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…
Two girls (26 kg each) are standing on the edge of a solid, rotating disk of mass 70 kg and radius 1.3m. The initial angular speed of the disk is 0.71 rev/s. If one of the girls moves slowly toward the center while the other stays put at the edge, what is the new angular speed of the disk when she reaches the halfway point?
A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the wheel starts turning, you are at the very top. a. What is your angular position 75 seconds after the wheel starts turning, measured counterclockwise from the top? Express your answer as an angle between 0∘ and 360∘. b. What is your speed?
An entertainer has perched a 281 g spinning plate on top of a pole. The plate has a radius of 12 cm and is spinning at 68 rpm. A 277 g cup with a moment of inertia of 0.005 kg•m2 is then placed in the center of the plate. The cup beings to spin with the plate. Once the two objects are spinning together, what rate of spin, in revolutions per minute do they have? Answer to one decimal place
A steel disc with a mass of 1.505 kg and a diameter of 8.00 cm is rotating with angular speed 4.75 rad/s. A second, aluminum disc of the same diameter but with mass 527 g and rotating with angular speed -0.07 rad/s is dropped on to the steel disc and both come to a common angular speed. What is this final angular speed?
A thread is wrapped around a cylindrical spool, of radius R = 2.0 cm, whose central axis is fixed on a support. Somebody’s hand pulls the thread off the spool. This causes the spool to rotate. The acceleration of the person’s hand is constant. Starting from rest, it takes 10 seconds for 5.0 meters of thread to be pulled off. What is the angular speed of the spool at time t = 2.0 s?
A hoop, a spherical shell, a solid sphere, and a hollow cylinder, all with the same mass and same radius are released from rest at the top of an incline. If they roll without slipping, which is the first to reach the bottom of the incline? A the hoop B the spherical shell C the solid sphere D the hollow cylinder
A cylinder has a cone removed from it. The cylinder and the conical hole have the same radius (2.06 meters) and height (4.56 meters). The cylinder has a density of 447 kg/m3. What is the rotational inertia of the cylinder with the cone removed in kg m2? You can set your origin at the tip of the cone, which is also the center of the base of the cylinder.
A student, sitting on a stool rotating at a rate of 38 RPM, holds masses in each hand. When his arms are extended, the total rotational inertia of the system is 7.5 kg · m2. He pulls his arms in close to his body, reducing the total rotational inertia to 4.5 kg · m2. If there are no external torques, what is the new rotational velocity of the system? RPM?
A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provide a means for storing energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy and are being considered as a possible alternative to batteries in electric cars. The gasoline burned in a 131-mile trip in a typical midsize car produces about 3.01 x 10 J of energy. How fast would a 38.5-kg flywheel with a radius of 0.597 m have to rotate to store this much energy? Give your answer in rev/min. Number i jud eTextbook and Media Units >
A circular disk with a radius of 0.38 m is subject to 2 tangentially applied forces. The disc is fixed such that it will rotate about its center. Both forces produce a torque in the same direction. The mass of the disc is 0.73 kg. The moment of inertia of a disc is I = 1/2 MR^2 F1 = 2.3 N applied at the outer edge of the disc. F2 = 3.6 N applied at a distance of 0.29 from the center of the disc. What is the angular acceleration of the disc?
A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.5×10−333.5×10^-3 s, radius 10 km. And suppose its mass is 2.1×10302.1×10^30 kg. The pulsar's rotational period will increase over time due to the release of electromagnetic radiation, which doesn't change its radius but reduces its rotational energy. A. What is the angular momentum of the pulsar? Give your answer in the scientific notation, in the normalized form. L = x 10 js B. Suppose the angular velocity decreases at a rate of 4.7×10−144.7×10-14 rad/s2. What is the magnitude of the torque on the pulsar? Give your answer in the scientific notation, in the normalized form.
