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}}

A 0.20 kg baseball is traveling at 40 m/s toward the batter. The ball is hit by the bat with a force of 200N, and is
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Time, t = 0.015 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 0.2kg

Force, F = 200N

Initial velocity, u = 40m/s

Final velocity, v = 25m/s

To find the time;

Ft = m(v - u)

Time, t = m(v - u)/f

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Time, t = 0.2(25 - 40)/200

Time, t = 0.2(-15)/200

Time, t = 3/200

Time, t = 0.015 seconds.

Note: We ignored the negative sign because time can't be negative.

What do the different colors in a line spectrum represent? why are the spectra for each element unique?
Lana71 [14]
They typically represents different wavelengths of element due to its energy emission in the form of visible light. When an electron of that particular element move from a higher energy level down to a lower energy level, it gives off energy in the form of photon emission. Atom of a certain element has a unique electron arrangement thus it can considered that particular element's spectrum is unique.

Calculate the maximum capillary rise/fall of mercury in a 0.5 mm radius glass capillary. Assume that the surface tension for mer
tekilochka [14]

Answer: 0.01 m

Explanation: The formulae for capillarity rise or fall is given below as

h = (2T×cosθ)/rpg

Where θ = angle mercury made with glass = 50°

T = surface tension = 0.51 N/m

g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²

r = radius of tube = 0.5mm = 0.0005m

p = density of mercury.

h = height of rise or fall

From the question, specific gravity of density = 13.3

Where specific gravity = density of mercury/ density of water, where density of water = 1000 kg/m³

Hence density of mercury = 13.3×1000 = 13,300 kg/m³.

By substituting parameters, we have that

h = 2×0.51×cos 50/0.0005×9.8×13,300

h = 0.6556/65.17

h = 0.01 m
