    How Do You Calculate the Moment of Inertia for Different Shapes in Physics?

    1. Four small balls of identical mass 2.36 kg are arranged in a rigid structure as a regular tetrahedron. (A regular tetrahedron has four faces, each of which is an equilateral triangle.) Each edge of the tetrahedron has length 3.20 m. What is the moment of inertia of the system, for an axis of...

    Can someone explain/show how to set this problem up

    So, 3.0/2pi=.4774648 3.1 hours * 3600secs=11160 Secs Now what to do with the radius, and what equation to use thanks

    Can someone explain/show how to set this problem up

    A hamster runs in its wheel for 3.1 hours every night. If the wheel has a 6.8 cm radius and its average angular velocity is 3.0 radians per second, how far does the hamster run in one night?

    Could someone check if this is right soon.

    One more thing, how did you get the 5.208

    Could someone check if this is right soon.

    So is it Arctan(5.208/9.81)=27.96

    Could someone check if this is right soon.

    ArcTan doesn't give you the right answer. Could you help me at all, more in depthly.

    Could someone check if this is right soon.

    Could someone please check if this is right soon. please What would the bank angle be for a circular racetrack with radius 120 m so that a car can go around the curve safely at a maximum of 25 m/s, without the help of frictional force to keep it on the road? (25^2)/(120)/(9.80)=.53146...

    What is the Average Angular Acceleration of a Fan?

    The blades of a fan rotate clockwise at −225 rad/s at medium speed, and −355 rad/s at high speed. If it takes 3.05 seconds to get from medium to high speed, what is the average angular acceleration of the fan blades during this time? Is the answer -(355-225)/3.05 = 42.6 rad/s^2...

    What's Incorrect About Calculating Impulse in This Volleyball Spike Example?

    again this sounds dumb, but would add these as vectors give you (.48kg, 27.4m/s)

    What's Incorrect About Calculating Impulse in This Volleyball Spike Example?

    This probably sounds stupid but what do u mean by subtract them as vectors. I know know what vectors are but...

    What's Incorrect About Calculating Impulse in This Volleyball Spike Example?

    What wrong with this problem? A ball is traveling horizontally over a volleyball net when a player "spikes" it, driving it straight down to the ground. The ball's mass is 0.24 kg, its speed before being hit is 6.4 m/s and its speed immediately after the spike is 21 m/s. What is the magnitude of...

    Is the Momentum Calculation for the Circus Animals Accurate?

    At a circus animal training facility, a monkey rides a miniature motorscooter at a speed of 7.0 m/s. The monkey and scooter together have a mass of 32 kg. Meanwhile, a chimpanzee on roller skates with a total mass of 44 kg moves at a speed of 1.5 meters per second. The magnitude of the momentum...
