A disk with mass 1.64 kg and radius 0.61 meters is spinning counter-clockwise with an angular velocity of 17.6 rad/s. A rod of m

ass 1.51 kg and length 1.79 meters spinning clockwise with an angular velocity of 5.12 rad/s is dropped on the spinning disk and stuck to it (the centers of the disk and the rod coincide). The combined system continues to spin with a common final angular velocity. Calculate the magnitude of the loss in rotational kinetic energy due to the collision

Answer:

The loss in rotational kinetic energy due to the collision is 36.585 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the disk, m₁ = 1.64 kg

radius of the disk, r = 0. 61 m

angular velocity of the disk, ω₁ = 17.6 rad/s

mass of the rod, m₂ = 1.51 kg

length of the rod, L = 1.79 m

angular velocity of the rod, ω₂ =  5.12 rad/s (clock-wise)

let the counter-clockwise be the positive direction

let the clock-wise be the negative direction

The common final velocity of the two systems after the collision is calculated by applying principle of conservation of angular momentum ;

m₁ω₁  + m₂ω₂ = ωf(m₁ + m₂)

where;

ωf is the common final angular velocity

1.64 x 17.6    + 1.51(-5.12) = ωf(1.64 + 1.51)

21.1328 = ωf(3.15)

ωf = 21.1328 / 3.15

ωf = 6.709 rad/s

The moment of inertia of the disk is calculated as follows;

I_{disk} = \frac{1}{2} mr^2\\\\I_{disk}  = \frac{1}{2} (1.64)(0.61)^2\\\\I_{disk}  = 0.305 \ kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the rod about its center is calculated as follows;

I_{rod} = \frac{1}{12} mL^2\\\\I_{rod} = \frac{1}{12} \times 1.51 \times 1.79^2\\\\I _{rod }= 0.4032\ kgm^2

The initial rotational kinetic energy of the disk and rod;

K.E_i = \frac{1}{2} I_{disk}\omega _1 ^2 \ \ + \ \  \frac{1}{2} I_{rod}\omega _2 ^2 \\\\K.E_i=  \frac{1}{2} (0.305)(17.6) ^2 \ \ + \ \  \frac{1}{2} (0.4032)(-5.12) ^2\\\\K.E_i = 52.523 \ J

The final rotational kinetic energy of the disk-rod system is calculated as follows;

K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} I_{disk}\omega _f ^2 \ \ + \ \  \frac{1}{2} I_{rod}\omega _f ^2\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} \omega _f ^2(I_{disk} + I_{rod})\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} (6.709) ^2(0.305+ 0.4032)\\\\K.E_f = 15.938 \ J

The loss in rotational kinetic energy due to the collision is calculated as follows;

\Delta K.E = K.E_f \ - \ K.E_i\\\\\Delta K.E = 15.938 J  \ - \ 52.523 J\\\\\Delta K.E = - 36.585 \ J

Therefore, the loss in rotational kinetic energy due to the collision is 36.585 J.

Damm [24]

Answer

given,                                                

Tension of string is F                                                  

velocity is increased and the radius is not changed.      

the string makes two complete revolutions every second

consider the centrifugal force acting on the stone          

  = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}                          

now centrifugal force is balanced by tension

T =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}                                

From the above expression we can clearly see that tension is directly proportional to velocity and inversely proportional to radius.

When radius is not changing velocity is increasing means tension will also increase in the string.

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.4 m and at height 1.5 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s
balandron [24]

Answer:233.23 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

radius of circle=1.4 m

Height of stone above ground=1.5 m

Horizontal distance(R)=10 m

It is given at the time of break stone flies horizontally thus stone to cover a height of 1.5 m in time t before reaching ground

1.5=0+\frac{gt^2}{2}

t=0.55 s

Initial horizontal velocity at the time of break is given by u

R=u\times t

10=u\times 0.55

u=18.07 m/s

Therefore magnitude of centripetal acceleration is given by

a_c=\frac{u^2}{r}=\frac{18.07^2}{1.4}=233.23 m/s^2

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

the rock will continue at the same speed unless it is affected by another force such as gravity and so if you threw it it will continue to move unless affected by a force

Explanation:

this is because Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 31.0 m/s and lands 156.3 m from the base of a ramp how high is th
BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer:</u>

The height of ramp = 124.694 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Using second equation of motion,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

From the question,

u = 31 m/s; s = 156.3 m, a=0

substituting values

156.3 = 31\times t + 0

t = \frac{156.3}{31 }

= 5.042 s

Similary, for the case of landing

t = 5.042 s; initial velocity, u =0

acceleration = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting in h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times (5.042)^2

h = 124.694 m

So height of ramp = 124.694 m
