3. A 75 g , 33-cm-long rod hangs vertically on a frictionless, horizontal axle passing through its center. A 10 g ball of clay traveling horizontally at 2.2 m/s hits and sticks to the very bottom tip of the rod.

To what maximum angle, measured from vertical, does the rod (with the attached ball of clay) rotate?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Given that:

Mass of the rod, M = 75 g = 0.075 kg

Length of the rod, L = 33 cm = 0.33 m

Mass of ball, m = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Initial speed of the ball, V = 2.2 m/s

Moment of inertia of the rod-ball system is given by:

Apply law of conservation of angular momentum to determine angular speed of the rod+mass system:

Apply law of conservation of mechanical energy:

Initial rotational kinetic energy = Gravitational potential energy

That is Maximum angle the rod rotate is 25.9o

A thin 1.5-m-long uniform rod with a total mass of 1650 g is suspended vertically at the upper end. The moment of inertia of the rod in respect to the center of mass is mL2/12 (where L is the total length of the rod). A 12-g bullet is shot to the lower end of the rod and embeds there. The bullet speed before impact is 380 m/s. Calculate the amount of energy transferred to the heat during the collision.

Water is being pumped through a horizontal pipe that is 36.0 m long and 13.5 cm in diameter. A pump maintains a gauge pressure of 742 Pa at a large open tank at one end of the pipe. The other end of the pipe is open to the air. If this pipe is replaced by a second one of length 9 m and diameter 5.0 cm, what gauge pressure must the pump provide to give the same volume flow rate...

Water flows at 20 cm^3/sec through a long straight tube that has an inner diameter of 1 cm. As the water flows, a toxin leaches from the tube into the water. At the inner surface of the tube, the toxin attains its saturation concentration, Csat = 2 mM. Fortunately, upon entering the water the toxin also irreversibly degrades into a non-toxic compound; this degradation follows first-order kinetics. Toxin Diffusivity D = 10^-5 cm^2/sec Toxin mass transfer coefficient k = 1.38...
