- Modern wind turbines generate electricity from wind power. The large, massive blades have a large moment of inertia and carry a great amount of angular momentum when rotating. A wind turbine has a total of 3 blades. Each blade has a mass of m = 5500 kg distributed uniformly along its length and extends a distance r = 44 m from the center of rotation. The turbine rotates with a frequency of f = 12 rpm. a)Calculate the total moment of inertia of the wind turbine about its axis, in units of kilogram meters squared. b)Enter an expression for the angular momentum of the wind turbine, in terms of the defined quantities. c)Calculate the angular momentum of the wind turbine, in units of kilogram meters squared per second.arrow_forwardThe ability of the human eye to rapidly rotate was studied using contact lenses fitted with accelerometers. While a subject, whose eyeball has radius 1.25 cm, watches a moving object her eyeball rotates through 20.0" in a time interval of 80.5 ms. Assume that the eye starts at rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration during the first half of the interval, and then the rotation slows with a constant angular acceleration during the second half until it comes to rest. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the eye?arrow_forwardA hoop, a spherical shell, a solid sphere, and a hollow cylinder, all with the same mass and same radius are released from rest at the top of an incline. If they roll without slipping, which is the first to reach the bottom of the incline? A the hoop B the spherical shell C the solid sphere D the hollow cylinderarrow_forward
- A 20-kg child running at 1.4 m/s jumps onto a playground merry-go-round that has mass 180 kg and radius 1.6m. She is moving tangent to the platform when she jumps and she lands right on the edge. What is the angular velocity of the child and the merry-go-round if the merry-go-round started from rest? You can treat the merry-go-round as a solid disc and ignore any friction in its axle. Please answer in units of rad/sec.arrow_forwardA student holds a bike wheel and starts it spinning with an initial angular speed of 9.0rotations per second. The wheel is subject to some friction, so it gradually slows down. In the 10 s period following the inital spin, the bike wheel undergoes 70 complete rotations. Assuming the frictional torque remains constant, how much more time Δts will it take the bike wheel to come to a complete stop? The bike wheel has a mass of 0.625 kg and a radius of 0.315 m. If all the mass of the wheel is assumed to be located on the rim, find the magnitude of the frictional torque τf that was acting on the spinning wheel.arrow_forwardA solid ball (sphere) of mass 1 kg and radius 0.3 m is held at rest at the top of a ramp. There is enough friction so that the ball will roll down the ramp without slipping. The top of the ramp is 10 meters above the ground.What will the speed be of the ball just before it hits the bottom of the ramp?arrow_forward
- NASA physicians need to know whether the contents of astronauts' skulls (brain, eyes, eardrums, etc.) move so much during rotational maneuvers that injury might be caused. If you are an astronaut in a spinning spacecraft and have an initial angular displacement of 3.14 radians, an initial angular velocity of 3.683 radians per second, and an angular acceleration of 0.02 radians per second squared, what distance will your eyes have traveled around the center of your skull after 26.83 seconds?arrow_forwardWhat is the angular acceleration and how long will it take to decrease rotational speed by 27 rad/s?arrow_forwardYou are riding your bicycle down the road and decide to stop to take in the scenery. Initially, your bicycle tires are rotating at a frequency of 7 times per second. If it takes your bicycle 50 revolutions to come to a full stop, what is the magnitude of the angular acceleration (assume your acceleration is constant). Give your answer in units of radians per second squaredarrow_forward
- A 0.45 kg tetherball is attached to a pole and rotating in a horizontal circle of radius r₁ = 1.4 m and is circling at angular speed = 1.42 rad/s. As the rope wraps around the pole the radius of the circle shortens and became r2 = 0.9 m, that decreases the moment of inertia of the rotating tetherball. Neglecting air resistance what will be the angular speed of the ball after the rope is wrapped around the pole measured in kgm2/s (answer with 3 decimal places)? Aarrow_forwardA dragster starts from rest and accelerates down a track. Each tire has a radius of 0.320 m and rolls without slipping. At a distance of 393 m, the angular speed of the wheels is 253 rad/s. Determine (a) the linear speed of the dragster and (b) the magnitude of the angular acceleration of its wheels.arrow_forwardA thin, 20-gram hoop with a radius of 2 meters is rolling without slipping, initially along a level surface, with its center of mass moving at 20 m/s and with a rotation rate about that center of mass of 10 rad/s. Then it rolls up an incline, coming to rest (momentarily) as shown below.
