A 270-g mass hangs from a string that is wrapped around a pulley, as shown in the figure. The pulley is suspended in such a way that it can rotate freely. When the mass is released, it accelerates toward the floor as the string unwinds. Model the pulley as a uniform solid cylinder of mass 1.00 kg and radius 7.00 cm. Assume that the thread has negligible mass and does not slip or stretch as it unwinds. Determine the magnitude a of the pulley's angular acceleration. a = rad/s? Determine the magnitude of the acceleration a of the descending weight. a = m/s2

A piece of wood is pressed against a spindle sanding disk which is a uniform disk with a radius of 0.090 m, rotating at an initial angular velocity of 37.0 rad/s (ωi = 37.0 rad/s). This motion results in a constant tangential frictional force of magnitude f = 9.00 N and causes the sanding disk to come to a complete stop in = 25.0 s. (a) Small pieces of wood get removed from the large piece of wood with a speed equal in magnitude to the tangential velocity of the rim of the sanding disk (and in a direction tangent to the disk). What is thespeed of the pieces of wood when the disk is rotating at its initial angular velocity of ωi.(b) What is the angular acceleration α of the sanding disk.(c) How many revolutions does the disk complete before coming to a stop?
You are riding your bicycle down the street at a speed of 16 m/s. Your bicycle's frame has a mass of 6.0 kg, and each of its two wheels has mass 2.2 kg and radius 0.34 m.

The wheels of a wagon can be approximated as the combination of a thin outer hoop, of radius r = 0.368 m and mass 5.27 kg, and two thin crossed rods of mass 7.37 kg each. A farmer would like to replace his wheels with uniform disks ta = 0.0462 m thick, made out of a material with a density of 8290 kg per cubic meter. If the new wheel is to have the same moment of inertia about its center as the old wheel about its center, what should the radius of the disk be?
The outstretched hands and arms of a figure skater preparing for a spin can be considered a slender rod pivoting about an axis through its center (Figure 1). When his hands and arms are brought in and wrapped around his body to execute the spin, the hands and arms can be considered a thin-walled hollow cylinder. His hands and arms have a combined mass 8.0 kg. When outstretched, they span 1.6 m ; when wrapped, they form a thin-walled hollow cylinder of radius 26 cm. The moment of inertia about the rotation axis of the remainder of his body is constant and equal to 0.4 kg⋅m2. If his original angular speed is 0.30 rev/s, what is his final angular speed?

The outstretched hands and arms of a figure skater preparing for a spin can be considered a slender rod pivoting about an axis through its center ( Ibar=ml² where l is the length of the bar).

A uniform, solid cylinder with mass M and radius 2R rests on a horizontal tabletop. A string is attached by a yoke to a frictionless axle through the center of the cylinder so that the cylinder can rotate about the axle. The string runs over a disk-shaped pulley with mass M and radius R that is mounted on a frictionless axle through its center. A block of mass M is suspended from the free end of the string (the figure (Figure 1)). The string doesn't slip over the pulley surface, and the cylinder rolls without slipping on the tabletop. Find the magnitude of the acceleration of the block after the system is released from rest. Express your answer in terms of g, M, R.
