An object at a vertical elevation of 20 m and a speed of 5 m/s decreases in elevation to an elevation of 1 m. At this location,

the object has a velocity of 15 m/s. The mass of the object is 68 kg. Assuming the object is the system, determine if there is any work transfer associated with the object (there is no heat transfer). The object is solid, incompressible and its temperature does not change during the process. If there is work transfer, is work done on or by the object? Assume the acceleration of gravity g = 9.81 m/s2.

Answer with Explanation:

We know that from the principle of work and energy we have

Work done on/by a body =ΔEnergy of the body.

Now as we know that energy of a body is the sum of it's kinetic and potential energy hence we can find out the magnitude of the final and initial energies as explained under

E_{initial}=P.E+K.E\\\\E_{initail}=mgh_1+\frac{1}{2}mv_1^{2}\\\\68\times 9.81\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times 68\times (5)^{2}=14191.6Joules

Similarly the final energy is calculated to be

E_{final}=P.E+K.E\\\\E_{final}=mgh_2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^{2}\\\\68\times 9.81\times 1+\frac{1}{2}\times 68\times (15)^{2}=8317.08Joules

As we can see that the energy of the object has changed thus by work energy theorem we conclude that work transfer is associated with the object.

Part 2)

The change in the energy of the body equals 8317.08-14191.6=-5874.52Joules

Since the energy is lost by the system hence we conclude that work is done by the object.

Answer:

\omega =\frac{24}{1.14375}=20.983\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Angular momentum. If we consider a particle of mass m, with velocity v, moving under the influence of a force F. The angular  momentum about point O is defined as the “moment” of the particle’s linear momentum, L, about O. And the correct formula is:

H_o =r x mv=rxL

Applying Newton’s second law to the right hand side of the above equation, we have that r ×ma = r ×F =

MO, where MO is the moment of the force F about point O. The equation expressing the rate of change  of angular momentum is this one:

MO = H˙ O

Principle of Angular Impulse and Momentum

The equation MO = H˙ O gives us the instantaneous relation between the moment and the time rate of change of angular  momentum. Imagine now that the force considered acts on a particle between time t1 and time t2. The equation MO = H˙ O can then be integrated in time to obtain this:

\int_{t_1}^{t_2}M_O dt = \int_{t_1}^{t_2}H_O dt=H_0t2 -H_0t1

Solution to the problem

For this case we can use the principle of angular impulse and momentum that states "The mass moment of inertia of a gear about its mass center is I_o =mK^2_o =30kg(0.125m)^2 =0.46875 kgm^2".

If we analyze the staritning point we see that the initial velocity can be founded like this:

v_o =\omega r_{OIC}=\omega (0.15m)

And if we look the figure attached we can use the point A as a reference to calculate the angular impulse and momentum equation, like this:

H_Ai +\sum \int_{t_i}^{t_f} M_A dt =H_Af

0+\sum \int_{0}^{4} 20t (0.15m) dt =0.46875 \omega + 30kg[\omega(0.15m)](0.15m)

And if we integrate the left part and we simplify the right part we have

1.5(4^2)-1.5(0^2) = 0.46875\omega +0.675\omega=1.14375\omega

And if we solve for \omega we got:

\omega =\frac{24}{1.14375}=20.983\frac{rad}{s}
