Two metal disks, one with radius R1=2.50鈥夆赌cmand mass M1=0.80鈥夆赌kgand the other with radius R2=5.00鈥夆赌cmand mass M2=1.60鈥夆赌kg,are welded together and mounted on a frictionless axis through their common center (Fig. P9.77). (a) What is the total moment of inertia of the two disks? (b) A light string is wrapped around the edge of the smaller disk, and a 1.50-kg block is suspended from the free end of the string. If the block is released from rest at a distance of 2.00 m above the floor, what is its speed just before it strikes the floor? (c) Repeat part (b), this time with the string wrapped around the edge of the larger disk. In which case is

the final speed of the block greater? Explain

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The total moment of inertia of the system is 0.00225鈥夆赌塳g.m2
  2. The speed of the block just before it strikes the floor is v=3.4m/s
  3. The speed of the block just before it strikes the floor is v=4.9鈥尘/s

Speed is more when the string is wrapped to the larger disk because the radius of the disk is larger, so the acceleration is more, hence the velocity of the block is more

Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data.

Given in the question,

The radius of disk 1 is,R1=2.50鈥夆赌塩m

The mass of disk 1 is,M1=0.80鈥夆赌塳g

The radius of disk 2 is,R1=5.00鈥夆赌塩m

The mass of disk 1 is,M2=1.60鈥夆赌塳g

The mass of the blockm=1.50鈥夆赌塳g

Distance covered by the block d=2鈥夆赌塵

02

Concept and Formula used

Rotational Motion

If the motion of an object is around a circular path, in a fixed orbit, then that motion is known as rotational motion.

Since the disk is rotating, we must apply the formula of rotational motion

1.Moment of inertia of a disk

I=12MR2

Where I is the moment of inertia, M is mass and R is the radius.

2. Newton鈥檚 third law, for translational motion

F=ma

Where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration

3. Newton鈥檚 third law, for rotational motion

I=

Where I is inertia , is torques, and is angular acceleration.

4. Relation between linear and angular acceleration

a=r

Where a is linear acceleration, r is radius and is the angular acceleration

03

(a) Total moment of inertia of the two disks

The total moment of inertia will be some of the inertia of both the disks

Itotal=I1+I2Itotal=12M1R12+12M2R22Itotal=120.80鈥夆赌塳g0.025鈥夆赌塵2+121.60鈥夆赌塳g0.05鈥夆赌塵2Itotal=0.00025鈥夆赌塳g.m2+0.002鈥夆赌塳g.m2Itotal=0.00225鈥夆赌塳g.m2

Hence the total moment of inertia of the system is0.00225鈥夆赌塳g.m2

04

(b) Finding the speed of the block just before it strikes the floor.

Let the tension in the string is T.

Now applying Newton鈥檚 third law for both the transitional and rotational motion.

Fnet=mamgT=ma鈥夆赌夆夆赌夆夆赌夆夆赌夆iItotal=

Considering both the disk as a system since the only force acting on the disks is T

Therefore, we can write

Itotal=T.R1T=ItotalR1鈥夆赌夆夆赌夆夆赌夆夆赌夆夆赌夆夆赌ii

Now substituting this value into equation (i)

mgItotalR1=ma

We know,

Linear acceleration = angular acceleration multiplied by the radius

a=R1=aR1

mgItotala/R1R1=maam+ItotalR12=mga=mgm+ItotalR12

Substituting the values

a=1.50鈥夆赌塳g9.8鈥夆赌塵/s21.50鈥夆赌塳g+0.00225鈥夆赌塳g.m20.0250鈥夆赌塵2a=2.88鈥夆赌塵/s2

Acceleration of the block is a=2.88鈥夆赌塵/s2

Now to find the velocity using the equation

v2=u2+2ad

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and d is the distance

v2=02+22.88鈥夆赌塵/s22鈥夆赌塵v=3.4m/s

Hence the speed of the block just before it strikes the floor is v=3.4m/s

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and d is the distance

v2=02+26.12鈥夆赌夆夆赌塵/s22鈥夆赌塵v=4.9鈥尘/s

Hence the speed of the block just before it strikes the floor is v=4.9鈥尘/s

Speed is more when the string is wrapped to the larger disk because the radius of the disk is larger, so the acceleration is more, hence the velocity of the block is more.

05

(c) Finding the speed of the block just before it strikes the floor.

Now if the string is wrapped around the larger disk. Let the tension in the string is T

Now applying Newton鈥檚 third law for both the transitional and rotational motion.

Fnet=mamgT=ma鈥夆赌夆夆赌夆iItotal=

Considering both the disk as a system since the only force acting on the disks is T

Therefore, we can write

Itotal=T.R2T=ItotalR2ii

Now substituting this value into equation (i)

mgItotalR2=ma

We know

Linear acceleration = angular acceleration multiplied by the radius

a=R1=aR2

mgItotala/R2R2=maam+ItotalR22=mga=mgm+ItotalR22

Substituting the values

a=1.50鈥夆赌塳g9.8鈥夆赌塵/s21.50鈥夆赌塳g+0.00225鈥夆赌塳g.m20.050鈥夆赌塵2a=6.12鈥夆赌塵/s2

Acceleration of the block is 6.12m/s2

Now to find the velocity using the equation

v2=u2+2ad

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and d is the distance

\(\begin{aligned}{}{v^2} = {0^2} + 2\left( {6.12\,\,\,\,{{\rm{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\rm{m}} {{{\rm{s}}^{\rm{2}}}}}} \right.} {{{\rm{s}}^{\rm{2}}}}}} \right)\left( {2\,\,{\rm{m}}} \right)\\v = 4.9\,{{\rm{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\rm{m}} {\rm{s}}}} \right.} {\rm{s}}}\end{aligned}\)

Hence the speed of the block just before it strikes the floor is \(v = 4.9\,{{\rm{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\rm{m}} {\rm{s}}}} \right.} {\rm{s}}}\)

Speed is more when the string is wrapped to the larger disk because the radius of the disk is larger, so the acceleration is more, hence the velocity of the block is more.
