Hi there!

We can use the conservation of angular momentum to solve.

L_i = L_f\\\\I\omega_i = I\omega_f

I = moment of inertia (kgm²)

ω = angular velocity (rad/sec)

Recall the following equations for the moment of inertia.

\text{Solid cylinder:} I = \frac{1}{2}MR^2\\\\\text{Object around center:} = MR^2

Begin by converting rev/sec to rad sec:


\frac{0.17rev}{s} * \frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev} = 1.068 \frac{rad}{s}

According to the above and the given information, we can write an equation and solve for ωf.

1.068(\frac{1}{2}(34)(1.6)^2 + (79)(1.6)^2) = \omega_f(\frac{1}{2}(34)(1.6^2) + 79(0^2))\\\\\omega_f = \boxed{6.03 \frac{rad}{sec}}

What is the speed of a commercial jet which travels form New York to Los Angeles (4800) in 6 hours
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Speed = 800km}/hr

Explanation:

Given

Distance = 4800km

Time = 6hr

Required

Determine the speed of the jet

The speed is calculated as:

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Substitute 4800 km for Distance and 6hr for Time

Speed = \frac{4800km}{6hr}

Speed = 800km}/hr

<em>Hence, the speed of the commercial jet is 800km/hr</em>
