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

Which of the following describes a condition in which an individual would not hear an echo?
IrinaVladis [17]
If the echo (the reflected sound) reaches your ear less than about
0.1 second after the original sound, your brain doesn't separate them,
and you're not aware of the echo even though it's there.

If the echo comes from, say, a wall, 0.1 second means you'd have to be
about  17 meters away from the wall.  If you're closer than that, then the
echo reaches you in less than 0.1 second and you're not aware of it.

A. 30 meters . . .
     No.  You hear that echo easily

B.  you're standing within range of both sounds . . .
     No. You hear that echo easily, if you're at least 17 meters from the wall.

C.  less than 0.1 second later . . .
     That's it.  The echo is there but your brain doesn't know it.

D.  21.5 meters
     No.  You hear that echo easily.

Astronomers observe two separate solar systems each consisting of a planet orbiting a sun. The two orbits are circular and have
Oxana [17]

Answer:

(D) 3

Explanation:

The angular momentum is given by:

\vec{L}=\vec{r}\ X \ \vec{p}

Thus, the magnitude of the angular momenta of both solar systems are given by:

L_1=Rm_1v_1=Rm_1(\omega R)=R^2m_1(\frac{2\pi}{T_1})=2\pi R^2\frac{m_1}{T_1}\\\\L_2=Rm_2v_2=2\pi R^2\frac{m_2}{T_2}

where we have taken that both systems has the same radius.

By taking into account that T1=3T2, we have

L_1=2\pi R^2\frac{m_1}{3T_2}=\frac{1}{3}2\pi R^2\frac{1}{T_2}m_1=\frac{1}{3}\frac{L_2}{m_2}m_1

but L1=L2=L:

L=\frac{1}{3}L\frac{m_1}{m_2}\\\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=3

Hence, the answer is (D) 3

Of the three forces acting on the rock as it slides down the bowl, which (if any) are constant and which are not? explain.
choli [55]

Answer

Hi,

The forces are; weight (gravity), Normal/centripetal force and friction. Force due to gravity is constant where as friction and centripetal are not.

Explanation

Weight is constant, given by the force of gravity on the object. The centripetal force is a function of the angles occurring between the velocity vector and the weight vector that is at right angle with the perpendicular line drawn from the surface. Friction is a function of the centripetal force thus it also varies.

Hope this helps!

an object weighting 100g is thrown upwards from the ground at a speed of 100 m/s.where will the potential energy of the object b
Kay [80]

Answer:

333.3 m

Explanation:

Given

m =100g\ =\  0.1kg\\v = 100 m/s\\g = 10 m/s ^2

Potential energy =\frac{2}{3}\  of\  Kinetic\  energy......Equation(1)

We know that

Potential energy=mgh

Kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Now From the Equation(1)

mgh=\frac{2}{3}*\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}\\  gh=\frac{v^{2} }{3} \\10 * h=\ \frac{10000}{3}\\ h=\ \frac{1000}{3} \\h=333.3\  m
