Answer:

The moment of inertia of this system is 68 kilogram-square meters.

Explanation:

We have two particles rotating about the z-axis, which is orthogonal to xy plane, the moment of inertia of the system (I_{z}), measured in kilogram-square meters, is determined by the following formula:

I_{z} = \Sigma \limits_{i=1}^{2}m_{i}\cdot r_{i} (1)

Where:

m_{i} - Mass of the i-th particle, measured in kilograms.

r_{i} - Distance of the i-th particle from axis of rotation, measured in meters.

By Pythagorean Theorem we calculate each distance:

(x_{1}, y_{1}, z_{1}) = (4\,m, 0\,m,0\,m)

r_{1}=\sqrt{(4\,m-0\,m)^{2}+(0\,m-0\,m)^{2}+(0\,m-0\,m)^{2}}

r_{1} = 4\,m

(x_{2},y_{2}, z_{2}) = (0\,m, 3\,m, 0\,m)

r_{2} = \sqrt{(0\,m-0\,m)^{2}+(3\,m-0\,m)^{2}+(0\,m-0\,m)^{2}}

r_{2} = 3\,m

If we know that m_{1} = 2\,kg, r_{1} = 4\,m, m_{2} = 4\,kg and r_{2} = 3\,m, then the moment of inertia of the system is:

I_{z} = m_{1}\cdot r_{1}^{2}+m_{2}\cdot r_{2}^{2} (1b)

I_{z} = (2\,kg)\cdot (4\,m)^{2}+(4\,kg)\cdot (3\,m)^{2}

I_{z} = 68\,kg\cdot m^{2}

The moment of inertia of this system is 68 kilogram-square meters.

Two identical loudspeakers 2.30 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standi
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Abby is standing (4.5^2 + 2.3^2)^1/2   from the far speaker

D2 = 5.05 m from the far speaker

The difference in distances from the speakers is

5.05 - 4.5 = .55 m     (Let y be wavelength, lambda)

n y = 4.5

(n + 1) y = 5.05 for the speakers to be in phase at smallest wavelength

y = .55 m          subtracting equations

f = v / y = 340 / .55 = 618 / sec     should be the smallest frequency

vlada-n [284]
Given:
1st run: 20 meters North
2nd run: 15 meters East
time: 15 seconds

Average speed = total distance covered / total time taken
Ave. Speed = (20m + 15m) / 15s
Ave. Speed = 35m / 15s
Ave. Speed = 2 1/3  meters per second

10 points!! If you help!!!

For Mass

K.E = (1/2*mv^2)

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.
