The wheels of a wagon can be approximated as the combination of a thin outer hoop of radius rh = 0.155 m and mass 5.30 kg, and two thin crossed rods of mass 7.25 kg each. Imagine replacing the wagon wheels with uniform disks that are ta = 6.50 cm thick, made out of a material with a density of 5970 kg/m³. If the new wheel is to have the same moment of inertia about its center as the old wheel about its center, what should the radius of the disk (ra) be? Ө

You are trying to get a better feel for the effect of geometry and mass distribution on the moment of inertia. You have a solid disk and a thin ring, each of radius, r = 1.30 m, and mass, m = 73.0 kg. You mount both on fixed, horizontal frictionless axes about which they can spin freely. Then you spin them both. (a) How much work do you need to do to get each object to spin at 3.00 rad/s? (b) Let us assume that you have been causing them to spin by using a constant force applied tangentially to their circumferences. If the above speed is to be reached within 0.700 s, what is the magnitude of the force you need to apply to each object? (c) You next attempt to stop each object by pressing one finger on each side of each object, right at the outer edge. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each finger and the surface of each object is 0.300. Find the minimum force you have to apply to stop each object within 1.00 min.

The figure below shows a side view of a car tire before it is mounted on a wheel. Model it as having two sidewalls of uniform thickness 0.600 cm and a tread wall of uniform thickness 2.50 cm and width 19.8 cm. Assume the rubber has a uniform density 1.10 x 10³ kg/m³. Find its moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to the page through its center. 0.082 x Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. kg - m² 33.0 cm 30.5 cm 16.5 cm Sidewall Tread

We can model a small merry-go-round as a uniform circular disk with mass 88 kg and diameter 1.8 m. How many 22 kg children need to ride the merry-go-round, standing right at the outer edge, to double the moment of inertia of the system?

Two disks are initially spinning, one above the other on a small axle that provides a small, but non-negligible torque from friction, as shown in the figure below. Both disks have the same radius, R = 2.58 m. Disk 1 has a moment of inertia I1 = 9.8 kg⋅m2. Disk 2 has a moment of inertia I2 = 5 kg⋅ m2. Let vertically up be the z direction, such that counterclockwise rotation as viewed from above corresponds to positive values of the z-component. Disk 1 is initially spinning with a z-component of angular velocity ω1,z = 21 rad/s, and disk 2 is initially spinning with a z-component of angular velocity ω2,z = -15 rad/s. The z component of their common angular velcoity is 8.837 rad/s How much thermal energy is created in the process of disk 1 falling on disk 2 such that they reach a common final angular velocity? You do not need to worry about the gravitational potential energy because the initial separation of the disks is small. I get I need to use kinetic energy equations of 1/2*I*w2 but…

A force vector, F = 3i− 12j, acts at a distance vector of r = 0.2i m from the axis of rotation on a wheel. It has a moment of inertia of 3 kgm^2.  If we assume the full mangitude of the torque causes rotation, what is the angular acceleration caused by the force?
