A solid cylinder with mass m, radius R, and rotational inertia I (about its center) is released from rest and rolls down a ramp. Friction between the bottom of the cylinder and the ramp causes the cylinder to roll without slipping. The linear acceleration of the cylinder is a. Which TWO of the equations below are correct for this scenario? The equations are in terms of m, I, R, and a, as well as f (the force of static friction between the cylinder and the ramp) and g. (You must pick BOTH of them to get this question correct!) f = ma mg sin θ = ma mg sin θ - f = ma f R = I (a/R) mg sin θ - f = I (a/R) R mg sin θ = IaR

A uniform hoop of radius R and mass m rotates freely (without friction) about a perpendicular axis through its rim, as shown. It is released from a position, labeled "Initial", with the hoop's center directly above with the axis. It swings past position "A" where the center is level with the axis and continues swinging through "B" where the center is below the axis. What are the angular accelerations at positions A and B?
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…
A uniform horizontal disk of radius 5.50 m turns without friction at w = 2.30 rev/s on a vertical axis through its center, as in the figure below. A feedback mechanism senses the angular speed of the disk, and a drive motor at A ensures that the angular speed remain constant while a m = 1.20 kg block on top of the disk slides outward in a radial slot. The block starts at the center of the disk at time t = 0 and moves outward with constant speed v = 1.25 cm/s relative to the disk until it reaches the edge at t = 465 s. The sliding block experiences no friction. Its motion is constrained to have constant radial speed by a brake at B, producing tension in a light string tied to the block. (a) Find the torque as a function of time that the drive motor must provide while the block is sliding.

Two discs rotate freely about their vertical axis passing through their centers in the horizontal plane. The corresponding moments of inertia are I1 and I2 with angular velocities w1 and w2.
