A popular ride at some playgrounds consists of two circular disks joined by rungs . The center of the unit is attached to a hori

zontal axle around which the unit rotates. The rotational inertia of the unit is 550 kg⋅m2 , and its radius is 1.00 m. A 30-kg child runs and grabs the bottom rung of the ride when it is initially at rest. Because the child can pull herself up to meet the rung at waist height, treat her as a particle located on the rung. The friction between unit and axle is minimal and can be ignored. What is the minimum speed v the child must have when she grabs the bottom rung in order to make the unit rotate about its axle and carry her over the top of the unit? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

v = 36.667 m/s

Explanation:

Knowing the rotational inertia as

Lₙ = 550 kg * m²

r = 1.0 m

m = 30.0 kg

To determine the minimum speed v must have when she grabs the bottom

Lₙ =  I * ω

I = ¹/₂ * m * r²

I = ¹/₂ * 30.0 kg * 1.0² m

I = 15 kg * m²

Lₙ =  I * ω  ⇒ ω =  Lₙ / I

ω = [ 550 kg * m² /s  ] / ( 15 kg * m² )

ω = 36.667 rad /s

v = ω * r

v = 36.667 m/s

beks73 [17]
The electrical potential energy of a charge q located at a point at potential V is given by
U=qV
Therefore, if the charge must move between two points at potential V1 and V2, the difference in potential energy of the charge will be
\Delta U = q (V_2 -V_1)=q \Delta V

In our problem, the electron (charge e) must travel across a potential difference V. So the energy it will lose traveling from the metal to the detector will be equal to 
\Delta U = e V
Therefore, if we want the electron to reach the detector, the minimum energy the electron must have is exactly equal to the energy it loses moving from the metal to the detector:
E_{min} = \Delta U = eV

16. A 7500 kg 18-wheeler traveling at 20 m/s exits onto the runaway truck ramp on the freeway.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

<em>765,000 Joule</em>

Explanation:

<u>Principle of Conservation of Energy </u>

The total energy in an isolated system cannot be created or destroyed, but transformed. Moving objects have kinetic energy, objects placed in some height above a reference level have gravitational potential energy. When they change their motion variables, one energy converts into the other, but if the numbers don't fit, we know there was some other type of energy acting into the system. The most common reason for energy 'losses' is the thermal energy, produced when objects move in rough surfaces or take friction from the air.

The 7,500 kg truck is originally traveling at 20 m/s to a certain height we'll set to 0. Thus, its total energy is  

\displaystyle E_1=\frac{mv^2}{2}

\displaystyle E_1=\frac{7,500\ 20^2}{2}

E_1=1,500,000\ Joule

When it comes to a stop, its speed is 0 and its height is 10 m higher than before. It means all the kinetic energy was transformed into other types of energy. The gravitational potential energy is

U=mgh=(7,500)(9.8)(10)=735,000\ Joule

Since this number is not equal to the previous value of the energy, the difference is due to thermal energy dissipated by friction

E_t=1,500,000\ Joule-735,000\ Joule=765,000\ Joule

For a particular reaction, the change in enthalpy is 51kJmole and the activation energy is 109kJmole. Which of the following cou
Ronch [10]

Answer

given,

change in enthalpy = 51 kJ/mole

change in activation energy = 109 kJ/mole

when a reaction is catalysed change in enthalpy between the product and the reactant does not change it remain constant.

where as activation energy of the product and the reactant decreases.

example:

ΔH = 51 kJ/mole

E_a= 83 kJ/mole

here activation energy decrease whereas change in enthalpy remains same.

What principles of science (like facts, laws, and theories) might help explain why similar investigations conducted in many part
natulia [17]

Answer:

Reproducibility of research

Explanation:

The principle of science that explains why similar experimental investigations conducted in different parts of the world could result in the same outcome is referred to as reproducibility.

<em>A good research or experiment in science must be reproducible, otherwise, the outcome of such an experiment might become inadmissible within the scientific community. It is a core principle of the scientific method that similar results should be obtained when an experiment or observational study conducted in one place is repeated in another place with the same procedure. Hence, an experiment must be reproducible in science in order for the outcome of such an experiment to be part of the general scientific knowledge. </em>
