What is the moment of inertia I of an object that rotates at 13.0 rev/min13.0 rev/min about an axis and has a rotational kinetic energy of 16.0 J?

The moment of inertia of the object is 17.276 kilogram-square meters.

Explanation:

According to the statement, we find that object has rotation and no translation. From Rotation Physics we get that rotational kinetic energy (), measured in joules, is represented by the following formula:

(Eq. 1)

Where:

- Moment of inertia with respect to center of mass, measured in kilogram-square meters.

- Angular speed, measured in radians per second.

Now we clear the moment of inertia:

If we know that and , then the moment of inertia of the object is:

The moment of inertia of the object is 17.276 kilogram-square meters.

the best answer for these questions would be:

1.            c. is smaller

2.            d) concrete operational

3.            b) interaction with the environment – the children interact with their environment can them learn more.

4.            a) parents who reason openly with children can limit a child’s cognitive ability.
