Question

An energetic golden hamster is running flat out at a constant speed on its frictionless exercise wheel. If the hamster is considered part of the exercise wheel system, how much work is being done on the hamster wheel system

Answer 1

Answer:

The Hamster in a friction less exercise can move as fast as 10m/s at a constant speed  for wheel system

Explanation:

If the Energetic hamster keeps running faster, with less friction for a wheel system, there would be no limit for the hamster, until it starts approaching a light speed. A torque is not applied by The hamster to the wheel to move it, because the torque its self is a force, the torque is not a force that is stored up, it’s the angular velocity that is stored  

The relationship between a linear velocity and angular velocity is stated below

V= r w

If the hamster can move its leg in a fast way he can get to 10 m/s for a wheel system, finally, the hamster do nothing more than to so in the wheel at a speed that is constant.

Furthermore, the initial torque that is provided by the hamster deceases, then when the speed increases, the hamster will move faster as it can.
