Answer:
I = 2 kgm^2
Explanation:
In order to calculate the moment of inertia of the door, about the hinges, you use the following formula:
(1)
I: moment of inertia of the door
α: angular acceleration of the door = 2.00 rad/s^2
τ: torque exerted on the door
You can calculate the torque by using the information about the Force exerted on the door, and the distance to the hinges. You use the following formula:
(2)
F: force = 5.00 N
d: distance to the hinges = 0.800 m
You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for α:
Finally, you replace the values of all parameters in the previous equation for I:
The moment of inertia of the door around the hinges is 2 kgm^2
