- Two wheels have the same mass and radius of 4.7 kg and 0.38 m, respectively. One has (a) the shape of a hoop and the other (b) the shape of a solid disk. The wheels start from rest and have a constant angular acceleration with respect to a rotational axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the wheel at its center. Each turns through an angle of 14 rad in 9.5 s. Find the net external torque that acts on each wheel.arrow_forwardThe figure below shows a rigid system which can rotate. M = 1.2 kg, L = 1.3 m, and the connecting rod as negligible mass. Treat the masses as point particles.

Answer in units of kg m2 .arrow_forwardAs a torque activity, your Physics TA sets up the arrangement shown below. A uniform rod of mass mr = 143 g and length L = 100.0 cm is attached to the wall with a pin as shown. Cords are attached to the rod at the r1 = 10.0 cm and r2 = 90.0 cm mark, passed over pulleys, and masses of m1 = 286 g and m2 = 177 g are attached. Your TA asks you to determine the following. (a) The position r3 on the rod where you would suspend a mass m3 = 200 g in order to balance the rod and keep it horizontal if released from a horizontal position. In addition, for this case, what force (magnitude and direction) does the pin exert on the rod? Use standard angle notation to determine the direction of the force the pin exerts on the rod. Express the direction of the force the pin exerts on the rod as the angle ?F, measured with respect to the positive x-axis (counterclockwise is positive and clockwise is negative). r3 = m Fp = N ?F = ° (b) Let's now remove the mass m3 and determine the new…arrow_forward

- A 39.8 kg child stands on a spinning platform that has been well maintained (neglect friction in the axle). Initially the platform is spinning at 4.9 rev/s while the child's arms are extended outward (holding some weights). The child then pulls the weights back to close to their body. What is the final angular speed in rev/s of the platform? Assume that the child can be considered a cylinder with a diameter of 1.2 m, spinning along its center axis and the weights are point masses (2 kg each) that are initially 1.1 m away from the center of the child. Assume that the weights are at the outer edge of the "cylinder" (i.e., the child) in the final moment.arrow_forwardA centrifuge rotor rotating at 9300 rpm is shut off and is eventually brought uniformly to rest by a frictional torque of 1.66 m⋅N.
