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

In levelling, the following staff readings were observed involving an inverted staff, A = 2.915 and B = -2.028. What is the rise
salantis [7]

Answer:

The rise from A to B is 0.887

Solution:

As per the question:

The following reading of an inverted staff is given as:

A = 2.915

B = -2.028

Here, for inverted staff, the greater reading shows greater elevation and lesser reading shows lower elevation.

Thus

The rise from A to B is given as:

A - B = 2.915 - 2.028 = 0.887

Ned tightens a bolt in his car engine by exerting 15 N of force on his wrench at a distance of 0.45m from the fulcrum. How much
____ [38]

Answer:

T = 6.75\,N\cdot m

Explanation:

Vectorially speaking, torque is the cross product between force and distance from fulcrum. Its magnitude is equal to the following expression:

T = F\cdot r \cdot \sin \theta

T = F_{\bot} \cdot r

Let assume that force is perpendicular to the distance from the fulcrum. So, the torque needed to turn the bolt is:

T = (15\,N)\cdot (0.45\,m)

T = 6.75\,N\cdot m
