To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the moment of inertia and Torque, the latter both its translational and rotational expression.

According to the information given the moment of inertia of the body would be

$I = \frac{1}{3} mL^2$

Replacing we have

$I = \frac{1}{3} (3kg)(2m)^2$

$I = 4 kg * m^2$

Now the translational torque would be the product between the force applied (Its own Weight) and the distance (Its center of mass at the middle)

$\tau = F*r$

$\tau = mg (\frac{L}{2})$

$\tau = (3)(9.8)(\frac{2}{2})$

$\tau = 29.4N\cdot m$

Now the rotational torque is defined as the product between the moment of inertia and the angular acceleration, then,

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

Replacing,

$\alpha = \frac{29.4}{4}$

$\alpha =7.35 rad / s^2$

Therefore the angular acceleration is $7.35rad/s^2$

A substance freezes at -58c therefore substance melts at ?

Yanka [14]

The freezing point is the same as the melting point.

If it freezes at -58°C, hence the melting point is also <span>-58°C.</span>

A train leaves the station at the 0.0m marker traveling with a constant velocity of 45.0 m/s. How many

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

119.88 km/h

Explanation:

1500/45=33.3

use a m/s to km/h calculator

put in 33.3 for m/s and you will get 119.88 km/h.

119.88 km/h.
