Question

Consider the 13.0 kg motorcycle wheel shown in Figure 9.29. Assume it to be approximately an annular ring with an inner radius of R_1 = 0.280 m and an outer radius of R_2 = 0.400 m. The motorcycle is on its center stand, so that the wheel can spin freely. (a) If the drive chain exerts a force of 2060 N at a radius of 5.00 cm, what is the angular acceleration of the wheel? rad/s^2 (b)What is the tangential acceleration of a point on the outer edge of the tire? m/s^2 (c) How long, starting from rest, does it take to reach an angular velocity of 80.0 rad/s? s

Explanation / Answer

(a) ans

first we find the mass of wheel

F=mg

2060=m*9.8

mass of the wheel =210.2 kg

now we find the angular acceleration

F=mr(angular acceleration)

2060=210.2*5*10^-2 (angular acceleration )

angular acceleration =196 rad/s^2

(b) ans

the tengential acceleration at=r2(angular acceleration)=0.400*196=78.4 m/s^2

(c) ans

angular velocity w=80 rad/s

therefore the time =angular velocity/angular acceleration=80/196=0.41 sec
