A solid metal sphere of diameter D is spinning in a gravity-free region of space with an angular velocity of ωi. The sphere is s

lowly heated until it reaches its melting temperature, at which point it flattens into a uniform disk of thickness D 2 . By what factor is the angular velocity changed? (Give your answer as a factor of ωi.)

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{D}{2})^3

Thus \pi * r^2 * (\frac{D}{2} ) = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{D}{2})^3

The radius of the disk is 1.15(\frac{ D}{2} )

Applying angular momentum conservation;

The M_i of the sphere = \frac{2}{5} m \frac{D}{2}^2

M_i of the disk = m*\frac{ \frac{1.15*D}{2}^2 }{2}

\frac{wd}{ws} = \frac{\frac{2}{5}m * \frac{D}{2}^2}{ m * \frac{(\frac{`.`5*D}{2})^2 }{2} }

= 0.6

ValentinkaMS [1144]

Answer:

When ice is subjected to heat, it melts; however, the temperature remains constant at 0◦ C.

Explanation:

Solution

The heat supplied by the heater is solely utilized for the melting of the ice, thus maintaining the temperature at 0◦ C.

Once all the ice has liquefied, the temperature of the resulting water will start to rise over time.

Note: please see the attached document with solutions featuring diagrams related to this explanation

inna [987]

Explanation:

The term 'collision' refers to the interaction between two objects. There are two distinct types of collisions: elastic and inelastic.

In this scenario, two identical carts are heading towards each other at the same speed, resulting in a collision. In an inelastic collision, the momentum is conserved before and after the incident, but kinetic energy is lost.

After the event, both objects combine and move together at a single velocity.

The graph representing a perfectly inelastic collision is attached, illustrating that both carts move together at the same speed afterward.

Explain the challenges in developing an accurate rating system for earthquakes. What kinds of variables are there?
Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer:

The primary factors that influence the intensity of shaking during an earthquake include the depth of the quake, its distance from the fault line, the type of soil below, and specifics about the buildings—especially their height. We will focus on the last two (soil quality and structures) and their interaction.
