Answer:

the moment of inertia with the arms extended is Io and when the arms are lowered the moment

I₀/I > 1    ⇒   w > w₀

Explanation:

The angular momentum is conserved if the external torques in the system are zero, this is achieved because the friction with the ice is very small,

           L₀ = L_f

           I₀ w₀ = I w

          w =\frac{I_o}{I} w₀

where we see that the angular velocity changes according to the relation of the angular moments, if we approximate the body as a cylinder with two point charges, weight of the arms

          I₀ = I_cylinder + 2 m r²

where r is the distance from the center of mass of the arms to the axis of rotation, the moment of inertia of the cylinder does not change, therefore changing the distance of the arms changes the moment of inertia.

If we say that the moment of inertia with the arms extended is Io and when the arms are lowered the moment will be

        I <I₀

        I₀/I > 1    ⇒   w > w₀

therefore the angular velocity (rotations) must increase

in this way the skater can adjust his spin speed to the musician.

A golfer strikes a 0.059-kg golf ball with a force of 290 N. If the ball moves with a velocity of 69 m/s,
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

0.014s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

mass of golf ball  = 0.059kg

force applied  = 290N

velocity = 69m/s

initial velocity  = 0m/s

Unknown:

Time of contact  = ?

Solution;

We know that momentum is the quantity of motion of body possess;

  Momentum  = mass x velocity

  Momentum  = 0.059 x 69  = 4.1kgm/s

Also; impulse is the effect of the force acting on a body;

  impulse  = force x time  = momentum

  So;

            Force x time  = momentum

                  Time  = \frac{momentum}{force }    = \frac{4.1}{290}    = 0.014s

A pendulum consisting of a 0.5 kg mass tied to a 0.3 m string is set into oscillation at the same moment that a stone is dropped
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

2.72 cycles

Explanation:

First of all, let's find the time that the stone takes to reaches the ground. The stone moves by uniform accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2, and it covers a distance of S=44.1 m, so the time taken is

S=\frac{1}{2}at^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(44.1m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=3 s

The period of the pendulum instead is given by:

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.3 m}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.10 s

Therefore, the number of oscillations that the pendulum goes through before the stone hits the ground is given by the time the stone takes to hit the ground divided by the period of the pendulum:

N=\frac{t}{T}=\frac{3 s}{1.10 s}=2.72

As the time required to run up the stairs increases, the power developed by that person
weeeeeb [17]
Yes. Power will decrease.

'cause Power = Work / time
So, power is indirectly proportional to time so, when one increases other would decrease

Hope this helps!

If a projectile travels in the air for 8 seconds when does a projectile reach its highest point
emmainna [20.7K]

Given

The projectile is in air for a time of t=8 sec

To find

The time it takes to reach the highest point

Explanation

A projectile moves up to the highest point and then again moves down following a parabolic path.

So it will reach the highest point at a time half the time it requires to follow teh parabolic path.

The time taken to reach the highest point is 4 sec

Conclusion

The time taken is 4 sec.

A baseball bat hits a baseball with a force of 100 newtons. What is the force and its direction exerted by the ball on the bat?
Brut [27]

Answer:

The force exerted by the ball on the bat has a magnitude of 100 N and its direction is exactly opposite to that of the force exerted by the bat on the ball.

Explanation:

Recall that Newton's third law tells us that : "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Therefore if the bat acts on the ball with a force of 100 N, the ball acts on the bat with a similar magnitude of force (100 N) but direction opposite to the original force.
