A wheel initially spinning at wo = 50.0 rad/s comes to a halt in 20.0 seconds. Determine the constant angular acceleration and t

svetlana [45]

Answer:

(I). The angular acceleration and number of revolution are -2.5 rad/s² and 500 rad.

(II). The torque is 84.87 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial spinning = 50.0 rad/s

Time = 20.0

Distance = 2.5 m

Mass of pole = 4 kg

Angle = 60°

We need to calculate the angular acceleration

Using formula of angular velocity

$\omega=-\alpha t$

$\alpha=-\dfrac{\omega}{t}$

$\alpha=-\dfrac{50.0}{20.0}$

$\alpha=-2.5\ rad/s^2$

The angular acceleration is -2.5 rad/s²

We need to calculate the number of revolution

Using angular equation of motion

$\theta=\omega_{0}t+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t$

Put the value into the formula

$\theta=50\times20-\dfrac{1}{2}\times2.5\times20^2$

$\theta=500\ rad$

The number of revolution is 500 rad.

(II). We need to calculate the torque

Using formula of torque

$\vec{\tau}=\vec{r}\times\vec{f}$

$\tau=r\times f\sin\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$\tau=2.5\times4\times 9.8\sin60$

$\tau=84.87\ N-m$

Hence, (I). The angular acceleration and number of revolution are -2.5 rad/s² and 500 rad.

(II). The torque is 84.87 N-m.
