.8 rad/s

So, its rotational speed is 55.8 rad/s

Its translational speed v = rω

= 0.03 m × 55.8 rad/s

= 1.67 m/s

So, its rotational speed is of the sphere is 55.8 rad/s and Its translational speed is 1.67 m/s

square root A 1400 kg car is coasting on a horizontal road with a speed of 18 m/s . After passing over an unpaved, sandy stretch

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The net force on the car is 2560 N.

Explanation:

According to work energy theorem, the amount of work done is equal to the change of kinetic energy by an object. If ' $W$ ' be the work done on an object to change its kinetic energy from an initial value ' $K_{i}$ ' to the final value ' $K_{f}$ ', then mathematically,

$W = K_{f} - K_{i} = \dfrac{1}{2}~m~(v_{f}^{2} - v_{i}^{2})........................................(I)$

where ' $m$ ' is the mass of the object and ' $v_{i}$ ' and ' $v_{f}$ ' be the initial and final velocity of the object respectively. If ' $F_{net}$ ' be the net force applied on the car, as per given problem, and ' $s$ ' is the displacement occurs then we can write,

$W = F_{net}~.~s.......................................................(II)$

Given, $m = 1400~Kg,~v_{i} = 18~m~s^{-1}~v_{f} = 14~m~s^{-1}~and~s = 35~m$ .

Equating equations (I) and (II),

$&& - F_{net} \times 35~m = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 1400~Kg~\times(14^{2} - 18^{2})~m^{2}~s^{-2}\\&or,& F_{net} = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2} \times 1400~Kg~\times(14^{2} - 18^{2})}{35}~N\\&or,& F_{net} = 2560~N$

When the moon slowly moves away from the earth.How is it affecting the gravitational force between the earth and the moon?

sukhopar [10]

Well, think about how the tides will be affected when the moon moves farther away. If the moon first started off very close the earth, we would have more tsunamis. (Scientists have found that the moon has possibly been closer to earth long ago.) While it moves away, soon there will no longer be many tides.

A ball bearing is projected vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 15ms. Calculate the time taken by the ball to

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

t = 3 [s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

$v_{f}=v_{o}-g*t$

where:

Vf = final velocity [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 15 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Now replacing we have:

$0 = 15 -10*t\\10*t=15\\t= 1.5[s]$

Note: In the equation above the gravity acceleration is negative, because the movement of the ball bearing is pointing againts the gravity acceleration.

The time calculated is only when the ball bearing reaches the highest elevation, and it will take the same time for descending, therefore the total time is:

t = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3 [s]
