Answer:

Final angular velocity is 35rpm

Explanation:

Angular velocity is given by the equation:

I1w1i + I2w2i = I1w1f -I2w2f

But the two disks are identical, so Ii =I2

wf can be calculated using

wf = w1i - w2i/2

Given: w1i =50rpm w2i= 30rpm

wf= (50 + 20) / 2

wf= 70/2 = 35rpm

A wheel with radius 36 cm is rotating at a rate of 19 rev/s.(a) What is the angular speed in radians per second? rad/s(b) In a t
Sedaia [141]

(a) 119.3 rad/s

The angular speed of the wheel is

\omega= 19 rev/s

we need to convert it into radiands per second. We know that

1 rev = 2 \pi rad

Therefore, we just need to multiply the angular speed of the wheel by this factor, to get the angular speed in rad/s:

\omega = 19 rev/s \cdot (2\pi rad/rev))=119.3 rad/s

(b) 596.5 rad

The angular displacement of the wheel in a time interval t is given by

\theta= \omega t

where

\omega=119.3 rad

and

t = 5 s is the time interval

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find

\theta=(119.3 rad/s)(5 s)=596.5 rad

(c) 127.3 rad/s

At t=10 s, the angular speed begins to increase with an angular acceleration of

\alpha = 1.6 rad/s^2

So the final angular speed will be given by

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha \Delta t

where

\omega_i = 119.3 rad/s is the initial angular speed

\alpha = 1.6 rad/s^2 is the angular acceleration

\Delta t = 15 s - 10 s = 5 s is the time interval

Solving the equation,

\omega_f = (119.3 rad/s) + (1.6 rad/s^2)(5 s)=127.3 rad/s

(d) 616.5 rad

The angle through which the wheel has rotated during this time interval is given by

\theta = \omega_i \Delta t + \frac{1}{2} \alpha (\Delta t)^2

Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find

\theta = (119.3 rad/s)(5 s) + \frac{1}{2} (1.6 rad/s^2) (5 s)^2=616.5 rad

(e) 222 m

The instantaneous speed of the center of the wheel is given by

v_{CM} = \omega R (1)

where

\omega is the average angular velocity of the wheel during the time t=10 s and t=15 s, and it is given by

\omega=\frac{\omega_i + \omega_f}{2}=\frac{127.3 rad/s+119.3 rad/s}{2}=123.3 rad/s

and

R = 36 cm = 0.36 m is the radius of the wheel

Substituting into (1),

v_{CM}=(123.3 rad/s)(0.36 m)=44.4 m/s

And so the displacement of the center of the wheel will be

d=v_{CM} t = (44.4 m/s)(5 s)=222 m

During a storm, a tree limb breaks off and comes to rest across a barbed wire fence at a point that is not in the middle between
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

a. 12.12°

b. 412.04 N

Explanation:

Along vertical axis, the equation can be written as

T_1 sin14 + T_2sinA = mg

T_2sinA = mg - T_1sin12.5           ....................... (a)

Along horizontal axis, the equation can be written as

T_2×cosA = T_1×cos12.5    ......................... (b)

(a)/(b) given us

Tan A = (mg - T_1sin12.5) / T_1 cos12.5

 = (176 - 413sin12.5) / 413×cos12.5

A = 12.12 °

(b) T2 cosA = T1 cos12.5

T2 = 413cos12.5/cos12.12

= 412.04 N

A 15-lb block B starts from rest and slides on the 25-lb wedge A, which is supported by a horizontal surface. Neglecting frictio
xxTIMURxx [149]

The angle of the wedge is 30°.

Answer:

5.88 ft/s

Explanation:

a) The block will slide down due to it's weight.

initial velocity u= 0

final velocity, v

acceleration, a = g sin 30° = 32 ft/s²× sin 30° = 16 ft/s²

Sliding displacement, s = 3ft

Use third equation of motion:

v^2-u^2 = 2as

substitute the values and solve for v

v^2-0 = 2\times 16 \times 3 =96 ft^2/s^2\\v = 9.8 ft/s

b) Use conservation of momentum:

Initial momentum of the system  = 0

final momentum = (15) ( 9.8)+ (25)(v')

v' = 5.88 ft/s
