Multiple-Concept Example 10 reviews the approach and some of the concepts that are pertinent to this problem. The figure shows a model for the motion of the human forearm in throwing a dart. Because of the force M applied by the triceps muscle, the forearm can rotate about an axis at the elbow joint. Assume that the forearm has the dimensions shown in the figure and a moment of inertia of 0.069 kg-m² (including the effect of the dart) relative to the axis at the elbow. Assume also that the force M acts perpendicular to the forearm. Ignoring the effect of gravity and any frictional forces, determine the magnitude of the force M needed to give the dart a tangential speed of 6.9 m/s in 0.12 s, starting from rest.

This problem describes one experimental method for determining the moment of inertia of an irregularly shaped object such as the payload for a satellite. Figure P10.47 shows a counterweight of mass m suspended by a cord wound around a spool of radius r, forming part of a turntable supporting the object. The turntable can rotate without friction. When the counterweight is released from rest, it descends through a distance h, acquiring a speed v. Show that the moment of inertia I of the rotating apparatus (including the turntable) is mr2((2gh)/v2) – 1)
A toy top with a spool of diameter 5.0 cm has a moment of inertia of 3.0 times10-5 kg * m^2 about its rotation axis. to get the top spinning, its string is pulled with a tension of 0.30 N. How long does it take for the top to complete the first five revolutions? the string is long enough that it is wrapped around the top more than five turns.

What is the moment of inertia a 30 cm long and 3.0 cm wide ruler, with a mass of 50 g, around the axis passing through the geometric center. For how much does the moment of inertia change if we drill a hole in the ruler with a diameter of 1.0 cm, 5.0 cm from the end of the ruler? (The solutions are 3750 g×cm^2 and -44 g×cm^2 )
The figure above shows two barbells, which can be modeled as two point masses connected by a massless rod. In the figure, L = 0.77 m and m = 20.1 kg. The barbells can rotate about an axis that is perpendicular to the rod and passes through the midpoint of each rod. For the barbell with the larger moment of inertia, give the moment of inertia (in units of kg m2).
What is the moment of inertia of a hockey puck that has a mass of 170 g, a thickness of 2.5 cm, and a diameter of 7.6 cm? The formula for the moment of inertia of a cylinder is I = mr²
I was wondering if I could have some guidance on a homework question. I was unable to find help, so I would just like some tips that point me in the right direction. Here is some background info: Setup For our dynamic measurement of the moment of inertia, we will use a vertically-mounted turntable that has a hub attached at its center, which has three grooves of different radius, around which one can wind a string. A mass hanging from the free end of the string provides tension, which exerts a torque on the turntable, thus causing it to rotate. By measuring the time it takes the mass to fall from its initial height to the table top (or some reference line just above it), we can find aa, its (linear) acceleration. From this we can calculate αα, the angular acceleration of the turntable. From the weight of the mass, and its linear acceleration, we can find T, the tension in the string. Once we know all these things, we can calculate the torque, ττ, and from τ=Iατ=Iα find I, the moment of…
A spherical object has a(n) 70.9 m diame- ter. Its moment of inertia about a diameter is I = fMR2, where M is its mass, R is its radius, and f = 0.579. Starting from rest, how long will it take this object to roll without slipping 14.18 m down an incline that makes an angle of 29.3° with the horizontal? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s². Answer in units of s.

What is the moment of inertia of the person and twomasses about a vertical axis that goes through the person? Hint: because of the choice of axis, we can ignore Iperson.

Two disks are initially spinning, one above the other on a small axle that provides a small, but non-negligible torque from friction, as shown in the figure below. Both disks have the same radius, R = 2.58 m. Disk 1 has a moment of inertia I1 = 9.8 kg⋅m2. Disk 2 has a moment of inertia I2 = 5 kg⋅ m2. Let vertically up be the z direction, such that counterclockwise rotation as viewed from above corresponds to positive values of the z-component. Disk 1 is initially spinning with a z-component of angular velocity ω1,z = 21 rad/s, and disk 2 is initially spinning with a z-component of angular velocity ω2,z = -15 rad/s. The z component of their common angular velcoity is 8.837 rad/s How much thermal energy is created in the process of disk 1 falling on disk 2 such that they reach a common final angular velocity? You do not need to worry about the gravitational potential energy because the initial separation of the disks is small. I get I need to use kinetic energy equations of 1/2*I*w2 but…
