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.

Answer:

Curves around objects

Explanation:

Diffraction is a property of light described by bending of light around an object. This ability of light to bend around edges has facilitated optical effects of light where there is interference of light waves. Other properties of light are: reflection, refraction, polarization, scattering of light, and interference of light.
