A solid cylinder has a mass of 5 kg and radius of 2 m and is fixed so that it is able to rotate freely around its center without friction. A 0.02 kg bullet is moving from right to left with an angular momentum of 9 kgm2s just before it strikes the cylinder near its bottom and gets stuck at the outer radius. What is the angular velocity (magnitude and direction) of the cylinder bullet system after the impact

0.893 rad/s in the clockwise direction

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of angular momentum,

angular momentum before impact = angular momentum after impact

L₁ = L₂

L₁ = angular momentum of bullet = + 9 kgm²/s (it is positive since the bullet tends to rotate in a clockwise direction from left to right)

L₂ = angular momentum of cylinder and angular momentum of bullet after collision.

L₂ = (I₁ + I₂)ω where I₁ = rotational inertia of cylinder = 1/2MR² where M = mass of cylinder = 5 kg and R = radius of cylinder = 2 m, I₂ = rotational inertia of bullet about axis of cylinder after collision = mR² where m = mass of bullet = 0.02 kg and R = radius of cylinder = 2m and ω = angular velocity of system after collision

So,

L₁ = L₂

L₁ = (I₁ + I₂)ω

ω = L₁/(I₁ + I₂)

ω = L₁/(1/2MR² + mR²)

ω = L₁/(1/2M + m)R²

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ω = L₁/(1/2M + m)R²

ω = + 9 kgm²/s/(1/2 × 5 kg + 0.02 kg)(2 m)²

ω = + 9 kgm²/s/(2.5 kg + 0.02 kg)(4 m²)

ω = + 9 kgm²/s/(2.52 kg)(4 m²)

ω = +9 kgm²/s/10.08 kgm²

ω = + 0.893 rad/s

The angular velocity of the cylinder bullet system is 0.893 rad/s in the clockwise direction-since it is positive.

answer; /// i believe that the correct answer is (c)

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it

hope this
