A solid wood door 1.00mwide and 2.00mhigh is hinged along one side and has a total mass of 40.0kg. Initially open and at rest, the door is truck at its center by a handful of sticky mud with mass 0.500kg, travelling perpendicular to the door at 12.0m/sjust before impact. Find the final angular speed of the door. Does the mud make a significant contribution to the moment of inertia?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Thus, the final angular speed is0.875rev/s

Step by step solution

01

Conservation of angular momentum.

Apply the law of conservation of angular momentum to a system whose moment of inertia changes gives:

IiÓ¬i=IfÓ¬f=constant

02

Initial momentum of the wood.

The initial momentum of the wood is solved as:

Linitial=Lcoor+Lmud=0+mVr=0+(0.5)(12)(0.5)=3

03

Moment of inertia of the door.

The total moment of inertia with arms rapped around the body is solved as:

Idoor=13mR2=13×40×(0.5)2=103=3.3

04

Moment of inertia of the mud.

Imud=mR2=0.5×(0.5)2=0.125

05

Use conservation of angular momentum.

Use the conservation of angular momentum to obtain angular speed:

Linitital=Lfinal3=(3.3+0.125)Ó¬fÓ¬f=33.425=0.875


Hence, the final angular speed is0.875rev/s

Your uncle is in the below-deck galley of his boat while you are spear fishing in the water nearby. An errant spear makes a small hole in the boat’s hull, and water starts to leak into the galley. (a) If the hole is 0.09 m below the water surface and has area 1.20 cm2, how long does it take 10.0 L of water to leak into the boat? (b) Do you need to take into consideration the fact that the boat sinks lower into the water as water leaks in?

A Simple Reaction-Time Test.A meter stick is held vertically above your hand, with the lower end between your thumb and first finger. When you see the meter stick released, you grab it with those two fingers. You can calculate your reaction time from the distance the meter stick falls, read directly from the point where your fingers grabbed it. (a) Derive a relationship for your reaction time in terms of this measured distance, d. (b) If the measured distance is 17.6 cm, what is your reaction time?
