To determine

The rotational kinetic energy of the system when the ball and rod reach a horizontal position.

Answer to Problem 70PQ

The rotational kinetic energy of the system when the ball and rod reach a horizontal position is 10.3J_.

Explanation of Solution

For the isolated rod-ball-Earth system with no friction, the mechanical energy is conserved.

  Ki+Ui=Kf+Ui                                                                                                      (I)

Here, Ki is the initial kinetic energy, Ui is the initial potential energy, Kf is the final kinetic energy (rotational kinetic energy), and Uf is the final potential energy of the system.

The initially the system has only potential energy and has no kinetic energy. At the final position, the entire potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Thus, equation (I) can be modified as,

  Ui=Kf                                                                                                                     (II)

Write the expression for the initial potential energy of the given system.

  Ui=mrodgyCM, rod+mballgyCM, ball                                                                                (III)

Here, mrod is the mass of rod, mball is the mass of ball, g is the acceleration due to gravity, yCM, rod is the height of at which the center of mass of the rod occupies, and mCM, ball is the height at which the center of mass of the ball occupies.

Use equation (III) in (II) and solve for Kf.

  mrodgyCM, rod+mballgyCM, ball=KfKf=(mrodyCM, rod+mballyCM, ball)g                                         (IV)

For the uniform rod, the center of mass is at the mid-point. Since the length of the rod is 15.0cm, initially, the center of mass of the rod is at 7.50cm above the ground. Since the ball has radius 5.00cm, initially the center of mass of the ball is at 20.0cm above the ground since the ball is fixed on top of the rod.

Conclusion:

Substitute 0.600kg for mrod, 7.50cm for yCM, rod, 5.00kg for mball, 20.0cm for yCM, ball, and 9.81m/s2 for g in equation (IV) to find Kf.

  Kf=[(0.600kg)(7.50cm)+(5.00kg)(20.0cm)](9.81m/s2)=[(0.600kg)(7.50cm×1m100cm)+(5.00kg)(20.0cm×1m100cm)](9.81m/s2)=10.3J

Therefore, the rotational kinetic energy of the system when the ball and rod reach a horizontal position is 10.3J_.

To determine

The angular speed of the system when it reach the horizontal position.

Answer to Problem 70PQ

The angular speed of the system when it reach the horizontal position is 9.90rad/s_.

Explanation of Solution

The system can be assumed as, the sphere as a point particle which occupies at a distance h from the center of rotation.

Write the expression for the rotational inertia of the given rod-ball system.

  I=13mrodL2+[25mballR2+mballh2]                                                                            (V)

Here, I is the rotational inertia, L is the length of the rod, R is the radius of the sphere, and h is the distance to the center of mass of the sphere from the center of rotation.

Write the expression for the rotational kinetic energy of the system at the horizontal position..

  Kf=12Iω2                                                                                                             (VI)

Here, ω is the angular speed of the system.

Solve equation (VI) for ω.

  ω=2KfI                                                                                                               (VII)

Conclusion:

Substitute 0.600kg for mrod, 5.00kg for mball, 15.0cm for L, 5.00cm for R, and 20.0cm for h in equation (VI) to find I.

  I=13(0.600kg)(15.0cm)2+[25(5.00kg)(5.00cm)2+(5.00kg)(20.0cm)2]=13(0.600kg)(15.0cm×1m100cm)2+[25(5.00kg)(5.00cm×1m100cm)2+(5.00kg)(20.0cm×1m100cm)2]=0.210kgm2

Substitute 0.210kgm2 for I, and 10.3J for Kf in equation (VII) to find ω.

  ω=2(10.3J)0.210kgm2=9.90rad/s

Therefore, the angular speed of the system when it reach the horizontal position is 9.90rad/s_.

To determine

The linear speed of the center of mass of the ball when the system reach the horizontal position.

Answer to Problem 70PQ

The linear speed of the center of mass of the ball when the system reach the horizontal position is 1.98m/s_.

Explanation of Solution

It is obtained that the angular speed of the system when it reach the horizontal position is 9.90rad/s. The distance to the center of the ball from the center of rotation is 20.0cm.

Write the expression for the linear speed in terms of the angular speed.

  v=rω                                                                                                                     (VIII)

Here, v is the linear speed, and r is the perpendicular distance between the center of rotation and the rotating object.

Conclusion:

Substitute 20.0cm for r, and 9.90rad/s for ω in equation (VIII) to find v.

  v=(20.0cm)(9.90rad/s)=(20.0cm×1m100cm)(9.90rad/s)=1.98m/s

Therefore, the linear speed of the center of mass of the ball when the system reach the horizontal position is 1.98m/s_.

Expert Solution

To determine

The ratio of the speed of the ball when the system is at the horizontal position and the speed of the ball that falls freely through the same distance.

Answer to Problem 70PQ

The ratio of the speed of the ball when the system is at the horizontal position and the speed of the ball that falls freely through the same distance is 1.00_.

Explanation of Solution

It is obtained that the linear speed of the center of mass of the ball when the system reach the horizontal position is 1.98m/s.

Write the expression for the speed of the freely balling ball.

  vf2=vi22g(yfyi)                                                                                              (IX)

Here, vf is the final speed, vi is the initial speed, yf is the final height, and yi is the initial height.

Since the ball falls from rest, and reaches the ground, the initial speed is zero, and the final height is zero. Thus, equation (IX) can be modified and solved for vf as,

  vf2=2gyiv=2gyi                                                                                                                (X)

Conclusion:

Substitute 9.81m/s2 for g, and 20.0cm for yi in equation (X) to find vf.

  vf=2(9.81m/s2)(20.0cm)=2(9.81m/s2)(20.0cm×1m100cm)=1.98m/s

This indicates that the speed of the ball when the system is at the horizontal position and the speed of the ball that falls freely through the same distance are the same so that their ratio is obtained as,

  1.98m/s1.98m/s=1.00

Therefore, the ratio of the speed of the ball when the system is at the horizontal position and the speed of the ball that falls freely through the same distance is 1.00_.
