Answer:

$\tau = 60.88 N.m$

Explanation:

given,

rotational inertia, I = 474.0 kg·m²

decrease in angular velocity

ω₁ = 26.2 rad/s ω₂ = 0 rad/s

time = 204 s

torque = ?

$\tau = I \alpha$

$\alpha = \dfrac{\omega_1-\omega_2}{t}$

$\alpha = \dfrac{26.2-0}{204}$

α = 0.128 rad/s²

$\tau = I \alpha$

$\tau = 474\times 0.128$

$\tau = 60.88 N.m$

frictional torque acting by the flywheel is equal to 60.88 N.m

An ordinary workshop grindstone has a radius of 7.50 cm and rotates at 6500 rev/min. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the centripe

jonny [76]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the relationship between tangential velocity and centripetal velocity, as well as the kinematic equations of angular motion. By definition we know that the direction of centripetal acceleration is perpendicular to the direction of tangential velocity, therefore:

$a_c= \frac{v^2}{r}=r\omega^2$

Where,

V = the linear speed

r = Radius

$\omega =$ Angular speed

The angular speed is given by

$\omega =6500\frac{rev}{min}(\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev})(\frac{1 min}{60s})$

$\omega = 680.6784 rad/s.$

Replacing at our first equation we have that the centripetal acceleration would be

$a_c = r\omega^2$

$a_c = (0.0750)(680.6784)^2$

$a_c = 34 749.23 m/s^2$

To transform it into multiples of the earth's gravity which is given as $9.8m / s$ the equivalent of 1g.

$a_c =34749.23 \frac{m}{s^2} (1\frac{g}{9.8m/s^2})$

$a_c = 3545.84g$

PART B) Now the linear speed would be subject to:

$v = \omega r$

$v= (680.6784)(0.0750)$

$v=51.05 m/s$

Therefore the linear speed of a point on its edge is 51.05m/s

A student fills a tank of radius r with water to a height of h1 and pokes a small, 1.0 cm diameter hole at a distance h2 from th

Alik [6]

when a hole is made at the bottom of the container then water will flow out of it

The speed of ejected water can be calculated by help of Bernuolli's equation and Equation of continuity.

By Bernoulli's equation we can write

$Po + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 + \rho g h = Po + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 + \rho g *0$

Now by equation of continuity

$A_1v_1 = A_2v_2$

$\pi (0.2)^2 v_1 = \pi (0.01)^2 v_2$

from above equation we can say that speed at the top layer is almost negligible.

$v_1 = 0$

now again by equation of continuity

$\rho g h = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^2$

$v = \sqrt{2 g h}$

here we have

$h = h_1 - h_2$

$h = 0.50 - 0.03 = 0.47m$

now speed is given by

$v = \sqrt{2* 9.8 * 0.47}$

$v = 3.03 m/s$
