In the figure here, a cylinder having a mass of 4.5 kg can rotate about its central axis through point O. Forces are applied as shown: F = 4.4 N, F2 = 6.1 N, F3 = 9.1 N, and F4 = 7.6 N. Also, r = 4.7 cm and R = 10 cm. Taking the clockwise direction to be negative, find the angular acceleration of the cylinder. (During the rotation, the forces maintain their same angles relative to the cylinder.) Rotation аxis Number i 98.82 Unit rad/s^2
Gravitational force
In nature, every object is attracted by every other object. This phenomenon is called gravity. The force associated with gravity is called gravitational force. The gravitational force is the weakest force that exists in nature. The gravitational force is always attractive.
Acceleration Due to Gravity
In fundamental physics, gravity or gravitational force is the universal attractive force acting between all the matters that exist or exhibit. It is the weakest known force. Therefore no internal changes in an object occurs due to this force. On the other hand, it has control over the trajectories of bodies in the solar system and in the universe due to its vast scope and universal action. The free fall of objects on Earth and the motions of celestial bodies, according to Newton, are both determined by the same force. It was Newton who put forward that the moon is held by a strong attractive force exerted by the Earth which makes it revolve in a straight line. He was sure that this force is similar to the downward force which Earth exerts on all the objects on it.
![### Educational Content
In the figure, a cylinder with a mass of 4.5 kg can rotate about its central axis through point O. The following forces are applied:
- \( F_1 = 4.4 \, \text{N} \)
- \( F_2 = 6.1 \, \text{N} \)
- \( F_3 = 9.1 \, \text{N} \)
- \( F_4 = 7.6 \, \text{N} \)
Parameters given are \( r = 4.7 \, \text{cm} \) and \( R = 10 \, \text{cm} \). Taking the clockwise direction as negative, find the angular acceleration of the cylinder. During rotation, the forces maintain their angles relative to the cylinder.
**Diagram Explanation**
The diagram shows a cylindrical object with a radius R, illustrating the forces \( F_1, F_2, F_3, \) and \( F_4 \) acting on its surface. The forces are depicted as vectors, each pointing in a distinct direction from the surface of the cylinder. The cylinder rotates about its axis at point O, and a rotation axis is indicated.
**Solution**
The answer box at the bottom shows a calculated value of 98.82 with the unit rad/s\(^2\).
This setup is typically used to teach rotational dynamics, where torque, radius, and force interactions are considered to determine angular acceleration.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F90f0cc1b-72a1-4755-a841-d9a74a1d628c%2F7d56fcbf-be82-41c4-91da-c8c17afb7bda%2Fna8ed08_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
![The image presents a physics problem involving torque and forces acting on a body pivoted at point O. Three forces are acting on the body in specified directions:
- **Force \( F_A \)**: 5.40 N located at point A, 8.00 m from the pivot O.
- **Force \( F_B \)**: 16.0 N located at point B, 2.10 m from the pivot O.
- **Force \( F_C \)**: 19.0 N located at point C, 4.80 m from the pivot O.
The diagram illustrates the direction and position of the forces relative to point O, with angles mentioned for each force:
- \( F_A \) is at an angle of 135° from the line connecting O and A,
- \( F_B \) is perpendicular (90°) to the line OB,
- \( F_C \) is at an angle of 160° from the line OC.
The problem asks for the calculation of the net torque about point O, taking the clockwise direction to be negative.
A field to enter the calculated torque value is provided, along with a dropdown menu to select the appropriate units, which are given as Newton-meters (N·m).
The diagram shows the three forces acting outward from point O on the object, visualizing how each force is applied at their respective points.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F90f0cc1b-72a1-4755-a841-d9a74a1d628c%2F7d56fcbf-be82-41c4-91da-c8c17afb7bda%2Froputgj_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
