A uniform cylindrical grindstone has a mass of 10 kg and a radius of 12 cm. (a) What is the rotational kinetic energy of the gri
1 answer:
Answer:
a) KE = 888.26J
b) N = 294.5 turns
Explanation:
For the kinetic energy:
The inertia is:
So, the kinetic energy will be:
Now, friction force is:
Ff = μ*N = 0.80*5N = 4N
The energy balance would be:
Kf - Ko = Wf where Kf=0; Ko = 888.26J; and Wf is the work done by friction force.
Wf = -Ff*d = -Ff*N*2*π*R where N is the amount of turns it gives.
Replacing these values into the energy balance:
0-888.26=-4*N*2*π*0.12
-888.26=-0.96*π*N
N=294.5 turns

Answer:
4.15 m/s
Explanation:
As the total energy must be conserved (neglecting air resistance) the change in gravitational potential energy, must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:
ΔE = ΔK + ΔU =0
If we take as a zero reference level for the gravitational potential energy, the height of the swing seat above the ground, (which is equal to 0.21 m), we can find the initial gravitational energy, considering the height of the point where the seat is released, regarding this point:
h₀ = 1.09 m -0.21 m = 0.88 m
⇒ U₀ = m*g*h₀ = 400 N*0.88 m = 352 J
As Uf = 0, ΔU = Uf -U₀ = -352 J
As the swing starts from rest, K₀=0, so we can say:
ΔK = Kf = (1)
As ΔK = -ΔU ⇒ ΔK = 352 J (2)
From (1) and (2) we can solve for vf, as follows:
So, when the swing passes through its lowest position, Betty moves at 4.15 m/s.
