A satellite in the shape of a solid sphere of mass 1,900 kg and radius 4.6 m is spinning about an axis through its center of mas
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Therefore, the new rotation rate of the satellite is 6.3 rev/s.

Explanation:

The expression for conservation of the angular momentum (L) is

L_{i} = L_{f}  I_{i}\times\omega_{i} = I_{f}\times\omega_{f}

Where

I_{i}\ and \ \omega_{i} initial moment of inertia and angular velocity

I_{f}\ and \ \omega_{f} is the final moment of inertia and angular velocity

The expression of moment of inertia of the satellite (a solid sphere) is

I_{i} = \frac{2}{5}m_{s}r^{2}

Where m_{s} is the satellite mass

r is the  radus of the sphere

Substititute 1900kg for m and 4.6m for r

I_{i} = \frac{2}{5}m_{s}r^{2}\\\\ = \frac{2}{5}\times1900 kg\times (4.6 m)^{2} \\\\= 1.61 \cdot 10^{4} kgm^{2}

The final moment of inertia of the satellite about the centre of mass

I_{f} = I_{i} + 2\timesI_{x} \\\\= 1.61 \cdot 10^{4} kgm^{2} + 2\times\frac{1}{3}m_{x}l^{2}

Where m_{x} is the antenna's mass and

I is the length of the antenna

I_{f} = 1.61 \cdot 10^{4} kgm^{2} + 2\times\frac{1}{3}150.0 kg\times(6.6 m)^{2} \\\\= 2.05 \cdot 10^{4} kgm^{2}

So, the Final rotation rate of the satellite is:

I_{i}\times\omega_{i} = I_{f}\times\omega_{f} \\\\\omega_{f} = \frac{I_{i}\times\omega_{i}}{I_{f}} \\\\= \frac{1.61 \cdot 10^{4} kgm^{2}\times8.0 \frac{rev}{s}}{2.05 \cdot 10^{4} kgm^{2}} \\\\= 6.3 rev/s

Therefore, the new rotation rate of the satellite is 6.3 rev/s.

Antifreeze is a "must have" in an Albertan winter because it helps keep your vehicle engine from freezing in cold temperatures.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Products such as antifreeze are composed of organic compounds that are classified as <em>alcohols</em>. (a)

Maybe those other classes of chemicals also lower the freezing temperature of water, just like alcohol does.  I don't know.  But alcohol is what's used to make anti-freeze.  I'm guessing alcohol must be cheaper, less toxic, and less corrosive inside the engines' cooling systems than any of that other stuff is.

single goose sounds a loud warning when an intruder enters the farmyard. Some distance from the goose, you measure the sound lev
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The sound level of the 26 geese is  Z_{26}= 96.15 dB

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sound level is Z_1 =  81.0 \ dB

     The number of geese is N = 26

Generally the intensity level of sound is mathematically represented as

        The intensity of sound level in dB  for one  goose is mathematically represented as

                       Z_1 = 10 log [\frac{I}{I_O} ]

Where I_o is the  threshold level of intensity with value  I_o = 1*10^{-12} \  W/m^2

            I is the intensity for one goose in W/m^2

For 26 geese the intensity would be  

          I_{26} = 26 * I

   Then  the intensity of 26 geese in dB is  

              Z_{26} = 10 log[\frac{26 I }{I_o} ]

               Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 *  [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )

               Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26  \ \ ) *   (\ \  10 log [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )

 From the law of logarithm we have that

              Z_{26} = 10 log 26 +  10 log [\frac{I}{I_0} ]

                    = 14.15 + 82

                    Z_{26}= 96.15 dB

If the marshmallows represent the atoms in the substance, which change of state is Freida modeling Freida wants to model the way
sashaice [31]

Answer: Melting

Explanation:

When Frieda made a pyramid of marshmallows, she was representing the atoms in a solid substance as the atoms are clumped together and unable to move.

When she then knocks it down, she is showing the movement of atoms in a liquid substance as they are now freer than they were before. The process by which substances go from solid to liquid is melting.
