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

Your code returns a number of 99.123456789 +0.00455679 for your calculation. How should you report it in your lab write-up?
Aneli [31]

Answer: Your code returns a number of 99.123456789 +0.00455679

Ok, you must see where the error starts to affect your number.

In this case, is in the third decimal.

So you will write 99.123 +- 0.004 da da da.

But you must round your results. In the number you can see that after the 3 comes a 4, so the 3 stays as it is.

in the error, after the 4 comes a 5, so it rounds up.

So the final presentation will be 99.123 +- 0.005

you are discarding all the other decimals because the error "domains" them.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20.00 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, how long is the ball in th
algol [13]

Answer:

1) The greatest height attained by the ball equals 20.387 meters.

2) The time it takes for the ball to reach 15 meters approximately equals 1 second.

Explanation:

The greatest height will be attained when the ball stop's in the air and starts falling back to the earth.

thus using third equation of kinematics we obtain the height attained as

v^2=u^2+2as

where

'v' is the final speed of the ball

'u' is the initial speed of the ball

'a' is the acceleration that the ball is under which in this case equals 9.81 m/s^{2}

's' is the distance it covers

Thus for maximum height applying the values in the equation we get

0=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times h\\\\\therefore h=\frac{20^{2}}{2\times 9.81}=20.387meters

Using the same equation we can find the speed of the ball when it reaches 15 meters of height as  

v^2=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times 15\\\\v^{2}=105.7\\\\\therefore v=10.28m/s

the time it takes to reduce the velocity to this value can be found by first equation of kinematics as

v=u+at\\\\t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\frac{10.28-20}{-9.81}=0.991seconds\approx 1second

Imagine two billiard balls on a pool table. Ball A has a mass of 7 kilograms and ball B has a mass of 2 kilograms. The initial v
wlad13 [49]
1) In a perfectly inelastic collision, the two balls stick together after the collision. In this type of collision, the total kinetic energy of the system is not conserved, while the total momentum is conserved.
If we callv_f the final velocity of the two balls that stick together, the conservation of the total momentum before and after the collision can be written as
m_a v_{Ai} + m_b v_{Bi} = (m_A+m_B)v_f (1)
where
m_A=7 kg is the mass of ball A
m_B=2 kg is the mass of ball B
v_{Ai}=6 m/s is the initial velocity of ball A
v_{Bi}=-12 m/s is the initial velocity of ball B (taken with a negative sign, since it goes in the opposite direction of ball A)

If we solve (1) to find v_f, we find that the final velocity of the balls is
v_f= \frac{m_Av_{Ai}+m_Bv_{Bi}}{m_A+m_B}= \frac{(7\cdot 6)+(2 \cdot (- 12))}{7+2}= \frac{18}{9}=2 m/s
and the positive sign means the two balls are going to the right.


2) I assume here we are talking about an elastic collision. In this case, both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved:
m_A v_{Ai}+m_B v_{Bi} = m_A v_{fA} + m_B v_{fB}
\frac{1}{2}m_A v_{Ai}^2+ \frac{1}{2}m_B v_{Bi}^2= \frac{1}{2}m_Av_{fA}^2+ \frac{1}{2}m_B v_{fB}^2
where
v_{fA} is the final velocity of ball A
v_{fB} is the final velocity of ball B

If we solve simultaneously the two equations, we find:
v_{fA}= \frac{v_{Ai}(m_A-m_B)+2m_Bv_{Bi}}{m_A+m_B} = \frac{(6)(7-2)+2(2)(-12)}{7+2}=-2 m/s
v_{fB}= \frac{v_{Bi}(m_B-m_A)+2m_Av_{Ai}}{m_A+m_B} = \frac{(-12)(2-7)+2(7)(6)}{7+2}= \frac{144}{9}=16 m/s
So, after the collision, ball A moves to the left with velocity v=-2 m/s and ball B moves to the right with velocity v=16 m/s.

3) The total momentum before and after the collision is conserved.
In fact, the total momentum before the collision is:
p_i = m_A v_{A} + m_B v_{fB} = (7\cdot 6)+(2 \cdot (-12))=42-24=18 m/s
and the total momentum after the collision is:
p_f = m_A v_{A} + m_B v_{fB} = (7\cdot (-2))+(2 \cdot 16)=-14+32=18 m/s

If the man pushes with a force of 2000N and friction is 500N, what is the resultant force?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the force of 2000 N is directed towards the right and the friction is directed towards the left, the 2000 N force is positive and the other is negative. To find the resultant force:

2000 - 500 = 1500 N to the right
