- What is the rotational inertia of top 8 meters of a sphere with a radius of 14 meters and a constant density of 64 kg per cubic meter about a vertical axis through the center of the object. This object is like a hemisphere but even more of the bottom is removed. Please answer in kg m².arrow_forwardJohn is pushing his daughter Rachel in a wheelbarrow when it is stopped by a brick 8.00 cm high (see the figure below). The handles make an angle of 0 = 20.0° with the ground. Due to the weight of Rachel and the wheelbarrow, a downward force of 407 N is exerted at the center of the wheel, which has a radius of 18.0 cm. Assume the brick remains fixed and does not slide along the ground. Also assume the force applied by John is directed exactly toward the center of the wheel. (Choose the positive x-axis to be pointing to the right.) & (a) What force (in N) must John apply along the handles to just start the wheel over the brick? 1690.53 X Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%.
