Three children are riding on the edge of a merry-go-round that is a solid disk with a mass of 102 kg and a radius of 1.53 m. The

merry-go-round is initially spinning at 9.71 revolutions/minute. The children have masses of 31.7 kg, 29.0 kg and 31.9 kg. If the child who has a mass of 29.0 kg moves to the center of the merry-go-round, what is the new angular velocity in revolutions/minute

Three children of masses and their position on the merry go round

M1 = 22kg

M2 = 28kg

M3 = 33kg

They are all initially riding at the edge of the merry go round

Then, R1 = R2 = R3 = R = 1.7m

Mass of Merry go round is

M =105kg

Radius of Merry go round.

R = 1.7m

Angular velocity of Merry go round

ωi = 22 rpm

If M2 = 28 is moves to center of the merry go round then R2 = 0, what is the new angular velocity ωf

Using conservation of angular momentum

Initial angular momentum when all the children are at the edge of the merry go round is equal to the final angular momentum when the second child moves to the center of the merry go round  Then,

L(initial) = L(final)

Ii•ωi = If•ωf

So we need to find the initial and final moment of inertia

NOTE: merry go round is treated as a solid disk then I= ½MR²

I(initial)=½MR²+M1•R²+M2•R²+M3•R²

I(initial) = ½MR² + R²(M1 + M2 + M3)

I(initial) = ½ × 105 × 1.7² + 1.7²(22 + 28 + 33)

I(initial) = 151.725 + 1.7²(83)

I(initial) = 391.595 kgm²

Final moment of inertial when R2 =0

I(final)=½MR²+M1•R²+M2•R2²+M3•R²

Since R2 = 0

I(final) = ½MR²+ M1•R² + M3•R²

I(final) = ½MR² + (M1 + M3)• R²

I(final)=½ × 105 × 1.7² + ( 22 +33)•1.7²

I(final) = 151.725 + 158.95

I(final) = 310.675 kgm²

Now, applying the conservation of angular momentum

L(initial) = L(final)

Ii•ωi = If•ωf

391.595 × 22 = 310.675 × ωf

Then,

ωf = 391.595 × 22 / 310.675

ωf = 27.73 rpm

Answer: So, the final angular momentum is 27.73 revolution per minute

Pendulum takes 1 second to move from x to y so it's frequency equal ​
lara [203]

if it takes 1 second to move from x to y. You haven't specified if x and y are extreme point or x is extreme and y is equilibrium point

I.If both are extreme points the period is T=1*2=2s

f(frequency)=2π/T(period)

f=6.28/2=3.14Hz

II.If x is an extreme point and y is equilibrium

T=4*1=4s

f=6.28/4=1.57Hz

Two charged concentric spherical shells have radii of 11.0 cm and 14.0 cm. The charge on the inner shell is 3.50 ✕ 10−8 C and th
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field are 2.38\times10^{4}\ N/C and 1.09\times10^{4}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of inner shell = 11.0 cm

Radius of outer shell = 14.0 cm

Charge on inner shell q_{inn}=3.50\times10^{-8}\ C

Charge on outer shell q_{out}=1.60\times10^{-8}\ C

Suppose, at r = 11.5 cm and at r = 20.5 cm

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at r = 11.5 cm

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

Where, q = charge

k = constant

r = distance

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times3.50\times10^{-8}}{(11.5\times10^{-2})^2}

E=2.38\times10^{4}\ N/C

The total charge enclosed  by a radial distance 20.5 cm

The total charge is

q=q_{inn}+q_{out}

Put the value into the formula

q=3.50\times10^{-8}+1.60\times10^{-8}

q=5.1\times10^{-8}\ C

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at r = 20.5 cm

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times5.1\times10^{-8}}{(20.5\times10^{-2})^2}

E=1.09\times10^{4}\ N/C

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field are 2.38\times10^{4}\ N/C and 1.09\times10^{4}\ N/C

As 390 g of hot milk cools in a mug, it transfers 30,000 J of heat to the environment. What is the temperature change of the mil
kotykmax [81]
The correct answer is 19.72 °C. The first step is to determine the amount of heat that was lost per gram (30,000 J) / (390 g) = 76.92 J/g. Then to determine the temperature change, divide 76.92 J/g with the given specific heat of milk (76.92 J/g) / (3.9 J/g°C) = 19.72 °C.
