A student sits on a rotating stool holding two 3.09-kg masses. When his arms are extended horizontally, the masses are 1.08 m fr

om the axis of rotation, and he rotates with an angular speed of 0.770 rad/s. The moment of inertia of the student plus stool is 3.25 kg⋅m2 and is assumed to be constant. (Note that this moment of inertia does not include the two 3.09-kg masses.) The student then pulls the masses horizontally to 0.34 m from the rotation axis. (a) Find the new angular speed of the student. Find the kinetic energy of the rotating system (student, stool, and masses) (b) before and (c) after the masses are pulled in. Caution: There are two weights.

Answer:

a

The New angular speed is  w_f = 2.034 rad/s

b

The Kinetic energy before the masses are pulled in is  KE_i = 3.101 \ J

c

The Kinetic energy after the masses are pulled in is   KE_f = 8.192 \ J

Explanation:

From the we are told that masses are 1.08 m from the axis of rotation, this means that

             The radius r =1.08m

              The  mass is m = 3.09\  kg

              The  angular speed w = 0.770 \ rad/sec

  The moment of inertia of the system excluding the two mass I = 3.25 \ kg \cdot m^2

           New radius  r_{new} = 0.34m

             

Generally the conservation of angular momentum can be mathematical represented as

                         w_f = [\frac{I_i}{I_f} ]w_i .....(1)

Where w_f is the final angular speed

           w_i is the initial  angular speed

          I_i is the initial moment of inertia

           I_f is the final moment of inertia

Moment of inertia is mathematically represented as

                       I = m r^2

Where I is the moment of inertia

          m is the mass

           r is the radius

So the Initial moment of inertia is given as  

     I_i = moment \ of \  inertia \ of\  the  \ two \  mass \ + 3.25 \ kg \cdot m^2

     I_i = 2m r^2 + 3.25

The multiplication by is because we are considering two masses

    I_i = 2 [(3.09)(1.08)^2] +3.25 = 10.46 kg \cdot m^2

So the final  moment of inertia is given as  

     I_f = 2[(3.09)(0.34)^2] +3.25 = 3.96 \ kg \cdot m^2      

Substituting these values into equation 1

         w_f = [\frac{10.46}{3.96} ] * 0.77 = 2.034 \ rad/sec                                                          

Generally Kinetic energy is mathematically represented in term of moment of inertia as

                       KE = \frac{1}{2} * I * w^2

Now considering the kinetic energy before the masses are pulled in,

                     KE_i = \frac{1}{2} * I_i * w^2_i

The Moment of inertia would be  I_i = 10.46 \ Kg \cdot m^2

  The Angular speed would be  w_i = 0.77 \ rad/s

Now substituting these value into the equation above

              KE_i = \frac{1}{2} * (10.46) * (0.770)^2 = 3.101 J

Now considering the kinetic energy after the masses are pulled in,                      

               KE_f = \frac{1}{2} * I_f * w^2_f

The Moment of inertia would be  I_f = 3.96 \ Kg \cdot m^2

The Angular speed would be  w_f = 2.034 \ rad/s

Now substituting these value into the equation above

                        KE_f= \frac{1}{2} *(3.96)(2.034)^2  

                        = 8.192J

Ty has two pet mice. One mouse has the gene for black fur color and the other mouse has the gene for white fur color. The female
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Ty has two pet mice. One mouse has the gene for black fur color and the other mouse has the gene for white fur color. The female mouse is pregnant now, and Ty wonders what color or colors the baby mice will be. Read each offspring description phrase below and select the correct pattern of dominance for each.

___ all white fur offspring, white fur in this case is dominant

___ all gray fur offspring, this is incomplete dominant.

___ all black fur offspring, this is black fur dominantice

___ all black and white offspring, this is codominance .

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance: Incomplete dominance is when a dominant allele, or form of a gene, does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele, and the organism's resulting physical appearance shows a blending of both alleles. It is also called semi-dominance or partial dominance.

Codominance: Codominance is a relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. If the alleles are different, the dominant allele usually will be expressed, while the effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked.

A jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds. The jogger starts at the origin and runs in the positive direction
Elis [28]

Answer:

(a) 25 m

(b) 75 m

Explanation:

Given that the jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds.

So, the speed of the jogger,

v=\frac{10}{2}=5m/s\;\cdots(i)

Let d be the distance covered by him in time, t s.

As distance=(speed) x (time)

So, d=vt

From equation (i)

\Rightarrow d=5t\;\cdots(ii)

As the jogger starts from origin, so, the distance, d, also represents the position of the jogger at the time t s.

The position-time graph has been shown.

(a) From equation (ii), for t=5.0 s

d=5\times 5=25 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 25 m from the origin.

(b) Similarly, for t=15.0 s

d=5\times 15=75 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 75 m from the origin.
