Answer:

a) Centripetal force is 482.79 N towards center.

b) Centripetal force is 17.37 N towards center.

c) First centripetal force is 482.79 N which is greater than weight of 215.82 N

   First centripetal force is 17.37 N which is less than weight of 215.82 N

Explanation:

Centripetal force is given by the expression, F = mrω², m is the mass, r is the radius and ω is the angular velocity,

a) Mass, m = 22 kg

   Radius, r = 1.25 m

   Angular speed , ω = 40 rev /min = 4.19 rad/s

  Substituting

                     F = mrω²

                    F = 22 x 1.25 x 4.19² = 482.79 N

   Centripetal force is 482.79 N towards center.

b) Mass, m = 22 kg

   Radius, r = 8 m

   Angular speed , ω = 3 rev /min = 0.314 rad/s

  Substituting

                     F = mrω²

                    F = 22 x 8 x 0.314² = 17.37 N

   Centripetal force is 17.37 N towards center.

c) Weight = mg = 22 x 9.81 = 215.82 N

   First centripetal force is 482.79 N which is greater than weight of 215.82 N

   First centripetal force is 17.37 N which is less than weight of 215.82 N

A thin spherical shell has a radius of 0.70 m. An applied torque of 860 N m gives the shell an angular acceleration of 4.70 rad/
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

I=182.97\ kg-m^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of a spherical shell, r = 0.7 m

Torque acting on the shell, \tau=860\ N

Angular acceleration of the shell, \alpha =4.7\ m/s^2

We need to find the rotational inertia of the shell about the axis of rotation. The relation between the torque and the angular acceleration is given by :

\tau=I\alpha

I is the rotational inertia of the shell

I=\dfrac{\tau}{\alpha }\\\\I=\dfrac{860}{4.7}\\\\I=182.97\ kg-m^2

So, the rotational inertia of the shell is 182.97\ kg-m^2.
