A grinding wheel is a uniform cylinder with a radius of 8.50 cm and a mass of 0.380 kg. Calculate (a) its moment of inertia about its center and (b) the applied torque needed to accelerate it from rest to 1750 rpm in 5.00 s. Take into account a frictional torque that has been measured to slow down the wheel from 1500 rpm to rest in 55.0 s.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The applied torque on the wheel is \(5.41 \times {10^{ - 2}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}\).

Step by step solution

01

Concept

Torque is the product of the moment of inertia and the angular acceleration. For this problem, the net torque equals the sum of the applied torque and the frictional torque.

02

Given data

The total mass of the cylindrical wheel is \(m = 0.380\;{\rm{kg}}\).

The radius of the cylindrical wheel is \(r = 8.50\;{\rm{cm}} = 0.085\;{\rm{m}}\).

The initial angular velocity of the wheel is \({\omega _1} = 0\).

The final angular velocity of the wheel is \({\omega _2} = 1750\;{\rm{rpm}} = \left( {\frac{{1750 \times 2\pi }}{{60}}} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}}\).

The time for the rotation of the wheel is \(t = 5.00\;s\).

Now, the frictional torque takes \(t' = 55.0\;{\rm{s}}\) to come to rest from the initial angular velocity of\({\omega _3} = 1500\;{\rm{rpm}} = \left( {\frac{{1500 \times 2\pi }}{{60}}} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}}\).

Let \(\tau \) be the applied torque on the wheel.

03

Calculation of part (a)

Part (a)

The moment of inertia of the cylindrical wheel is

\(\begin{align}I &= \frac{1}{2}m{r^2}\\ &= \frac{1}{2} \times \left( {0.380\;{\rm{kg}}} \right) \times {\left( {0.085\;{\rm{m}}} \right)^2}\\ &= 1.37 \times {10^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{kg}} \cdot {{\rm{m}}^{\rm{2}}}\end{align}\).

Hence, the moment of inertia of the wheel is \(1.37 \times {10^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{kg}} \cdot {{\rm{m}}^{\rm{2}}}\).

04

Calculation of part (b)

Part (b)

The frictional torque on the wheel is \({\tau _{\rm{f}}} = I{\alpha _{\rm{f}}}\).

Here, \({\alpha _{\rm{f}}}\) is the angular acceleration due to the frictional torque, and the value of \({\alpha _{\rm{f}}}\) is

\(\begin{align}{\alpha _{\rm{f}}} &= \frac{{0 - {\omega _3}}}{{t'}}\\ &= \frac{{ - {\omega _3}}}{{t'}}\end{align}\).

Therefore, the frictional torque on the wheel is

\(\begin{align}{\tau _{\rm{f}}} &= - I\frac{{{\omega _3}}}{{t'}}\\ &= - \left( {1.37 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{kg}} \cdot {{\rm{m}}^{\rm{2}}}} \right) \times \frac{{\left( {\frac{{1500 \times 2\pi }}{{60}}} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}}}}{{55.0\;{\rm{s}}}}\\ &= - 3.91 \times {10^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}\end{align}\).

The net angular acceleration of the wheel is \({\alpha _{{\rm{net}}}} = \frac{{{\omega _2} - {\omega _1}}}{t}\).

Now, the net torque on the wheel is

\(\begin{align}{\tau _{{\rm{net}}}} &= I{\alpha _{{\rm{net}}}}\\ &= \left( {1.37 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{kg}} \cdot {{\rm{m}}^{\rm{2}}}} \right) \times \frac{{\left( {\frac{{1750 \times 2\pi }}{{60}}} \right)\;{\rm{rad/s}} - 0}}{{5.0\;{\rm{s}}}}\\ &= 50.19 \times {10^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}\end{align}\)

Now,

\(\begin{align}{\tau _{{\rm{net}}}} &= \tau + {\tau _{\rm{f}}}\\\tau &= {\tau _{{\rm{net}}}} - {\tau _{\rm{f}}}\\ &= \left( {50.19 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}} \right) - \left( { - 3.91 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}} \right)\\ &= 5.41 \times {10^{ - 2}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}\end{align}\).

Hence, the applied torque on the wheel is \(5.41 \times {10^{ - 2}}\;{\rm{N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}\).

A potter is shaping a bowl on a potter's wheel rotating at a constant angular velocity of 1.6 rev/s (Fig. 8鈥48). The frictional force between her hands and the clay is 1.5 N. (a) How large is her torque on the wheel if the diameter of the bowl is 9.0 cm? (b) How long would it take for the potter's wheel to stop if the only torque acting on it is due to the potter's hands? The moment of inertia of the wheel and the bowl is \(0.11\;{\rm{kg}} \cdot {{\rm{m}}^{\rm{2}}}\).

If\(F = 285\;{\rm{N}}\)how long will it take the tug to rotate the asteroid鈥檚 axis of rotation through an angle of 5.0掳 by this method?
