A solid cylinder is pivoted at its center abouta frictionless axle. A force is applied to theouter radius of 1.34 m at an angle of 30 ◦above the tangential and exerts a force of 5 N.A second force is applied by wrapping ropearound the inner radius of 0.534 m, whichexerts a force of 9.1 N tangent to the cylinder. The moment of inertia of the cylinder is 325 kg · m^2. Find the net torque on the cylinder. Acounter-clockwise torque is defined to be positive

What three factors affect the torque created by a force relative to a specific pivot point?

A wheel 2.00 m in diameter lies in a vertical plane and rotates about its central axis with a constant angular acceleration of 4.00 rad/s2. The wheel starts at rest at t = 0, and the radius vector of a certain point P on the rim makes an angle of 57.3 with the horizontal at this time. At t = 2.00 s, find (a) the angular speed of the wheel and, for point P, (b) the tangential speed, (c) the total acceleration, and (d) the angular position.

Find the net torque on the wheel in Figure P10.23 about the axle through O, taking a = 10.0 cm and b = 25.0 cm. Figure P10.23

A top has moment of inertia 3.2104kgm2 and radius 4.0 cm from the center of mass to the pivot point. If it spins at 20.0 rev/s and is precessing, how many revolutions does it precess in 10.0 s?

A constant torque is applied to a rigid body whose moment of inertia is 4.0kgm2 around the axis of rotation. If the wheel starts from rest and attains an angular velocity of 20.0 rad/s in 10.0 s, what is the applied torque?

Check Your Understanding What is the moment of inertia of a cylinder of radius R and mass m about an axis through a point on the surface, as shown below? A uniform thin disk about an axis through the center Integrating to find the moment of inertia of a two-dimensional object is a little bit trickier, but one shape is commonly done at this level of study—a uniform thin disk about an axis through its center (Figure 10.27). Figure 10.27 Calculating the moment of inertia for a thin disk about an axis through its center.

Check Your Understanding The fan blades on a jet engine have a moment of inertia 30.0kgm2 . In 10s, they rotate counterclockwise from rest up to a rotation rate of 20 rev/s. (a) What torque must be applied to the blades to achieve this angular acceleration? (b) What is the torque required to bring the fan blades rotating at 20 rev/s to a rest in 20s?

A 40.0-kg solid cylinder is rolling across a horizontal surface at a speed of 6.0 m/s. How much work is required to stop it?

A 12.0-kg solid sphere of radius 1.50 m is being rotated by applying a constant tangential force of 10.0 N at a perpendicular distance of 1.50 m from the rotation axis through the center of the sphere. If the sphere is initially at rest, how many revolutions must the sphere go through while this force is applied before it reaches an angular speed of 30.0 rad/s?
