A uniform, solid metal disk of mass 6.50 kg and diameter 24.0 cm hangs in a horizontal plane, supported at its center by a vertical metal wire. You find that it requires a horizontal force of 4.23 N tangent to the rim of the disk to turn it by 3.34°, thus twisting the wire. You now remove this force and release the disk from rest. (a) What is the torsion constant for the metal wire? (b) What are the frequency and period of the torsional oscillations of the disk? (c) Write the equation of motion for θ(t) for the disk.

- A nylon siring has mass 5.50 g and length L = 86.0 cm. The lower end is tied to the floor, and the upper end is tied to a small set of wheels through a slot in a track on which the wheels move (Fig. P18.76). The wheels have a mass that is negligible compared with that of the siring, and they roll without friction on the track so that the upper end of the string is essentially free. Figure P18.76 At equilibrium, the string is vertical and motionless. When it is carrying a small-amplilude wave, you may assume the string is always under uniform tension 1.30 N. (a) Find the speed of transverse waves on the siring, (b) The string's vibration possibilities are a set of standing-wave states, each with a node at the fixed bottom end and an antinode at the free top end. Find the node-antinode distances for each of the three simplest states, (c) Find the frequency of each of these states.arrow_forwardConsider a nanotube with a Youngs modulus of 2.130 1012 N/m2 that experiences a tensile stress of 5.3 1010 N/m2.
