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.

How would you describe brass since it ia used in weapons, pipes, intruments and ect? A compound, Alloy, Element l, Or molecule?
Alik [6]
<span>Brass is an <u>alloy</u>. An alloy is a mixture of elements to form a unique material. Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc and the percentage of each element depends on the desired material. It has a higher malleability than bronze or zinc. Meaning that it can be bend easily into it desired form.</span>

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

fo = 378.52Hz

Explanation:

Using Doppler effect formula:

f'=\frac{C-Vb}{C-Va}*fo

where

f' = 392 Hz

C = 340m/s

Vb = 20m/s

Va = 31m/s

Replacing these values and solving for fo:

fo = 378.52Hz
