Answer:
c. V = 2 m/s
Explanation:
Using the conservation of energy:
so:
Mgh =
where M is the mass, g the gravity, h the altitude, I the moment of inertia of the pulley, W the angular velocity of the pulley and V the velocity of the mass.
Also we know that:
V = WR
Where R is the radius of the disk, so:
W = V/R
Also, the moment of inertia of the disk is equal to:
I =
I =
I = 10 kg*m^2
so, we can write the initial equation as:
Mgh =
Replacing the data:
(5kg)(9.8)(0.3m) =
solving for V:
(5kg)(9.8)(0.3m) =
V = 2 m/s
