A professor's office door is 0.99 m wide, 2.2 m high, 4.2 cm thick; has a mass of 27 kg, and pivots on frictionless hinges. A "d

oor closer" is attached to door and the top of the door frame. When the door is open and at rest, the door closer exerts a torque of 5.6 N*m. What is the moment of inertia of the door? If you let go of the open door, what is its angular acceleration immediately afterward?

Answer:

$I=8.8209\ kg.m^2$

$\alpha=0.6348\ rad.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given:

width of door, $w=0.99\ m$

height of the door, $h=2.2\ m$

thickness of the door, $t=4.2\ cm$

mass of the door, $m=27\ kg$

torque on the door, $\tau=5.6\ N.m$

<em>∵Since the thickness of the door is very less as compared to its other dimensions, therefore we treat it as a rectangular sheet.</em>

For a rectangular sheet we have the mass moment of inertia inertia as:

$I=\frac{1}{3} m.w^2$

$I=\frac{1}{3}\times 27\times 0.99^2$

$I=8.8209\ kg.m^2$

We have a relation between mass moment of inertia, torque and angular acceleration as:

$\alpha=\frac{\tau}{I}$

$\alpha=\frac{5.6}{8.8209}$

$\alpha=0.6348\ rad.s^{-2}$

Describe a well-known hypothesis that was discarded because it was found to be untrue.earth-centered model of the universe. the

polet [3.4K]

The widely accepted hypothesis before that turned out wrong was the Earth-Centered theory or the Geocentric Theory. This was proposed by the philosopher Ptolemy. He came about to this hypothesis from hi observation that from the Earth's perspective, the celestial bodies like the Sun, stars and the moon, look like they rotate around the Earth each day and night. However, this was disproved by Galileo Galelei by his Heliocentric Theory. He observed through the telescope that the Venus also changes phases like the moon. However, he deduced that this is not possible from the positions of the Venus, Earth, Moon and Sun.

Superman is standing 393 m horizontally away from Lois Lane. A villain drops a rock from 4.00 m directly above Lois. If Superman

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

-963.93 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 4=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.903\ s$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 393=0\times 0.0903+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 0.903^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{393\times 2}{0.903^2}\\\Rightarrow a=963.93\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of Superman would be -963.93 m/s² from Lois' perspective

You are standing at the midpoint between two speakers, a distance D away from each. The speakers are playing the exact same soun

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

wave length of sound waves = velocity / frequency

= 340 / 170

λ = 2 m.

When the position of man is exactly at the meddle point between the speakers , sound waves from the speakers reaching man are in same phases ( path difference is zero. ) so intensity of sound is maximum .

Now , the man starts moving towards one of the speakers , his distance from one speaker becomes closer than the other creating path difference for the sound waves reaching his ears.

If he walks a distance of .5 m towards one speaker , path difference created

= .5 x 2 = 1 m

So , path difference = λ /2 ,

there will be destructive interference so minimum sound will be heard there.

When he walks a distance of 1 m , path difference created = 2m

path difference = λ

so there is constructive interference and maximum sound will be heard there.

Again we he walks a distance of 1.5 m , path difference created = 3 m

path difference = 3 λ /2

So there will be destructive interference so minimum sound will be heard there.

In this way we see that man starts from a point of maximum sound intensity , reaches a point of minimum sound intensity , then reaches a point of maximum sound intensity . At last he reaches a position of minimum sound intensity.

The Bernoulli equation is valid for steady, inviscid, incompressible flows with a constant acceleration of gravity. Consider flo

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

$p+\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2}+ρg_{0}z-\frac{1}{2}ρcz^{2}=constant$

Explanation:

first write the newtons second law:

F $_{s}$ =δma $_{s}$

Applying bernoulli,s equation as follows:

∑ $δp+\frac{1}{2} ρδV^{2} +δγz=0\\$

Where, $δp$ is the pressure change across the streamline and $V$ is the fluid particle velocity

substitute $ρg$ for {tex]γ[/tex] and $g_{0}-cz$ for $g$

$dp+d(\frac{1}{2}V^{2}+ρ(g_{0}-cz)dz=0$

integrating the above equation using limits 1 and 2.

$\int\limits^2_1 \, dp +\int\limits^2_1 {(\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2} )} \, +ρ \int\limits^2_1 {(g_{0}-cz )} \,dz=0\\p_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}ρ(V^{2})_{1}^{2}+ρg_{0}z_{1}^{2}-ρc(\frac{z^{2}}{2})_{1}^{2}=0\\p_{2}-p_{1}+\frac{1}{2}ρ(V^{2}_{2}-V^{2}_{1})+ρg_{0}(z_{2}-z_{1})-\frac{1}{2}ρc(z^{2}_{2}-z^{2}_{1})=0\\p+\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2}+ρg_{0}z-\frac{1}{2}ρcz^{2}=constant$

there the bernoulli equation for this flow is $p+\frac{1}{2}ρV^{2}+ρg_{0}z-\frac{1}{2}ρcz^{2}=constant$

note: $ρ$ =density(ρ) in some parts and change(δ) in other parts of this equation. it just doesn't show up as that in formular
