Answer:

The turntable's angular speed after the event is 28.687 revolutions per minute.

Explanation:

The system formed by the turntable and the two block are not under the effect of any external force, so we can apply the Principle of Conservation of Angular Momentum, which states that:

I_{T}\cdot \omega_{o} = (2\cdot r^{2}\cdot m +I_{T})\cdot \omega_{f} (1)

Where:

I_{T} - Moment of inertia of the turntable, in kilogram-square meters.

r - Distance of the block regarding the center of the turntable, in meters.

m - Mass of the object, in kilograms.

\omega_{o} - Initial angular speed of the turntable, in radians per second.

\omega_{f} - Final angular speed of the turntable-objects system, in radians per second.

In addition, the momentum of inertia of the turntable is determined by following formula:

I_{T} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M\cdot r^{2} (2)

Where M is the mass of the turntable, in kilograms.

If we know that \omega_{o} \approx 7.330\,\frac{rad}{s}, M = 1.5\,kg, m = 0.54\,kg and r = 0.1\,m, then the angular speed of the turntable after the event is:

I_{T} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M\cdot r^{2}

I_{T} = 7.5\times 10^{-3}\,kg\cdot m^{2}

I_{T}\cdot \omega_{o} = (2\cdot r^{2}\cdot m +I_{T})\cdot \omega_{f}

\omega_{f} = \frac{I_{T}\cdot \omega_{o}}{2\cdot r^{2}\cdot m +I_{T}}

\omega_{T} = 3.004\,\frac{rad}{s} (28.687\,\frac{rev}{min})

The turntable's angular speed after the event is 28.687 revolutions per minute.

A bobsled team accelerates the sled to go to 150 m/s in 3 seconds from rest.(a)What is the
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the equation of Newton's laws of motion

v = u + at where v is final velocity , u is initial velocity and t is time.

150 = 0 + a x 3

a = 50 m / s ²

s = ut + 1/2 at²  ; s is distance travelled

s = 50 x 3 + .5 x 50 x 3²

= 150 + 225

= 375 m .

(b) If TH = 500°C, TC = 20°C, and Wcycle = 200 kJ, what are QH and QC, each in kJ?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

QC = 122 KJ

QH = 2.64 x 122 = 322 KJ

Explanation:

TH = 500 Degree C = 500 + 273 = 773 K

TC = 20 degree C = 20 + 273 = 293 K

W cycle = 200 KJ

Use the formula for the work done in a cycle

Wcycle = QH - QC

200 = QH - QC    ..... (1)

Usse

TH / TC = QH / QC

773 / 293 = QH / QC

QH / QC = 2.64

QH = 2.64 QC     Put it in equation (1)

200 = 2.64 QC - QC

QC = 122 KJ

So, QH = 2.64 x 122 = 322 KJ

Two steel guitar strings have the same length. String A has a diameter of 0.513 mm and is under 403 N of tension. String B has a
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}} = 1.785

Explanation:

T_{A} = Tension force in string A = 403 N

T_{B} = Tension force in string B = 800 N

d_{A} = diameter of string A = 0.513 mm

d_{B} = diameter of string B = 1.29 mm

v_{A} = wave speed of string A

v_{B} = wave speed of string B

Ratio of the wave speeds is given as

\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}} = \sqrt{\frac{T_{A}}{T_{B}}} \left ( \frac{d_{B}}{d_{A}} \right )

\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}} = \sqrt{\frac{403}{800}} \left ( \frac{1.29}{0.513} \right )

\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}} = 1.785
