A yo-yo of mass M has an axle of radius b and a spool of radius R. Its moment of inertia can be taken to be MR2/2 and the thickn

Answer:

T = \frac{gM}{\frac{2b^2}{R^2} + 1}

Explanation:

If we ignore the thickness of the string, then the tension T of the string on the yoyo would cause a torque with a magnitude of Tb. This torque would then generate an angular acceleration according to Newton's 2nd law:

Tb = I\alpha

Tb = MR^2\alpha/2

We can substitute angular acceleration as ratio of linear acceleration and spool radius

\alpha = a/b

ThereforeTb = MR^2a/2b

T = \frac{aMR^2}{2b^2}

The system has 2 forces, gravity pulling it down and tension force upward. The net force would generate the linear acceleration a

Mg - T = ma

a = (gM - T)/M

now we can substitute for a into the tension equation

T = \frac{(gM-T)MR^2}{2b^2M}

T = \frac{gMR^2}{2b^2} - \frac{TR^2}{2b^2}

T\left(1 + \frac{R^2}{2b^2}\right) =  \frac{gMR^2}{2b^2}

T\frac{2b^2 + R^2}{2b^2} = \frac{gMR^2}{2b^2}

T = \frac{gMR^2}{2b^2 + R^2}

T = \frac{gM}{\frac{2b^2}{R^2} + 1}

Answer:

The tension in the cord is T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2}  }

Explanation:

Given:

M = mass

b = radius

R = spool of radius

The equation is:

bT=(\frac{MR^{2} }{2} )(\frac{a}{b} )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}a }{2b^{2} } (eq. 1)

The sum of forces in y:

∑Fy = Mg - T = Ma

Mg=(M+\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} }  )a\\a=\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2}  }

Replacing in eq. 1

T=\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} } (\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2} +R^{2} } )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2}  }

A 0.400-kg object is swung in a circular path and in a vertical plane on a 0.500-m-length string. If the angular speed at the bo
Talja [164]

Answer:

T = 16.72 N

Explanation:

When the object is swung in a circular path, and in a vertical plane, there are two forces external to the object acting on it at any time: the gravity (which is always downward) and the tension in the string (which always points towards the center of the circle).

At the bottom of the circle, the tension is directly upward, so these two forces, are opposite each other, and the difference between them is the centripetal force , which at this point, keeps the object swinging in a circle.

This is the point of the trajectory where T is maximum.

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law, choosing an axis vertical (y-axis) being the upward direction the positive one, as follows:

T- m*g = m*a

The acceleration, at the bottom of the circle, is only normal (as there are no forces in the horizontal direction) , and is equal to the centripetal acceleration, as follows:

ac =  v² / r = ω²*r⇒ T- m*g = m*ω²*r

Replacing by the givens, we can solve for T as follows:

T = m* (ω²*r+g) = 0.4 kg*((8.00)² rad/sec²*0.5m)+9.8 m/s²) = 16.72 N
