Kinetic energy = (mv^2)/2. So (.5)(10^2)/2 = 25 J

A bug of mass 2.2 g is sitting at the edge of a cd of radius 3.0 cm. if the cd is spinning at 280 rpm, what is the angular momen
m_a_m_a [10]
M = 2.2 g = 2.2 x 10⁻³ kg, the mass of the bug.
r = 3.0 cm = 0.03 m, the radial distance from the center.

The angular speed is
ω = 280 rpm
    = (280 rev/min)*(2π rad/rev)*(1/60 min/s)
    = 29.3215 rad/s

The moment of inertia of the bug is
I = mr²
  = (2.2 x 10⁻³ kg)*(0.03 m)²
  = 1.98 x 10⁻⁶ kg-m²

Calculate the angular momentum of the bug.
J = Iω
  = (1.98 x 10⁻⁶ kg-m²)*(29.3215 rad/s)
  = 5.806 x 10⁻⁵ (kg-m²)/s

Answer: 5.806 x 10⁻⁵ (kg-m²)/s

Make changes in your environment that will discourage target behavior and encourage healthier choices.
VladimirAG [237]

Answer with Explanation:

If my target behavior is "smoking" then I'd suggest to ban places which allows smoking areas. This is a very effective way in order to address the behavior. People who violates this law will also be penalized and if they continue to violate it, then they will have to be brought to court. In such way, smoker's attention will be diverted to healthier activities. Instead of smoking outside, they can go jogging in order to relieve themselves from stress. They can also spend quality time with their family.

If they practice this every day, then it will gradually become a normal part of their routine until they totally give up smoking.

You are standing on a log and a friend is trying to knock
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: catching the ball is a better choice.

Explanation:

The collision of 2 objects involves involves large impact force since the force is inversely proportional to the time in which the momentum of the object changes.

Mathematically

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

If we catch the ball we increase the time in which the momentum of the ball is decreased thus the impact force that acts on us is lower as larger time is allowed for the ball to decrease it's momentum.

If we allow the ball to hit us the momentum of the ball changes in a short period of time thus applying a large impact force on our body thus increasing the chances of toppling.
