In order to determine the mass moment of inertia of a flywheel of radius 600 mm, a 12-kg block is attached to a wire that is wrapped around the flywheel. The block is released and is observed to fall 3 m in 4.6 s. To eliminate bearing friction from the computation, a second block of mass 24 kg is used and is observed to fall 3 m in 3.1 s. Assuming that the moment of the couple due to friction remains constant, determine the mass moment of inertia of the flywheel. A
An Atwood's machine was used by a student to determine the acceleration of two masses, m₁=73 grams and m2=70 grams. The pulley rotates freely, and the masses were released from rest and the vertical distance traveled by the masses is 80 cm. The student conducted 5 trials to measure the time it took the masses to travel the vertical distance of 80 cm. The measured time were 3.23 s, 3.08s, 3.43s, 3.29s and 3.67s.
