introductory set 8.

If we know the constant moment of inertia of a rotating object and the constant net torque on the object, then how do we determine the angle through which it will rotate, starting from rest, in a given time interval?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

We must first determine the angular acceleration by dividing the torque by the moment of inertia. we then must determine the change in angular velocity by multiplying the angular acceleration by the time interval. Determine the average angular velocity, multiply that by the time to get the angle(theta)

** tau stands for torque and I stands for the moment of inertia. These quantities are analogous to force and mass.

Just as F = m a, we have tau = I * alpha; i.e., torque = moment of inertia * angular acceleration.

If we know the moment of inertia and the torque we can find the angular acceleration.

If we multiply angular acceleration by time interval we get change in angular velocity.

We add the change in angular velocity to the initial angular velocity to get the final angular velocity. In this case initial angular velocity is zero so final angular velocity is equal to the change in angular velocity.

If we average initial velocity with final velocity then, if angular accel is constant, we get average angular velocity. In this case angular accel is constant and init vel is zero, so ave angular vel is half of final angular vel.

When we multiply the average angular velocity by the time interval we get the angular displacement, i.e., the angle through which the object moves. **

If we know the initial angular velocity of a rotating object, and if we know its angular velocity after a given time, then if we also know the net constant torque accelerating the object, how would we find its constant moment of inertia?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Calculate the angular acceleration and multiply by the net constant torque.

** From init and final angular vel you find change in angular vel (`d`omega = `omegaf - `omega0). You can from this and the given time interval find Angular accel = change in angular vel / change in clock time.

Then from the known torque and angular acceleration we find moment of intertia. tau = I * alpha so I = tau / alpha. **

How do we find the moment of inertia of a concentric configuration of 3 uniform hoops, given the mass and radius of each?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

take each hoop separately and square the radius, then multiply by the mass. add the result of all three hoops to get the total moment of inertia.

17:19:40

** Moment of inertia of a hoop is M R^2. We would get a total of M1 R1^2 + M2 R2^2 + M3 R3^2. **

How do we find the moment of inertia a light beam to which are attached 3 masses, each of known mass and lying at a known distance from the axis of rotation?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

add the masses and multiply by the square of the known distance.

17:20:55

** Moment of inertia of a mass r at distance r is m r^2. We would get a total of m1 r1^2 + m2 r2^2 + m3 r3^2. Note the similarity to the expression for the hoops. **

gen problem 8.20 small wheel rad 2 cm in contact with 25 cm wheel, no slipping, small wheel accel at 7.2 rad/s^2.

What is the angular acceleration of the larger wheel?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

6500 rotations per minute = 3900 rotations per second.

6500 rotations / min = 6500 rotations / (60 seconds) = 108.3 rotatations / second or about 670 rad/sec, approx.

However these numbers don't seem to correspond to the given problem (???)

390000 * (2pi radians) = 780000 pi radiand per second

2450448 radians per second = initial angular velocity , the final is 0.

divide that change by 3 seconds to get an angukar acceleration of 816816 radians per second.

OK why did we not convert to seconds?

I'm kind of confused here.

angular acceleration = -1300 rpm/s

-1300 rpm/sec (pi/30 rad/sec)/rpm = 43 pirad/sec^2

** Since both wheels travel the same distances at the rim, angular displacements (which are equal to distance along the rim divided by radii) will be in inverse proportion to the radii. It follows that angular velocities and angular accelerations will also be in inverse proportion to radii.

The angular acceleration of the second wheel will therefore be 2/25 that of the first, or 2/25 * 7.2 rad/s^2 = .58 rad/s^2 approx.. **

How long does it take the larger wheel to reach 65 rpm?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

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

......!!!!!!!!...................................

17:29:39

** 65 rpm is 65 * 2 `pi rad / min = 65 * 2 `pi rad / (60 sec) = 6.8 rad / sec, approx.

At about .6 rad/s/s we get `dt = (change in ang vel) / (ang accel) = 6.8 rad / s / ( .6 rad / s^2) = 11 sec or so. **

Univ. 9.72 (64 in 10th edition). motor 3450 rpm, saw shaft 1/2 diam of motor shaft, blade diam .208 m, block shot off at speed of rim. How fast and what is centrip accel of pt on rim?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

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

......!!!!!!!!...................................

17:29:43

** The angular velocity of the shaft driving the blade is double that of the motor, or 3450 rpm * 2 = 7900 rpm.

Angular velocity is 7900 rpm = 7900 * 2 pi rad / 60 sec = 230 pi rad / sec.

At a distance of .208 m from the axis of rotation the velocity will be

.208 m * 230 pi rad / sec = 150 m/s, approx..

The angular acceleration at the .208 m distance is

aCent = v^2 / r = (150 m/s)^2 / (.208 m) = 108,000 m/s^2, approx..

The electrostatic force of attraction between sawdust and blade is nowhere near sufficient to provide this much acceleration. **
