Mary is an avid game show fan and one of the contestants on a popular game show. She spins the wheel and after 1.5 revolutions, the wheel comes to rest on a space that has a $1,500.00 prize. If the initial angular speed of the wheel is 3.20 rad/s, find the angle through which the wheel has turned when the angular speed is 1.40 rad/s.

Your grandmother enjoys creating pottery as a hobby. She uses a potter's wheel, which is a stone disk of radius R = 0.540 m and mass M = 100 kg. In operation, the wheel rotates at 45.0 rev/min. While the wheel is spinning, your grandmother works clay at the center of the wheel with her hands into a pot-shaped object with circular symmetry. When the correct shape is reached, she wants to stop the wheel in as short a time interval as possible, so that the shape of the pot is not further distorted by the rotation. She pushes continuously with a wet rag as hard as she can radially inward on the edge of the wheel and the wheel stops in 6.00 s. You would like to build a brake to stop the wheel in a shorter time interval, but you must determine the coefficient of friction (?k) between the rag and the wheel in order to design a better system. You determine that the maximum pressing force your grandmother can sustain for 6.00 s is 65.0 N. What If? If your grandmother instead chooses to press…
The bit of a high-speed drill accelerates from an angular speed of 2.35 x 102 rad/s to an angular speed of 5.65 x 10² rad/s. In the process, the bit turns through 275.5 Rev. assuming a constant angular acceleration, how long would it take the bit to reach its maximum speed of 9.88 x 102 rad/s, starting from 1.05 x 102 rad/s?

A cylinder is 0.4 m in radius and {h} m in length. Its rotational inertia, about the cylinder axis on which it is mounted, is 1.2 kg. m². A string is wound around the cylinder and pulled with a force of 4 N. The angular acceleration of the cylinder is: Answer:
A wind turbine is initially spinning at a constant angular speed. As the wind's strength gradually increases, the turbine experiences a constant angular acceleration 0.168 rad/s2. After making 2870 revolutions, its angular speed is 146 rad/s. (a) What is the initial angular velocity of the turbine? (b) How much time elapses while the turbine is speeding up?
The drive propeller of a ship starts from rest and accelerates at 2.55 x 10-3 rad/s² for 2.35 x 103 s. For the next 1.68 x 10³ s the propeller rotates at a constant angular speed. Then it decelerates at 2.77 x 10-3 rad/s2 until it slows (without reversing direction) to an angular speed of 2.23 rad/s. Find the total angular displacement of the propeller. Number i Units
A certain wheel has a rotational inertia of 4.9 kg.m² . As it turns through 2.8 revolutions, its angular velocity increases from 7.9 rad/s to 8.1 rad/s. If the net torque is constant its value (N.m) is:
A metal ball with 0.27 kg of mass and 0.050 m of radius rolled without slipping on a horizontal floor. A ramp was placed on the floor. The ball rolled up the incline without slipping to a vertical height of 0.47 m before stopping. The ramp has a length of 1.7 m along the incline. Find the speed of the ball before it reached the ramp. Hint: the ball has rotational kinetic energy. The rotational inertia of a solid sphere is (2/5)mr^2.
