Chapter 19.2, Problem 19.46P
A three-blade wind turbine used for research is supported on a shaft so that it is free to rotate about O. One technique to determine the centroidal mass moment of inertia of an object is to place a known weight at a known distance from the axis of rotation and to measure the frequency of oscillations after releasing it from rest with a small initial angle. In this case, a weight of Wadd = 50 lb is attached to one of the blades at a distance R = 20 ft from the axis of rotation. Knowing that when the blade with the added weight is displaced slightly from the vertical axis, and the system is found to have a period of 7.6 s, determine the centroidal mass moment of inertia of the three-blade rotor.

For a certain engine having an average speed of
1200 rpm, a flywheel approximated as a solid
disc, is required for keeping the fluctuation of
speed within 2% about the average speed. The
fluctuation of kinetic energy per cycle is found to
be 2 kJ. What is the least possible mass of the
flywheel if its diameter is not to exceed 1 m?
An inertial balance provides a way to measure the mass of an object based on oscillation without using earth’s gravity. Assume the inertial balance behaves like a SHM spring and mass system and has a spring constant of 100 N/m. A mass is placed on the balance and oscillates with a frequency of 37 Hz. Determine the mass of the object.
Maximum fluctuation of kinetic energy in an engine
has been calculated to be 2600 J. Assuming that
the engine runs at an average speed of 200 rpm,
the polar mass moment of inertia (in kg.m2) of a
flywheel to keep the speed fluctuation within +0.5%
of the average speed is
