Answer: work done = 64,000J or 64KJ.

Explanation:

Work is said to be done if a force applied makes the object to move through a distance in the direction of the applied force. Work is the product of force and perpendicular distance in the direction of the applied force. It is represented by W, measured in Joules(J) and a scalar quantity.

Thus, work done(J)= force(N) × distance(m)

From the the question,

applied force= 1600N

distance=40m

Therefore, work= 1600 × 40

W= 64,000J

But, 1 kilojoules = 1000J

Therefore, 64,000J = 64,000 ÷ 1000

= 64KJ

Work done is 64KJ

A wheel with moment of inertia 25 kg. m2 and angular velocity 10 rad/s begins to speed up, with angular acceleration 15 rad/sec2

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

(A) Angular speed 40 rad/sec

Rotation = 50 rad

(b) 37812.5 J

Explanation:

We have given moment of inertia of the wheel $I=25kgm^2$

Initial angular velocity of the wheel $\omega _0=10rad/sec$

Angular acceleration $\alpha =15rad/sec^2$

(a) We know that $\omega =\omega _0+\alpha t$

We have given t = 2 sec

So $\omega =10+15\times 2=40rad/sec$

Now $\Theta =\omega _0t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2=10\times 2+\frac{1}{2}\times 15\times 2^2=50rad$

(b) After 3 sec $\omega =10+15\times 3=55rad/sec$

We know that kinetic energy is given by $Ke=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 25\times 55^2=37812.5J$
