<h2>Answer:</h2>

[D] It oxidizes.

4K + O2 → 2K2O, <u>potassium oxide</u> is produce.

We have the equation, in which when <u>potassium</u> react with <u>oxygen</u>, as a product it formed <u>Potassium oxide</u> which means <u>adding of oxygen</u> (<u>oxidation</u>).

Where must an object be placed to form an image 30.0 cm from a diverging lens with a focal length of 43.0 cm?
Schach [20]
Using lens equation;

1/o + 1/i = 1/f; where o = Object distance, i = image distance (normally negative), f = focal length (normally negative)

Substituting;

1/o + 1/-30 = 1/-43 => 1/o = -1/43 + 1/30 = 0.01 => o = 1/0.01 = 99.23 cm

Therefore, the object should be place 99.23 cm from the lens.

Consider a situation where you are playing air hockey with a friend. The table shoots small streams of air upward to keep the pu
artcher [175]

When we hit the puck from tap the puck will move forward.

This is due to the impulse provided by us at the time of hit. Due to this impulse the puck will move forward and start moving in some direction.

As soon as puck move forward the force on it is zero as the weight of the puck is counterbalanced by the air stream force and there is no other force on it so puck will continue its motion till it will hit at some other point.

So here the motion of the puck will be uniform motion till it will collide with some other points.

So here the correct option will be given as

<em>moves with a constant speed until hitting the other end.</em>

A person with mass mp = 74 kg stands on a spinning platform disk with a radius of R = 2.31 m and mass md = 183 kg. The disk is i
timurjin [86]

Answer:

1) 883 kgm2

2) 532 kgm2

3) 2.99 rad/s

4) 944 J

5) 6.87 m/s2

6) 1.8 rad/s

Explanation:

1)Suppose the spinning platform disk is solid with a uniform distributed mass. Then its moments of inertia is:

I_d = m_dR^2/2 = 183*2.31^2/2 = 488 kgm^2

If we treat the person as a point mass, then the total moment of inertia of the system about the center of the disk when the person stands on the rim of the disk:

I_{rim} = I_d + m_pR^2 = 488 + 74*2.31^2 = 883 kgm^2

2) Similarly, he total moment of inertia of the system about the center of the disk when the person stands at the final location 2/3 of the way toward the center of the disk (1/3 of the radius from the center):

I_{R/3} = I_d + m_p(R/3)^2 = 488 + 74*(2.31/3)^2 = 532 kgm^2

3) Since there's no external force, we can apply the law of momentum conservation to calculate the angular velocity at R/3 from the center:

I_{rim}\omega_{rim} = I_{R/3}\omega_{R/3}

\omega_{R/3} = \frac{I_{rim}\omega_{rim}}{I_{R/3}}

\omega_{R/3} = \frac{883*1.8}{532} = 2.99 rad/s

4)Kinetic energy before:

E_{rim} = I_{rim}\omega_{rim}^2/2 = 883*1.8^2/2 = 1430 J

Kinetic energy after:

E_{R/3} = I_{R/3}\omega_{R/3}^2/2 = 532*2.99^2/2 = 2374 J

So the change in kinetic energy is: 2374 - 1430 = 944 J

5) a_c = \omega_{R/3}^2(R/3) = 2.99^2*(2.31/3) = 6.87 m/s^2

6) If the person now walks back to the rim of the disk, then his final angular speed would be back to the original, which is 1.8 rad/s due to conservation of angular momentum.
