A pressure cooker is a pot whose lid can be tightly sealed to prevent gas from entering or escaping. even without knowing how bi

g the pressure cooker is, or what altitude it is being used at, we can make predictions about how much force the lid will experience under different conditions.

Even without knowing the size of the pressure cooker or the altitude at which the pressure cooker will be used, we can easily determine the force on the lid by experience because just as boiling water, the amount of pressure inside the vessel (in this case, the cooker) increases as the temperature increases.

Two disks with the same rotational inertia i are spinning about the same frictionless shaft, with the same angular speed ω, but
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

3. none of these

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy of an object is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}I \omega^2

where

I is the moment of inertia

\omega is the angular speed

In this problem, we have two objects rotating, so the total rotational kinetic energy will be the sum of the rotational energies of each object.

For disk 1:

K_1 = \frac{1}{2}I (\omega)^2 = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

For disk 2:

K_2 = \frac{1}{2}I(-\omega)^2 = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

so the total energy is

K=K_1 + K_2 = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = I\omega^2

So, none of the options is correct.

Which trailer has more downward pressure where it attaches to the car?
VARVARA [1.3K]

The one that is loaded worst. The overall weight is not important; tongue weight is a matter of loading. Our 12,000 lb snow cat trailer, which has stops to position the cat properly, has under 100 lbs tongue weight. Excessive tongue weight is a Bad Thing because it reduces weight on the towing vehicle's front wheels, leading to instability.

a 59kg physics student jumps off the back of her laser sailboat (42kg). after she jumps the laser is found to be travelling at 1
evablogger [386]

From the conservation of linear momentum of closed system,

Initial momentum = final momentum

Mass of the student, M = 59 kg

Mass of the laser boat, m = 42 kg

Initial speed of student + laser boat, u =0

Final speed of laser boat, v = 1.5 m/s

Final speed of the student = V

(M+m) u =M V +m v

0 = (59 kg) V + (42 kg) (1.5m/s)

V = - 1.06 m/s

Thus, the speed of the student is 1.06 m/s in the opposite direction of the motion of boat.

It's your birthday, and to celebrate you're going to make your first bungee jump. You stand on a bridge 110 m above a raging riv
zzz [600]

Answer:

h=20.66m

Explanation:

First we need the speed when the cord starts stretching:

V_2^2=V_o^2-2*g*\Delta h

V_2^2=-2*10*(-31)

V_2=24.9m/s   This will be our initial speed for a balance of energy.

By conservation of energy:

m*g*h+1/2*K*(h_o-l_o-h)^2-m*g*(h_o-l_o)-1/2*m*V_2^2=0

Where

h is your height at its maximum elongation

h_o is the height of the bridge

l_o is the length of the unstretched bungee cord

800h+21*(79-h)^2-63200-24800.4=0

21h^2-2518h+43060.6=0 Solving for h:

h_1=20.66m  and h_2=99.24m  Since 99m is higher than the initial height of 79m, we discard that value.

So, the final height above water is 20.66m
