The moment of inertia is the rotational analog of mass, and it is given by

the product of mass and the square of the distance from the axis.

The moment of inertia changes as the position of the weight is changed, which indicates that; statement is incorrect

Reasons:

The weight on each arm that have adjustable positions can be considered as point masses.

The moment of inertia of a point mass is <em>I</em> = m·r²

Where;

m = The mass of the weight

r = The distance (position) from the center to which the weight is adjusted

Therefore;

The moment of inertia, <em>I </em>∝ r²

Which gives;

Doubling the distance from the center of rotation, increases the moment of inertia by factor of 4.

Therefore, the statement contradicts the relationship between the radius of rotation and moment of inertia.

Which of the following objects have gravitational potential energy?

Brut [27]

Answer:

The apple

Explanation:

The apple has gravitational potential energy because it is just sitting there but nothing is pushing it up, it is not sitting on something. This means that it has a lot of gravitational potential energy as nothing is pushing it up.

An ion with charge of Q = +3.2 x 10-19 C is in a region where a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 5.0 X 105 V/m is perpend

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

Q = +3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

E = 5.0 X 10⁵ V/m

B = 0.80 T

ion's acceleration is zero

when acceleration is zero the magnitude of both the forces becomes equal.

q E = q V B

v = $\dfrac{E}{B}$

v= $\dfrac{5 \times 10^5}{0.80}$

v = 6.25 × 10⁵ m/s ≈ 6.3 × 10⁵ m/s

hence, the correct answer is option C

A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a dra

bija089 [108]

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is given by:

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho C_dA}}$

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration, $C_d$ is the drag coefficient, $\rho$ is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

$A=\frac{A_s}{2}=\frac{930cm^2}{2}=465cm^2\\465cm^2*\frac{1m^2}{10^4cm^2}=0.0465m^2\\560g*\frac{1kg}{10^3g}=0.56kg$

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is $1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}$ .

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.56kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}{(1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}(1)(0.0465m^2)}}\\v_t=13.58\frac{m}{s}$

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

$v_f^2=v_o^2+2gh\\v_f=\sqrt{2gh}\\v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5m)}\\v_f=9.9\frac{m}{s}$
