An irregular object of mass 3 kg rotates about an axis, about which it has a radius of gyration of 0.2 m, with an angular accele
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the applied torque is 6.0\times10^{-2}\ N-m

(e) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of object = 3 kg

Radius of gyration = 0.2 m

Angular acceleration = 0.5 rad/s²

We need to calculate the applied torque

Using formula of torque

\tau=I\times\alpha

Here, I = mk²

\tau=mk^2\times\alpha

Put the value into the formula

\tau=3\times(0.2)^2\times0.5

\tau=0.06\ N-m

\tau=6.0\times10^{-2}\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the applied torque is 6.0\times10^{-2}\ N-m
