Concept explainers
Two 10-lb disks and a small motor are mounted on a 15-lb rectangular platform that is free to rotate about a central vertical spindle. The normal operating speed of the motor is 180 rpm. If the motor is started when the system is at rest, determine the angular velocity of all elements of the system after the motor has attained its normal operating speed. Neglect the mass of the motor and of the belt.

- In the helicopter shown; a vertical tail propeller is used to pre- vent rotation of the cab as the speed of the main blades is changed. Assuming that the tail propeller is not operating determine the final angular velocity of the cab after the speed of the main blades has been changed from I80 to 240 rpm. (The speed of the main blades is measured relative to the cab, and the cab has a centroidal moment of inertia of 650 lb.ft.s2. Each of the four main blades is assumed to be a slender rod 14 ft weighing 55 lb.)arrow_forwardRequired information NOTE: This is a multi-part question.
