The three 200g masses in FIGURE rigid rods.

a. What is the triangle's moment of inertia about the axis through the

b. What is the triangle's kinetic60°40cm energy if it rotates about the axis

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. The moment of inertia of the triangle is0.0320kgm

b. The rotational kinetic energy is15.8J

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

The triangle is a rigid body rotating about an axis through the center.

Each 200 g mass is a distance away from the axis of rotation, where r is given by

0.20mr=cos30°r=0.20mcos30°=0.2309m

02

Part(a)

The moment of inertia of the triangle is

.I=3×mr2=3(0.200kg)(0.2309m)2=0.0320kgm

03

Part (b)

The frequency of rotation is given as 5.0 revolutions per s or10Ï€rad/s .

The rotational kinetic energy is

Krot.=12IÓ¬2=120.0320kgm2(10.0Ï€rad/s)2=15.8J

A rod of length L and mass M has a nonuniform mass distribution. The linear mass density (mass per length) is λ= cx2, where x is measured from the center of the rod and c is a constant.

a. What are the units of c?
b. Find an expression for c in terms of L and M.
c. Find an expression in terms of L and M for the moment of inertia of the rod for rotation about an axis through the center.

The sphere of mass M and radius R in FIGURE P12.76 is rigidly attached to a thin rod of radius r that passes through the sphere at distance 12 R from the center. A string wrapped around the rod pulls with tension T. Find an expression for the sphere’s angular acceleration. The rod’s moment of inertia is negligible.

The 20-cm-diameter disk in FIGURE EX12.20 can rotate on an axle through its center. What is the net torque about the axle?

What are the magnitude and direction of the angular momentum relative to the origin of the particle

Blocks of mass m1 and m2 are connected by a massless string that passes over the pulley in Figure P12.65. The pulley turns on frictionless bearings. Mass m1 slides on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Mass m2 is released while the blocks are at rest.
a. Assume the pulley is massless. Find the acceleration of m1 and the tension in the string. This is a Chapter 7 review problem.
b. Suppose the pulley has mass mp and radius R. Find the acceleration of m1 and the tensions in the upper and lower portions of the string. Verify that your answers agree with part a if you set mp = 0.
