A 150 g ball and a 240 g ball are connected by a 33-cm-long, massless, rigid rod. The balls rotate about their center of mass at 150 rpm . Part A What is the speed of the 150 g ball? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units

Respuesta :

Answer:

v= 3.18 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m= 150 g = 0.15 kg

M= 240 g = 0.24 kg

Angular speed ,ω = 150 rpm

The speed in rad/s

[tex]\omega =\dfrac{2\pi N}{60}[/tex]

[tex]\omega =\dfrac{2\pi \times 150}{60}[/tex]

ω = 15.7 rad/s

The distance of center of mass from 150 g

[tex]r=\dfrac{150\times 0+240\times 33}{150+240}\ cm[/tex]

r= 20.30 cm

The speed of the mass 150 g

v= ω r

v= 20.30 x 15.7 cm/s

v= 318.71 cm/s

v= 3.18 m/s

The speed of the 150 g ball rotating about its center mass is 3.2 m/s.

The given parameters;

  • mass of the first ball, m₁ = 150 g
  • mass of the second ball, mā‚‚ = 240 g
  • length of the second ball, Lā‚‚ = 33 cm
  • angular speed of the balls, ω = 150 rpm

The angular speed of the balls in radian per second;

[tex]\omega = 150 \ \frac{rev}{\min} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{rev} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s } \\\\\omega = 15.71 \ rad/s[/tex]

The length of the second Ā mass is calculated as follows;

[tex]L_2 =\frac{240(33)}{150 + 240} \\\\L_2 = 20.31 \ cm = 0.2031 \ m[/tex]

The speed of the 150 g ball is calculated as follows;

[tex]v = 0.2031 \times 15.71\\\\\ v = 3.2 \ m/s[/tex]
