A hollow sphere is rolling along a horizontal floor at 5.0 m/s when it comes to a 30o­ incline. How far up the incline does it roll before reversing direction?

Short Answer

Expert verified

It will go 4.25 m before reversing the direction.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Velocity of hollow sphere = 5 m/s

Angle of inclination = 30o

02

Explanation

Lets draw the diagram as below to understand and solve the problem

Lets assume it reaches to the height h then

From the conservation of energy

12Mv2+12IÓ¬2=Mgh

Substitute value I=23MR2andÓ¬=vR

We get ,

12Mv2+1223MR2vR2=Mgh12Mv2+13Mv2=Mgh

Cancel M and simplify

56v2=ghh=5v26g

Substitute the value to get height h,

h=5×5ms-126×9.8ms-2h=2.126m

From trigonometric ratio L=hsinθ

on substitution we get

⇒L=2.126m0.5=4.25m

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?

FIGURE CP12.89 shows a cube of mass m sliding without frictionat speed v0. It undergoes a perfectly elastic collision with the bottom tip of a rod of length d and mass M = 2m. The rod is pivoted about a frictionless axle through its center, and initially it hangs straight down and is at rest. What is the cube’s velocity— both speed and direction—after the collision?

A long, thin rod of mass M and length L is standing straight up on a table. Its lower end rotates on a frictionless pivot. A very slight push causes the rod to fall over. As it hits the table, what are

(a) the angular velocity and

(b) the speed of the tip of the rod?

Flywheels are large, massive wheels used to store energy. They can be spun up slowly, then the wheel’s energy can be released quickly to accomplish a task that demands high power. An industrial flywheel has a 1.5 m diameter and a mass of 250 kg. Its maximum angular velocity is 1200 rpm.
a. A motor spins up the flywheel with a constant torque of 50 N m. How long does it take the flywheel to reach top speed?
b. How much energy is stored in the flywheel?

c. The flywheel is disconnected from the motor and connected to a machine to which it will deliver energy. Half the energy stored in the flywheel is delivered in 2.0 s. What is the average power delivered to the machine?
d. How much torque does the flywheel exert on the machine?
