<span>Average velocity can be calculated by determining the total displacement divided by the total time of travel. The average velocity of an object does not tell us anything about what happens to it between the starting point and ending point. Average velocity is different from average speed because it considers the direction of travel and the overall change in position.</span>

Two metal disks, one with radius R1 = 2.45 cm and mass M1 = 0.900 kg and the other with radius R2 = 5.00 cm and mass M2 = 1.60 k

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

part (a) $a_1\ =\ 2.9\ kg$

Part (b) $a_2\ =\ 6.25\ kg$

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the larger disk = $M_2\ =\ 1.60\ kg$
Mass of the smaller disk = $M_1\ =\ 0.900\ kg$
Radius of the larger disk = $R_2\ =\ 5.00\ cm\ =\ 0.05\ m$
Radius of the smaller disk = $R_1\ =\ 2.45\ cm\ =\ 0.0245\ m$
Mass of the block = M = 1.60 kg

Both the disks are welded together, therefore total moment of inertia of the both disks are the summation of the individual moment of inertia of the disks.

$\therefore I\ =\ I_1\ +\ I_2\\\Rightarrow I\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}M_1R_1^2\ +\ \dfrac{1}{2}M_2R_2^2\\\Rightarrow I\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2} (0.9\times 0.0245^2\ +\ 1.60\times 0.05^2)\\\Rightarrow I\ =\ 2.27\times 10^{-3}\ kgm^2$

part (a)

Given that a block of mass m which is hanging with the smaller disk,

Let 'T' be 'a' be the tension in the string and acceleration of the block.

From the free body diagram of the smaller block,

$mg\ -\ T\ =\ ma\\\Rightarrow T\ =\ mg\ -\ ma\,\,\,\,eqn (1)$

From the pulley,

$\sum \tau\ =\ I\alpha\\\Rightarow T\times R_1\ =\ I\alpha\ =\ \dfrac{Ia}{R_1}\\\Rightarrow T\ =\ \dfrac{I\alpha}{R_1^2}\,\,\,eqn(2)$

From the equation (1) and (2),

$mg\ -\ ma\ =\ \dfrac{Ia}{R_1^2}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ \dfrac{mg}{\dfrac{I}{R_1^2}\ +\ m}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ \dfrac{1.60\times 9.81}{\dfrac{2.27\times 10^{-3}{0.0245^2}}\ +\ 1.60}\\\Rightarow a\ =\ 2.91\ m/s^2$

part (b)

Above expression for the acceleration of the block is only depended on the radius of the pulley.

Radius of the larger pulley = $R_2\ =\ 0.05\ m$

Let $a_2$ be the acceleration of the block while connecting to the larger pulley. $\therefore a\ =\ \dfrac{mg}{\dfrac{I}{R_2^2}\ +\ m}\\\Rightarrow a\ =\ \dfrac{1.60\times 9.81}{\dfrac{2.27\times 10^{-3}{0.05^2}\ +\ 1.60}}\\\Rightarow a\ =\ 6.25\ m/s^2$
