A firecracker before been lit has potential energy in it. It is chemical potential energy which is due to the explosives in it.When it is lit, it gets converted into heat,light and kinetic energy.
The moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere is equal to 0.448 
.
<u>Given the following data:</u>
Mass of sphere = 7 kg.
Radius of sphere = 0.4 meter.
<h3>How to calculate moment of inertia.</h3>
Mathematically, the moment of inertia of a solid sphere is given by this formula:
<u>Where:</u>
- I is the moment of inertia.
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
I = 0.448 .

Answer:
0.173 m.
Explanation:
The fundamental frequency of a closed pipe is given as
fc = v/4l .................. Equation 1
Where fc = fundamental frequency of a closed pipe, v = speed of sound l = length of the pipe.
Making l the subject of the equation,
l = v/4fc ................ Equation 2
also
v = 331.5×0.6T ................. Equation 3
Where T = temperature in °C, T = 18.0 °c
Substitute into equation 3
v = 331.5+0.6(18)
v = 331.5+10.8
v = 342.3 m/s.
Also given: fc = 494 Hz,
Substitute into equation 2
l = 342.3/(4×494)
l = 342.3/1976
l =0.173 m.
Hence the length of the organ pipe = 0.173 m.
I was about to say: because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.
But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.
"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science.
First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news. Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.
Second, let's face it. The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.
There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned. But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.
That's pretty much why.
