Question

Four objects are held in position by massless rigid rods as indicated in the figure above. The masses of the objects are: m1 = 6.7 kg, m2 = 1.56 kg, m3 = 2.16 kg, and m4 = 21.03 kg. For each of the possible axes of rotation (x, y, and through the origin, the z-axis)what torque would be necessary for the system shown in the above diagram to have an angular acceleration of 2.47 s^−2. (The dimensions in the diagram are A = 5.21 m, B = 8.12 m)

Definition Definition Rate of change of angular velocity. Angular acceleration indicates how fast the angular velocity changes over time. It is a vector quantity and has both magnitude and direction. Magnitude is represented by the length of the vector and direction is represented by the right-hand thumb rule. An angular acceleration vector will be always perpendicular to the plane of rotation. Angular acceleration is generally denoted by the Greek letter α and its SI unit is rad/s 2 .
