A Find the magnitude of the angular momentum of the second hand on a clock about an axis through the center of the clock face. The clock hand has a length of 15.0 cm and a mass of 6.00 g. Take the second hand to be a slender rod rotating with constant angular velocity about one end. Express your answer in kilogram-meters squared per second.

L = 1.41 x 10⁻⁵ kg.m²/s

Explanation:

First, we need to find the linear speed of the second hand of the clock. Since, we know that second hand completes one revolution in 60 seconds. Therefore, its angular velocity will be:

ω = (1 rev/60 s)(2π rad/ 1 rev)

ω = 0.105 rad/s

Now, for linear speed we use formula:

v = rω

where,

v = linear speed = ?

r = radius of circle = length of hand = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Therefore,

v = (0.15 m)(0.105 rad/s)

v = 0.016 m/s

Now, to find the angular momentum of second hand, we use the following formula:

L = m v r

where,

L = Angular Momentum of Second-Hand = ?

m = mass of second-hand = 6 g = 0.006 kg

Therefore,

L = (0.006 kg)(0.016 m/s)(0.15 m)

L = 1.41 x 10⁻⁵ kg.m²/s

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
