- When the electricity goes out on your campus, a backup source powers the servers that handle communications and the Internet. Rather than use batteries, many installations use a flywheel, a heavy rotating disk that spins, very rapidly, with nearly zero friction. An electric motor spins up the flywheel, which continues to spin with very little energy input. When the system needs to provide power, the flywheel’s motion is used to turn an electric generator. A typical system has a 540 kg cylinder with a radius of 0.30 m. A small electric motor provides a constant 2.8 N ⋅ m torque to spin up the cylinder. If the cylinder starts at rest, how long does it take to reach its final spin rate of 13,000 rpm?arrow_forwardTwo masses, mA = 34.0 kg and mB = 38.0 kg , are connected by a rope that hangs over a pulley (as in the figure). The pulley is a uniform cylinder of radius 0.381 m and mass 3.1 kg. Initially mA is on the ground and mB rests 2.4 m above the ground. If the system is released, use conservation of energy to determine the speed of mB just before it strikes the ground. Assume the pulley bearing is frictionless.arrow_forwardA hoop has a mass of 315g and a radius of 2cm. It rolls, without sliding, along a level ground at 9m/s with respect the ground.

- A Ferris wheel has moment of inertia 2.2 x 105 kg·m2. From rest, the operator starts the wheel and it accelerates for 13.4 seconds.

A ball of mass m = 10.0 kg is attached to the other end. The rod is pulled aside to angle θ0 = 70° and released with initial velocity ? = 5.00 m/s. (a) What is the speed of the ball at the lowest point?

Friction and air resistance can be ignored. Assume that the object is sliding, but not rolling, so its rotational kinetic energy is O J.

Use g = 9.80 m/s² as the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Jumarrow_forward
