2. A can filled with sand has a mass of 0.65kg is swung overhead in a horizontal circle of radius 0.70m at a constant rate of 2.5 revolutions per second. Find the angular momentum of the rock.

Respuesta :

Answer;

≈ 5 Kgm²/sec

Explanation;

Angular momentum is given by the formula

L = Iω, where I is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular speed.

I = mr², where m is the mass and r is the radius

 = 0.65 × 0.7²

 = 0.3185

Angular speed, ω = v/r

                              = (2 × 3.142 × r × 2.5) r

                              =  15.71

Therefore;

Angular momentum =  Iω

                                 = 0.3185 × 15.71

                                 = 5.003635

                                 ≈ 5 Kgm²/sec
