Answer:

D. Speed up the assembly line transfer mechanism

Explanation:

All of the options are logic and very intelligent ways to reduce the longest task time, but if you just speed up the assembly line transfer you will end up with two possible outcomes, frustrated workers cause they always have to be rushing up to finish their task and thus a lower quality in the product you are producing, or that the workers on that specific part of the assembly line definetely can´t perform the task and endu up not doing their job and you end up with incomplete products.

What is the total kinetic energy of a 0.15 kg hockey puck sliding at 0.5 m/s and rotating about its center at 8.4 rad/s? The dia
ycow [4]
The mass of the puck is
m = 0.15 kg.
The diameter of the puck is 0.076 m, therefore its radius  is
r = 0.076/2 = 0.038 m
The sliding speed is
v = 0.5 m/s
The angular velocity is
ω = 8.4 rad/s

The rotational moment of inertia of the puck is
I = (mr²)/2
  = 0.5*(0.15 kg)*(0.038 m)²
  = 1.083 x 10⁻⁴ kg-m²

The kinetic energy of the puck is the sum of the translational and rotational kinetic energy.
The translational KE is
KE₁ = (1/2)*m*v²
       = 0.5*(0.15 kg)*(0.5 m/s)²
       = 0.0187 j

The rotational KE is
KE₂ = (1/2)*I*ω²
       = 0.5*(1.083 x 10⁻⁴ kg-m²)*(8.4 rad/s)²
       = 0.0038 J

The total KE is
KE = 0.0187 + 0.0038 = 0.0226 J

Answer: 0.0226 J

3. A 4.1 x 10-15 C charge is able to pick up a bit of paper when it is initially 1.0 cm above the paper. Assume an induced charg
Anni [7]

Answer:

\mathbf{1.51\times10^{-15}N}

Explanation:

The computation of the weight of the paper in newtons is shown below:

On the paper, the induced charge is of the same magnitude as on the initial charges and in sign opposite.

Therefore the paper charge is

q_{paper}=-4.1\times10^{-15}C

Now the distance from the charge is

r=1cm=0.01m

Now, to raise the paper, the weight of the paper acting downwards needs to be managed by the electrostatic force of attraction between both the paper and the charge, i.e.

mg=\frac{k_{e}q_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

\Rightarrow W=mg

=\frac{9\times10^{9}\times(4.1\times10^{-15})^{2}}{0.01^{2}}

=\mathbf{1.51\times10^{-15}N}
