Four particles, each of mass, 0.20 k²µ, are placed at the vertices of a square with sides of length0.50m. The particles are connected by rods of negligible mass. This rigid body can rotate in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis A that passes through one of the particles. The body is released from rest with rod AB horizontal (Fig10-64.). (a) What is the rotational inertia of the body about axis A? (b) What is the angular speed of the body about axis A when rod AB swings through the vertical position?

Short Answer

a) Rotational inertia of body about axis A is 0.20 k²µ.m2.

b) Angular speed of body about axis A is 6.3​â¶Ä‰rad/sec.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

i) Mass of particle is0.20 k²µ

ii) Length of square is0.50″¾

02

Determining the concept

The rotational inertia of a body is the quantity that determines how much torque will be needed to produce a particular value of angular acceleration. The formula to find the rotational inertia and rotational kinetic energy are-

The moment of inertia is given as-

I=Σ³¾°ù2

The rotational kinetic energy is given as-

KE=12±õÓ¬2

where, KE is kinetic energy, I is moment of inertia, m is mass, r is radius, I is moment of inertia and isÓ¬ angular frequency.

(a) Determining the rotational inertia of the body about axis A

Distance,AD=AB=0.50 m

Distance,AC=0.502+0.502

AC=0.71m

Now, rotational inertia is as follows:

I=m(AB)2+m(AD)2+m(AC)2=0.20 k²µ(0.5″¾)2+0.20 k²µ(0.50″¾)2+0.20 k²µ(0.71″¾)2=0.20 kg.m2

Hence,rotational inertia of body about axis A is .0.20 k²µ.m2

04

(b) Determining the angular speed of the body about axis A

Rotational kinetic energy can be expressed as,

KE=12IÓ¬2

And gravitational potential energy of system of four masses is,

PE=(4m)gL

Now, according to conservation of energy,

KE=PE

12IӬ2=(4 m)gL

localid="1661002600155" 0.5×0.20 k²µm2×Ӭ2=(4×0.20 k²µ)×9.8″¾/s2×0.5 ″¾

Ó¬=6.3 r²¹»å/²õ

Hence,angular speed of body about axis A is.6.3​â¶Ä‰rad/s

Cheetahs running at top speed have been reported at an astounding114 k³¾/³ó(about71″¾i/h) by observers driving alongside the animals. Imagine trying to measure a cheetah’s speed by keeping your vehicle abreast of the animal while also glancing at your speedometer, which is registering114 k³¾/³ó. You keep the vehicle a constantfrom the cheetah, but the noise of the vehicle causes the cheetah to continuously veer away from you along a circular path of radius92″¾. Thus, you travel along a circular path of radius.100″¾ (a) What is the angular speed of you and the cheetah around the circular paths? (b) What is the linear speed of the cheetah along its path? (If you did not account for the circular motion, you would conclude erroneously that the cheetah’s speed is114 k³¾/³ó, and that type of error was apparently made in the published reports.)

In Fig.10−41 , block 1has mass m1=460 g, block 2has massm2=500 g , and the pulley, which is mounted on a horizontal axle with negligible friction, has radius R=5.00 c³¾. When released from rest, block 2 falls75.0 c³¾ in5.00 s without the cord slipping on the pulley. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks? What are (b) tensionT2 and (c) tensionT1 ? (d) What is the magnitude of the pulley’s angular acceleration? (e) What is its rotational inertia?

(c) If the turntable had undergone constant angular acceleration from rest in0.25s, what is the least coefficient to avoid slippage?

A car starts from rest and moves around a circular track of radius30.0M. Its speed increases at the constant rate of 0.500M/S2. (a) What is the magnitude of its net linear acceleration 15.0slater? (b) What angle does this net acceleration vector make with the car’s velocity at this time?
