8. An unpowered flywheel is slowed by a constant frictional torque. At time t = 0 it has an angular velocity of 200 rad/s. Ten s

econds later its velocity has decreased by 15%. What is its angular velocity at a) time t = 50 s and b) t = 100 s?

Answer:

a) \omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}, b) \omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The magnitude of torque is a form of moment, that is, a product of force and lever arm (distance), and force is the product of mass and acceleration for rotating systems with constant mass. That is:

\tau = F \cdot r

\tau = m\cdot a \cdot r

\tau = m \cdot \alpha \cdot r^{2}

Where \alpha is the angular acceleration, which is constant as torque is constant. Angular deceleration experimented by the unpowered flywheel is:

\alpha = \frac{170\,\frac{rad}{s} - 200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{10\,s}

\alpha = -3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Now, angular velocities of the unpowered flywheel at 50 seconds and 100 seconds are, respectively:

a) t = 50 s.

\omega = 200\,\frac{rad}{s} - \left(3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (50\,s)

\omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}

b) t = 100 s.

Given that friction is of reactive nature. Frictional torque works on the unpowered flywheel until angular velocity is reduced to zero, whose instant is:

t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s}-200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{\left(-3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)}

t = 66.667\,s

Since t > 66.667\,s, then the angular velocity is equal to zero. Therefore:

\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

1. What are the units of area under the line/curve?<br> 2. Does the area have any meaning?
TiliK225 [7]

The area under the velocity time graph is 125 m and the meaning of the area is displacement.

<h3>What is area under velocity - time graph?</h3>

The area under a velocity time graph represents the displacement of the object.

total area of the graph = A1 + A2

total area of the graph = ¹/₂ (base₁)(height₁) + ¹/₂ (base₂)(height₂)

total area of the graph = ¹/₂(4)(40) + ¹/₂(3)(30)

total area of the graph = 125 m

Thus, the area under the velocity time graph is 125 m and the meaning of the area is displacement.
