A torque of 35.6 N · m is applied to an initially motionless wheel which rotates around a fixed axis. This torque is the result

of a directed force combined with a friction force. As a result of the applied torque the angular speed of the wheel increases from 0 to 10.1 rad/s. After 5.90 s the directed force is removed, and the wheel comes to rest 59.0 s later. (a) What is the wheel's moment of inertia (in kg · m2)? kg · m2 (b) What is the magnitude of the torque caused by friction (in N · m)? N · m (c) From the time the directed force is initially applied, how many revolutions does the wheel go through? revolutions

(a) 20.8 kg m^2

First of all, we can find the angular acceleration of the wheel when both the directed force and the friction force are acting on it:

\alpha=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}

where

\omega_f = 10.1 rad/s is the final angular velocity

\omega_i=0 is the initial angular velocity

t = 5.90 s is the time taken

Substituting,

\alpha=\frac{10.1 rad/s-0}{5.90 s}=1.71 rad/s^2

Now we can find the moment of inertia of the wheel by using the equivalent of Newton's second law for rotational motions:

\tau = I\alpha (1)

where

\tau=35.6 Nm is the torque applied

I is the moment of inertia

\alpha=1.71 rad/s^2 is the angular acceleration

Solving the equation for I,

I=\frac{\tau}{\alpha}=\frac{35.6 Nm}{1.71 rad/s^2}=20.8 kg m^2

(b) -3.5 Nm

In the second part, the directed force is removed, and only the friction force acts on the wheel. The wheel comes to rest after t=59.0 s, so the angular acceleration in this part is

\alpha=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}=\frac{0-(10.1 rad/s)}{59.0 s}=-0.17 rad/s^2

And it is negative since it is a deceleration. The moment of inertia of the wheel has not changed, so we can still use eq.(1) to find the torque caused by the friction only:

\tau=I \alpha=(20.8 kg m^2)(-0.17 rad/s^2)=-3.5 Nm

(c) 52.5 revolutions

The total angular displacement covered by the wheel in the first part of the motion is given by:

\omega_f^2 - \omega_i^2 = 2 \alpha_1 \theta_1

where

\omega_f = 10.1 rad/s\\\omega_i = 0\\\alpha_1 = 1.71 rad/s^2

Solving for \theta_1,

\theta_1 = \frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\alpha_1}=\frac{(10.1 rad/s)^2-0}{2(1.71 rad/s^2)}=29.8 rad

The total angular displacement covered by the wheel in the second part of the motion is given by:

\omega_f^2 - \omega_i^2 = 2 \alpha_2 \theta_2

where

\omega_f = 0 rad/s\\\omega_i = 10.1 rad/s\\\alpha_2 = -0.17 rad/s^2

Solving for \theta_2,

\theta_2 = \frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\alpha_2}=\frac{0-(10.1 rad/s)^2}{2(-0.17 rad/s^2)}=300.0 rad

So the total angular displacement in radians is

\theta=\theta_1+\theta_2=29.8 rad+300.0 rad=329.8 rad

And since 1 rev = 2\pi rad

the angle convered in revolutions is

\theta=\frac{329.8 rad}{2\pi rad/rev}=52.5 rev

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 10N

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sketch of the two cases has been attached to this response.

<em>Case 1: The box is pushed by a horizontal force F making it to move with constant velocity.</em>

In this case, a frictional force F_{r} is opposing the movement of the box. As shown in the diagram, it can be deduced from Newton's law of motion that;

∑F = ma    -------------------(i)

Where;

∑F = effective force acting on the object (box)

m = mass of the object

a = acceleration of the object

∑F = F -  F_{r}

m = 50kg

a = 0   [At constant velocity, acceleration is zero]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

F -  F_{r} = m x a

F -  F_{r} = 50 x 0

F -  F_{r} = 0

F =  F_{r}            -------------------(ii)

<em>Case 2: The box is pushed by a horizontal force 1.5F making it to move with a constant velocity of 0.1m/s²</em>

In this case, the same frictional force F_{r} is opposing the movement of the box.

∑F = 1.5F -  F_{r}

m = 50kg

a =  0.1m/s²

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

1.5F -  F_{r} = m x a

1.5F -  F_{r} = 50 x 0.1

1.5F -  F_{r} = 5            ---------------------(iii)

<em>Substitute </em>F_{r}<em> = F from equation (ii) into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

1.5F - F = 5            

0.5F = 5            

F = 5 / 0.5

F = 10N

Therefore, the value of F is 10N

In a third class lever, the distance from the effort to the fulcrum is ____________ the distance from the load/resistance to the
padilas [110]
The complete sentence is:
In a third class lever, the distance from the effort to the fulcrum is SMALLER the distance from the load/resistance to the fulcrum.
In fact, in a third class lever, the fulcrum is on one side of the effort and the load/resistance is on the other side, so the effort is located somewhere between the two of them. This means that the distance effort-fulcrum is smaller than the distance load-fulcrum.

True/False: If an object stays still, but the observer moves, the Doppler Effect is still observered
Vladimir79 [104]

Well, Harry, what you said is not necessarily true the way you said it. 
But we know what you mean, and what you meant to say is true.

The Doppler effect is observed if there is relative radial motion
between an object and an observer <em><u>AND</u></em> if the object happens
to be putting out sound or light in the observer's direction.
