To solve this problem we will derive the expression of the precession period from the moment of inertia of the given object. We will convert the units that are not in SI, and finally we will find the precession period with the variables found. Let's start defining the moment of inertia.

Here,
M = Mass
R = Radius of the hoop
The precession frequency is given as

Here,
M = Mass
g= Acceleration due to gravity
d = Distance of center of mass from pivot
I = Moment of inertia
= Angular velocity
Replacing the value for moment of inertia


The value for our angular velocity is not in SI, then


Replacing our values we have that


The precession frequency is




Therefore the precession period is 5.4s
Answer:
The body is said to be in static equilibrium if the net force acting on a body at rest is zero.As the net force is zero,the body will not undergo motion.
Explanation:
An important difference between a universal and a split-phase motor is that the split-phase motor has
A. two brushes attached to the stator.
B. a single coil formed on the rotor.
<u>C. two windings on the stator. </u>
D. an armature with a commutator.
Answer:
a) that laser 1 has the first interference closer to the central maximum
c) Δy = 0.64 m
Explanation:
The interference phenomenon is described by the expression
d sin θ = m λ
Where d is the separation of the slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer that indicates the order of interference
For the separation of the lines we use trigonometry
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = y / x
In interference experiments the angle is very small
tan θ = sin θ = y / x
d y / x = m λ
a) and b) We apply the equation to the first laser
λ = d / 20
d y / x = m d / 20
y = m x / 20
y = 1 4.80 / 20
y = 0.24 m
The second laser
λ = d / 15
d y / x = m d / 15
y = m x / 15
y = 0.32 m
We can see that laser 1 has the first interference closer to the central maximum
c) laser 1
They ask us for the second maximum m = 2
y₂ = 2 4.8 / 20
y₂ = 0.48 m
For laser 2 they ask us for the third minimum m = 3
In this case to have a minimum we must add half wavelength
y₃ = (m + ½) x / 15
m = 3
y₃ = (3 + ½) 4.8 / 15
y₃ = 1.12 m
Δy = 1.12 - 0.48
Δy = 0.64 m
Answer:
a) the velocity increases then decreases.
