A disk, with a radius of0.25 m , is to be rotated like a merrygo-round through , starting from rest, gaining angular speed at the constant rate α1through the first400 rad and then losing angular speed at the constant rate-α1 until it is again at rest. The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of any portion of the disk is not to exceed400 ms2 .

(a) What is the least time required for the rotation?

(b) What is the corresponding value ofα1 ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The least time required for rotation t is 40 s.

b) The corresponding value of α1 is α1,2.0rads2 .

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the given information

  1. The acceleration a is 400ms2.
  2. The radius r isr=0.25 m
  3. The angular displacement is, θ=400 rad.
02

Concept and Formula used

By usingtheformula for angular velocity and applying kinematic equation considering first half of the motion, we can find the least time required for rotation and corresponding value of α1. The formula are given below.

  1. Angular velocity isÓ¬max=ar
  2. The kinematic equation for θ isθ-θ0=12Ӭ0+Ӭt
  3. The kinematic equation forӬisӬ=Ӭ0+α1t

(a) Calculation for the least time required for the rotation

The upper limit for centripetal acceleration places an upper limit of the spin by considering a point at the rim. Thus,

Ó¬max=ar

Substitute the all the value in the above equation.

Ӭmax=400ms20.25 m=40rads

Now, by applying kinematic equation tothefirst half of the motion, we get

θ-θ0=12Ӭ0+Ӭt

Substitute the all the value in the above equation.

400 rad=120+40radstt=400 rad×240rads=20 s

The second half of the motion takes the same amount of time.

Hence, the total time is 40 s.

Step 3: (b) Calculation for the corresponding value of α1

Considering the first half of the motion and applying kinematic equation, we get

Ӭ=Ӭ0+α1tα1=Ӭ-Ӭ0t

Substitute the all the value in the above equation.

α1=40rads20 s=2.0 rads2

Hence the value of α1 is,2.0rads2 .

If a 32.0Nmtorque on a wheel causes angular acceleration 25.0rad/s2, what is the wheel’s rotational inertia?

Beverage engineering. The pull tab was a major advance in the engineering design of beverage containers. The tab pivots on a central bolt in the can’s top. When you pull upward on one end of the tab, the other end presses downward on a portion of the can’s top that has been scored. If you pull upward with a10 N force, approximately what is the magnitude of the force applied to the scored section? (You will need to examine a can with a pull tab.)

In Fig.10-55, a wheel of radius 0.20mis mounted on a frictionless horizontal axle. A massless cord is wrapped around the wheel and attached to a2.0Kgbox that slides on a frictionless surface inclined at angle θ=20°with the horizontal. The box accelerates down the surface at2.0ms2. What is the rotational inertia of the wheel about the axle?

Figure 10-36shows an arrangement of 15identical disks that have been glued together in a rod-like shape of length L = 1.0000M and (total) massM = 100.0mg. The disks are uniform, and the disk arrangement can rotate about a perpendicular axis through its central disk at point O . (a) What is the rotational inertia of the arrangement about that axis? (b) If we approximated the arrangement as being a uniform rod of mass Mand length L , what percentage error would we make in using the formula in Table 10-2eto calculate the rotational inertia?
