A student sitting at rest on a chair that is free to rotate holds a spinning bicycle wheel that rotates in the horizontal plane, shown in a). When the student flips the bicycle wheel over, as shown in b), he will

Prompt for the question...

spin in the same direction as the flipped bicycle wheel.

spin in the opposite direction as the flipped bicycle wheel.

not spin at all.

Expert Solution

Applying Conservation of Angular Momentum,

Initial Angular Momentum = Final Angular Momentum

Now since, Angular Momentum direction is reversed due to change spinning direction of wheel, Student will start spinning in opposite direction to the flipped bicycle wheel, to maintain the Angular momentum

ans: spin in the opposite direction as the flipped bicycle wheel

A wheel free to rotate about its axis that is not frictionless is initially at rest....

A wheel free to rotate about its axis that is not frictionless is initially at rest. A constant external torque of +53 N·m is applied to the wheel for 21 s, giving the wheel an angular velocity of +624 rev/min. The external torque is then removed, and the wheel comes to rest 120 s later. (Include the sign in your answers.) (a) Find the moment of inertia of the wheel. (b) Find the frictional torque, which is assumed to be...

A person is spinning in a chair with a dumbbell that has mass of 1.13 kg. He holds his arms out for one revolution and it takes 2.3 sec. Then he moves his arms in to his chest for one revolution and it takes 1.32 seconds. The radius when his arms are extended is .74 m. Calculate each of the following for arms extended and arms pulled in. Also can you briefly explain of what is happening in each. I...

You are sitting in a chair and decide to get up and cross the room to the kitchen to get something to eat (a snack). Describe the neural processes and networks involved in this process. Make sure you include everything from the cortical areas to the midbrain, cerebellum and spinal cord. And don’t forget alpha motor neurons and motor pools

Matt is sitting in a chair at a table anxiously waiting for his Chinese takeout to arrive. The doorbell rings and Matt moves from his chair to go to the door to meet the delivery person. In the process of moving from his chair to ultimately sitting back in his chair and eating his sweet and sour chicken with rice, he has to progress through a series of motions. First he must stand upright from his sitting position in the...

Pick a simple movement you perform everyday such as, sitting in a chair, drinking from a glass, etc. Explain how the movement occurs, including nerve roots, muscle contractions, angle of pull, etc. How would the movement change when various forces are applied to the movement (i.e. – drinking from a full glass versus an almost empty glass)?

The wheel of an engine starts to rotate from rest with uniform angular acceleration. It accelerates angularly for an unknown time (t1) until reaching an angular velocity of 45.13 rad / s, then maintains that angular velocity constant for 37.8 s. The total angle traveled by the wheel in total is 2398.61 rad. a) What is the angular acceleration with which the wheel began to rotate? b) What is the time (t1) that the wheel was accelerating? c) What is...

A merry-go-round is spinning at a rate of 5 revolutions per minute. Cora is sitting 0.5 m from the center of the merry-go -round and Cameron is sitting right on the edge, 2.0 m from the center. What is the relationship between rotational speed of the two children? a. Cameron's rotational speed is four times as much as Cora's rotational speed b. Cora's rotational speed is the same as Cameron's rotational speed c. Cora's rotational speed is four times as...

Consider the velocity the satellite ( 125 kg) has while sitting on and at rest with respect to the surface of the earth. Assume a latitude of 28.5 degrees N. Calculate the velocity the satellite has while on the earth's surface due to the rotation of the earth and how much additional velocity must be given to the satellite to reach orbit? this problem doesn't provide any more information, he didn't provide the radius of an orbit, that's why I'm...

A 2000kg large boxcar that rolls without friction is sitting at rest. It is shot by a 20kg cannonball traveling 150m/s. What will the final velocity of the boxcar be in the following situations? a.) The cannon ball breaks through the boxcar walls and continues forward at 50m/s. b.) The cannonball breaks through one wall of the boxcar and then gets stuck inside the car. c.) The cannonball bounces off the boxcar wall rebounding with a reverse velocity of -50m/s....
