A cockroach of mass m lies on the rim of a uniform disk of mass 6.00*m that can rotate freely about its center. Initially the cockroach and disk rotate together with an angular velocity of 0.362 rad/s. The the cockroach walks halfway to the center of the disk.

(a) what then is the angular velocity of the cockroach-disk system?

(b) What is the ratio of the new kinetic energy of the system to its initial kinetic energy?

Taylor's experiment: 1. accurately measured the speed of light 2. locked together the phases of two light sources so that the interference pattern would not shift 3. showed that man's reaction time was much slower than the speed of light 4. showed that individual photons have wave characteristics

The image shows the positions of a car on a roller coaster track. arrange the cars in order based on their gravitational potential energy. begin with the lowest potential energy and end with the highest.

Aball is thrown upward. at a height of 10 meters above the ground, the ball has a potential energy of 50 joules (with the potential energy equal to zero at ground level) and is moving upward with a kinetic energy of 50 joules. what is the maximum height h reached by the ball? consider air friction to be negligible. 1. h ≈ 10 m 2. h ≈ 50 m 3. h ≈ 30 m 4. h ≈ 40 m 5. h ≈ 20 m 003 10.0 points which of the two object shown below has the greatest kinetic energy? a m b 1 2 m v 2v 1. kinetic energies are the same. 2. a 3. b 4. unable to determine. 004 10.0 points tim, with mass 74.6 kg, climbs a gymnasium rope a distance of 3.1 m. the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . how much potential energy does tim gain? answer in units of j. 005 10.0 points a car is moving at 64 miles per hour. the kinetic energy of that car is 5 × 105 j. how much energy does the same car have when it moves at 111 miles per hour? answer in units of j. 006 10.0 points an 102 kg man climbs up a 1 m high flight of stairs. the acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . w
