A physics student of mass 51.0 kg is standing at the edge of the flat roof of a building, 12.0 m above the sidewalk. An unfriend

ly dog is running across the roof toward her. Next to her is a large wheel mounted on a horizontal axle at its center. The wheel, used to lift objects from the ground to the roof, has a light crank attached to it and a light rope wrapped around it; the free end of the rope hangs over the edge of the roof. The student grabs the end of the rope and steps off the roof.
a. If the wheel has radius 0.300 m and a moment of inertia of 9.60 kg ⋅m^2 for rotation about the axle, how long does it take her to reach the sidewalk?
b. How fast will she be moving just before she lands?

Answer:

Explanation:

The wheel and falling student will have common acceleration .

For rotational motion of wheel

Tx r = I α , T is tension in the crank , α is angular acceleration of wheel  , I is moment of inertia , r is radius of the wheel.

= I a / r

T = I a / r²

For motion of student

Mg - T = Ma , M is mass of the wheel.

Mg - I a / r²  = Ma

Mg = Ma +I a / r²

Mg = (M +I  / r²)a

a = Mg / (M +I  / r²)

= 51 x 9.8 / ( 51 + 9.6 / .3² )

499.8 / (51+ 106.67 )

= 499.8 / 157.67

= 3.17 m / s².

If time t is taken to  fall by 12 m

12 = 1/2 a t²

24 / a = t²

24 / 3.17 =t²

t²= 7.57

t = 2.75 s

velocity to reach sidewalk

v = u + at

= 3.17  x 2.75

= 8.72 m / s

Answer:

The maximum speed that the truck can have and still be stopped by the 100m road is the speed that it can go and be stopped at exactly 100m. Since there is no friction, this problem is similar to a projectile problem. You can think of the problem as being a ball tossed into the air except here you know the highest point and you are looking for the initial velocity needed to reach that point. Also, in this problem, because there is an incline, the value of the acceleration due to gravity is not simply g; it is the component of gravity acting parallel to the incline. Since we are working parallel to the plane, also keep in mind that the highest point is given in the problem as 100m. Solving for the initial velocity needed to have the truck stop after 100m, you should find that the maximum velocity the truck can have and be stopped by the road is 18.5 m/s.
