(a) The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by
where
and
are the initial and final angular speed of the wheel, and t the time.
In our problem, the initial angular speed is zero (the wheel starts from rest), so the angular acceleration is
(b) The wheel is moving by uniformly rotational accelerated motion, so the angle it covered after a time t is given by
where
is the initial angular speed. So, the angle covered after a time t=3.07 s is
The coefficient of static friction is 0.234.
Answer:
Explanation:
Frictional force is equal to the product of coefficient of friction and normal force acting on any object.
So here the mass of the object is given as 2 kg, so the normal force will be acting under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.
Normal force = mass * acceleration due to gravity
Normal force = 2 * 9.8 = 19.6 N.
And the frictional force is given as 4.6 N, then
Coefficient of static friction = 4.6 N / 19.6 N = 0.234
So the coefficient of static friction is 0.234.
Answer:
d = 120 [m]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. Where the energy in the final state (when the skater stops) is equal to the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work done on the skater in the initial state.
The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy. As the track is horizontal there is no unevenness, in this way, there is no potential energy.
E₁ + W₁₋₂ = E₂
where:
E₁ = mechanical energy in the initial state [J] (units of Joules)
W₁₋₂ = work done between the states 1 and 2 [J]
E₂ = mechanical energy in the final state = 0
E₁ = Ek = kinetic energy [J]
E₁ = 0.5*m*v²
where:
m = mass = 60 [kg]
v = initial velocity = 12 [m/s]
Now, the work done is given by the product of the friction force by the distance. In this case, the work is negative because the friction force is acting in opposite direction to the movement of the skater.
W₁₋₂ = -f*d
where:
f = friction force = 36 [N]
d = distance [m]
Now we have:
0.5*m*v² - (f*d) = 0
0.5*60*(12)² - (36*d) = 0
4320 = 36*d
d = 120 [m]

f=1.92 cm
