Answer:
Friction = 5 N
Explanation:
As we know that block is moving at constant speed
So the acceleration of the block is zero
So we will have
for net force to be zero
Force exerted on the object by external system must be counter balanced by the force of friction
So we have
so we have
There are mistakes in the question.The correct question is here
A 2.0 kg, 20-cm-diameter turntable rotates at 100 rpm on frictionless bearings. Two 500 g blocks fall from above, hit the turntable simultaneously at opposite ends of a diameter, and stick. What is the turntable’s angular velocity, in rpm, just after this event?
Answer:
w=50 rpm
Explanation:
Given data
The mass turntable M=2kg
Diameter of the turntable d=20 cm=0.2 m
Angular velocity ω=100 rpm= 100×(2π/60) =10.47 rad/s
Two blocks Mass m=500 g=0.5 kg
To find
Turntable angular velocity
Solution
We can find the angular velocity of the turntable as follow
Lets consider turntable to be disk shape and the blocks to be small as compared to turntable
where I is moment of inertia
