Max (15 kg) and maya (12 kg) are riding on a merry-go-round that rotates at a constant speed. max is sitting on the edge of the

merry-go-round, 2.4 m from the center, and maya is 1.2 m from the center. considering max and maya to be one system of masses, what is their moment of inertia measured with respect to the center of the merry-go-round?

Answer:

103.68 NM

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> identify the given parameters

Max mass = 15kg

maya mass = 12kg

max distance from the center (a)= 2.4m

maya distance from the center (b) = 1.2m

Moment of inertia = M*r²

<u>Step 2:</u> calculate the moment of inertia (I) of max

I = M*r²

I = 15*(2.4)² = 86.4NM

<u>Step 3:</u> calculate moment of inertia of Maya

I = M*r²

I = 12*(1.2)² = 17.28NM

<u>Step 4: </u>find the total moment of inertia

Total moment of inertia = max moment of inertia + Maya moment of inertia

Total moment of inertia = 86.4 NM + 17.28NM

Total moment of inertia = 103.68 NM

A ball is suspended by a lightweight string, as shown in the figure above.
Irina18 [472]

<u>Answer </u>

A. 1 and 2

<u>Explanation </u>

At point 1 we have the highest potential energy and the kinetic energy is zero.

At 2 the potential energy is minimum and the kinetic energy is maximum.

The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So, the change in P.E = Change in K.E.

P.E = height × gravity × mass. The height referred here is the perpendicular height. Gravity and mass are constant in this case.

From the diagram it can be seen clearly that the vertical height from 2 to 1 is much greater than from 4 to 3.

This shows that the change in P.E is greater between 1 and 2 and so is kinetic energy.

Ask Your Teacher In the air over a particular region at an altitude of 500 m above the ground, the electric field is 120 N/C dir
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

Explanation:

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

A = Area

h = Altitude = 600 m

Electric flux through the top would be

-110A (negative as the electric field is going into the volume)

At the bottom

120A

Total flux through the volume

\phi=120-110\\\Rightarrow \phi=10A

Electric flux is given by

\phi=\dfrac{q}{\epsilon_0}\\\Rightarrow q=\phi\epsilon_0\\\Rightarrow q=10A\epsilon_0

Charge per volume is given by

\rho=\dfrac{q}{v}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10A\epsilon_0}{Ah}\\\Rightarrow \rho=dfrac{10\epsilon_0}{h}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{600}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

The volume charge density is 1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3
