- Repeat Example 10.15 in which the stick is free to have translational motion as well as rotational motion.arrow_forwardThe precession angular velocity of a gyroscope is 1.0 rad/s. If the mass of the rotating disk is 0.4 kg and its radius is 30 cm, as well as the distance from the center of mass to the pivot, what is the rotation rate in rev/s of the disk?arrow_forwardCan a set of forces have a net force that is zero and a net torque that is not zero?arrow_forward
- An automobile engine can produce 200Nm of torque. Calculate the angular acceleration produced if 95.0 of this torque is applied to the drive shaft, axle, and rear wheels of a car, given the following information. The car is suspended so that the wheels can turn freely. Each wheel acts like a 15.0-kg disk that has a 0.180-m radius. The walls of each tire act like a 2.00-kg annular ring that has inside radius of 0.180 m and outside radius of 0.320 m. The tread of each tire acts like a 10.0-kg hoop of radius 0.330 m. The 14.0-kg axle acts like a rod that has a 2.00-cm radius. The 30.0-kg drive shaft acts like a rod that has a 3.20-cm radius.arrow_forwardIf the torque acting on a particle about an axis through a certain origin is zero, what can you say about its angular momentum about that axis?arrow_forwardDoes increasing the number of blades on a propeller increase or decrease its moment of inertia, and why?arrow_forward
- Can a single force produce a zero torque?arrow_forwardA uniform rod of mass M and length l can pivot freely (i.e., we ignore friction) about a hinge attached to a wall, as in Fig. 8-63. The rod is held horizontally and then released. At the moment of release, determine (a) the angular acceleration of the rod, and (b) the linear acceleration of the tip of the rod. Assume that the force of gravity acts at the center of mass of the rod, as shown. [Hint: See Fig. 8–20g.] СМ FIGURE 8-63 Problem 89.

(ii) sum of torques of %3D all the forces about O. (iii) moment of all the forces about A, when no force is acting at A.

- 12–158. An airplane is flying in a straight line with a velocity of 200 mi/h and an acceleration of 3 mi/h². If the propeller has a diameter of 6 ft and is rotating at a constant angular rate of 120 rad/s, determine the magnitudes of velocity and acceleration of a particle located on the tip of the propeller.arrow_forward(I) A 52-kg person riding a bike puts all her weight on eachpedal when climbing a hill. The pedals rotate in a circle ofradius 17 cm. (a) What is the maximum torque she exerts?(b) How could she exert more torque?arrow_forward(II) A grinding wheel is a uniform cylinder with a radius of 8.50 cm and a mass of 0.380 kg. Calculate (a) its moment of inertia about its center, and (b) the applied torque needed to accelerate it from rest to 1750 rpm in 5.00 s. Take into account a frictional torque that has been measured to slow down the wheel from 1500 rpm to rest in 55.0 s.arrow_forward
