Question: `qexperiment to be viewed.

What is the relationship between the angular velocity of the axle

around which the string is wound and that of the large disk?

GOOD STUDENT RESPONSE

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

Anuglar velocities would be the same.

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`aThe angular velocity of the axle and the angular velocity of

the disk on the axle would be the same. However, the velocity

would be different because they are of different distances from

the center. In general, the axle will be moving at a slower

speed(velocity) than a point on the outside of the disk. I am not

sure if this is what you are asking.

The speed of the falling object is the same as the speed of a

point on the rim of the axle.

The angular velocity of the axle is equal to the speed of a point

on its rim divided by its radius: omega = v / r.

The disk rotates with the axle so it has the same angular

velocity. **

Question: `qIf the falling weight accelerates uniformly, does it

follow that the rotating disk has a uniform angular acceleration?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

Yes.

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`aGOOD STUDENT RESPONSE yes, because the angle of acceleration is

proportional to the velocity of the disk with the radius(which is

constant) as the constant of proportionality. And the velocity of

the disk will be the same as the velocity of the falling weight

which is dependent on the acceleration of the weight.

** If v changes at a uniform rate then since r is uniform, omega

= v / r changes at a uniform rate. **

Principles of Physics and General College Physics Problem 8.28:

Moment of inertia of bicycle wheel 66.7 cm diameter, mass 1.25 kg

at rim and tire.

The mass of the rim and tire is all located at about the same

distance from the axis of rotation, so the rim and tire

contribute m * r^2 to the total moment of inertia, where m is the

mass and r the distance from the axis of rotation of the rim and

tire.

The distance r is half the diameter, or 1/2 * 66.7 cm = 33.4 cm =

.334 m, and the mass is given as 1.25 kg, so the moment of

inertia of rim and tire is

I = m r^2 = 1.25 kg * (.334 m)^2 = 1.4 kg m^2.

Why can the mass of the hub be ignored?

The radius of the hub is less than 1/5 the radius of the tire;

because its moment of inertia is m r^2, where r is its 'average'

distance from the axis of rotation, its r^2 will be less than

1/25 as great as for the rim and tire. Even if the mass of the

hub is comparable to that of the rim and tire, the 1/25 factor

will make its contribution to the moment of inertia pretty much

negligible.

Question: `qgen Problem 8.38 arm, 3.6 kg ball accel at 7 m/s^2,

triceps attachment 2.5 cm below pivot, ball 30 cm above pivot.

Give your solution to the problem.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

I = m r^2

I = 3.6 kg * (.30 m)^2

I = 0.324 kg m^2.

alpha = a/r

alpha = 7 m/sec^2 / (0.3 m)

alpha = 23.3 rad/sec^2.

alpha = tau / I

23.3 rad/sec = tau / 0.324 kg m^2

tau = 7.55 N m

tau = F * ds

7.55 N m = F * 0.025 m

F = 302 N

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a** The moment of inertia of a 3.6 kg ball at a point 30 cm from

the axis of rotation is

I = m r^2 = 3.6 kg * (.30 m)^2 = .324 kg m^2.

At a 30 cm distance from axis of rotation the 7 m/s^2

acceleration becomes an angular acceleration of

alpha = a / r = 7 m/s^2 / (.3 m) = 23.3 rad/s^2.

The necessary torque is therefore

tau = I * alpha = .324 kg m^2 * 23.3 rad/s^2 = 7.6 m N, approx..

The muscle exerts its force at a point x = 2.5 cm from the axis

of rotation and perpendicular to that axis so we have

F = tau / x = 7.6 m N / (.025 m) = 304 N. **

STUDENT QUESTION

Ok. I see what I was supposed to do. The quantity I got for the

tension was

just about right though. But I didn’t understand how you

determined the angular acceleration ‘alpha by doing a / r.

INSTRUCTOR RESPONSE

A radian of angular displacement corresponds to a displacement

along the arc which is equal to the radius.

So any arc distance is equal to the angle, in radians, multiplied

by the radius:

`ds = r * `dTheta.

It immediately follows that the angular displacement is equal to

the arc displacement divided by the radius:

`dTheta = `ds / r.

All this follows immediately from the definition of a radian.

It's then easy to understand that an angular velocity of a

radian/second corresponds to an arc displacement equal to the

radius every second. So velocity along the arc is equal to the

radius multiplied by the angular velocity.

Once you understand this it isn't difficult to see that a rad/s^2

of angular acceleration corresponds to an acceleration equal to 1

radius / sec^2 along the arc.

More formally:

Since omega_Ave = `dTheta / `dt and `dTheta = `ds / r, omega_Ave

= (`ds / r) / `dt = r * `ds / `dt = v_ave / r, where v_ave is

average velocity along the arc. So v_Ave = omega_Ave * r.

Also since alpha_Ave = `dOmega / `dt, and `dOmega = `dv / r, we

have alpha_ave = (`dv / r) / `dt = (`dv / `dt) / r = a_Ave / r,

where a_Ave is the acceleration along the arc. So a_Ave = r *

alpha_ave.

to coast to rest if ax removed?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

120 rev/min / 60 sec

= 2 rev/sec

2 rev/sec * 2 pi rad

= 12.57 rad/sec

dv = 12.57 rad/sec

alpha = dv/dtr

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a** The system is brought from rest to a final angular velocity

of 120 rev/min * 1min/60 sec * 2`pi/1 rev = 12.6 rad/s.

The angular acceleration is therefore

alpha = change in omega / change in t = 12.6 rad/s / (9 sec) =

1.4 rad/s^2, approx..

The wheel has moment of inertia I = .5 m r^2 = .5 * 55 kg * (.52

m)^2 = 7.5 kg m^2, approx..

To achieve the necessary angular acceleration we have

tauNet = I * alpha = 7.5 kg m^2 * 1.4 rad/s^2 = 10.5 m N.

The frictional force between ax and wheel is .60 * 160 N = 96 N

at the rim of the wheel, resulting in torque

tauFrictAx = -96 N * .52 m = -50 m N.

The frictional torque of the wheel is in the direction opposite

motion and is therefore

tauFrict = -6.5 m N.

The net torque is the sum of the torques exerted by the crank and

friction:

tauNet = tauFrictAx + tauFrict + tauCrank so that the torque

necessary from the crank is

tauCrank = tauNet - tauFrict - tauCrank = 10.5 m N - (-50 m N) -

(-6.5 m N) = 67 m N.

The crank is .5 m long; the force necessary to achive the 60.5 m

N torque is therefore

F = tau / x = 67 m N / (.5 m) = 134 N.

If the ax is removed then the net torque is just the frictional

torque -6.5 m N so angular acceleration is

alpha = -6.5 m N / (7.5 kg m^2) = -.84 rad/s^2 approx.

Starting at 120 rpm = 12.6 rad/s the time to come to rest will be

`dt = `dOmega / alpha = -12.6 rad/s / (-.84 rad/s^2) = 14.5 sec,
