Answer:

1470kgm²

Explanation:

The formula for expressing the moment of inertial is expressed as;

I = 1/3mr²

m is the mass of the body

r is the radius

Since there are three rotor blades, the moment of inertia will be;

I = 3(1/3mr²)

I = mr²

Given

m = 120kg

r = 3.50m

Required

Moment of inertia

Substitute the given values and get I

I = 120(3.50)²

I = 120(12.25)

I = 1470kgm²

Hence the moment of inertial of the three rotor blades about the axis of rotation is 1470kgm²

A spaceship travels 360km in one hour. Express its speed in m/s
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Spaceship speed is 36000 km/h

So, in 1 hour spaceship travel 36000 km

Or we can say that in 60×60 second spaceship travel 36000 km

Therefore in 1 sec spaceship travel

=

= 10 km/s

Work-Energy Theorem: A 4.0 kg object is moving with speed 2.0 m/s. A 1.0 kg object is moving with speed 4.0 m/s. Both objects en
allsm [11]

The same braking force does work on these objects to slow them down. The work done is equal to their change in kinetic energy:

FΔx = 0.5mv²

F = force, Δx = distance traveled, m = mass, v = speed

Isolate Δx:

Δx = 0.5mv²/F

Calculate Δx for each object.

Object 1: m = 4.0kg, v = 2.0m/s

Δx = 0.5(4.0)(2.0)²/F = 8/F

Object 2: m = 1.0kg, v = 4.0m/s

Δx = 0.5(1.0)(4.0)²/F = 8/F

The two objects travel the same distance before stopping.

A car travels 15 kilometers west in 10 minutes. After reaching the destination, the car travels back to the starting point, agai
jeka94

Speed = (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).
 
Strange as it may seem, 'velocity' is completely different. 

Velocity doesn't involve the total distance traveled at all. 
Instead, 'velocity' is based on 'displacement' ... the distance
between the start-point and end-point, regardless of the route
taken to get there.  So the displacement in driving once around
any closed path is zero, because you end up where you started. 

Velocity =

           (displacement during some time)
divided by
            (time for the displacement)

AND the direction from the start-point to the end-point.


For the guy who drove 15 km to his destination in 10 min, and then
back to his starting point in 5 min, (assuming he returned by way of
the same 15-km route):

         Speed = (15km + 15km) / (10min + 5min)  =  (30/15) (km/min)

                                                                                 =  2 km/min.

        Velocity = (end location - start position) / (15 min)  =  Zero .

The friction that prevents an object from moving when a force is applied is ________ friction.
uranmaximum [27]
Static friction is what you are looking for.
Kinetic friction is the force exerted on an already moving object, slowing it down.
