While spinning down from 500 rpm to rest, a flywheel does 3.9 kj of work. this flywheel is in the shape of a solid uniform disk

of radius 1.2 m. what is the mass of this flywheel?

The answer is 4.0 kg since the flywheel comes to rest the kinetic energy of the wheel in motion is spent doing the work. Using the formula KE = (1/2) I w².

Given the following:

I =  the moment of inertia about the axis passing through the center of the wheel; w = angular velocity ; for the solid disk as I = mr² / 2 so KE = (1/4) mr²w². Now initially, the wheel is spinning at 500 rpm so w = 500 * (2*pi / 60) rad / sec = 52.36 rad / sec.

The radius = 1.2 m and KE = 3900 J

3900 J = (1/4) m (1.2)² (52.36)²

m = 3900 J / (0.25) (1.2)² (52.36)²

m = 3.95151 ≈ 4.00 kg

What potential difference is required to cause 4.00 a to flow through a resistance of 330 ω?
Alisiya [41]
We can solve the problem by using Ohm's law, which states that an Ohmic conductor the following relationship holds:
\Delta V = I R
where
\Delta V is the potential difference applied to the resistor
I is the current flowing through it
R is the resistance

In our problem, I=4.00 A and R=330 \omega, so the potential difference is
\Delta V = IR=(4.00 A)(330 \omega)=1320 V

How does an atom change if all of its electrons are removed?
Alex
<span>The atom becomes positively charged.

When you add electrons to a neutral atom, it is no longer a neutral atom, it has a negative change and is an anion. When you take away electrons from a neutral atom, it is no longer a neutral atom- it becomes a positive atom, and is a cation.</span>

An artillery shell is launched on a flat, horizontal field at an angle of α = 40.8° with respect to the horizontal and with an i
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

1317.4 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Angle=\alpha=40.8^{\circ}

Initial speed =v_0=346m/s

We have to find the horizontal distance covered  by the shell after 5.03 s.

Horizontal component of initial speed=v_{ox}=v_0cos\theta=346cos40.8=261.9m/s

Vertical component of initial speed=v_{oy}=346sin40.8=226.1m/s

Time=t=5.03 s

Horizontal distance =Horizontal\;velocity\times time

Using the  formula

Horizontal distance=261.9\times 5.03

Horizontal distance=1317.4 m

Hence, the horizontal distance covered by the shell=1317.4 m
