Chapter 10, Problem 70P
The disk in Fig. 10.29 is rotating freely about a frictionless horizontal axle. Since the disk is unbalanced, its angular speed varies as it rotates. If the maximum angular speed is ωmax, find an expression for the minimum speed. (Hint: How does potential energy change as the wheel rotates?)

- A cord is wrapped around a pulley that is shaped like a disk of mass m and radius r. The cord's free end is connected to a block of mass M. The block starts from rest and then slides down an incline that makes an angle O with the horizontal as shown in the figure below. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is µu. (a) Use the concepts of energy to find an expression for the block's speed as a function of position, d, down the incline.

One such flywheel is a solid, uniform cylinder with a mass of 535 kg and a radius of 1.2 m that rotates about its central axis. What is the kinetic energy of the flywheel after charging? If the truck uses an average power of 8.4 kW, for how many minutes can it operate between chargings?arrow_forwardWhen the electricity goes out on your campus, a backup source powers the servers that handle communications and the Internet. Rather than use batteries, many installations use a flywheel, a heavy rotating disk that spins, very rapidly, with nearly zero friction. An electric motor spins up the flywheel, which continues to spin with very little energy input. When the system needs to provide power, the flywheel’s motion is used to turn an electric generator. A typical system has a 540 kg cylinder with a radius of 0.30 m. A small electric motor provides a constant 2.8 N ⋅ m torque to spin up the cylinder. If the cylinder starts at rest, how long does it take to reach its final spin rate of 13,000 rpm?arrow_forward
