Question

Attached pulleys A and B of radius 15 cm and 10 cm are nted on a fixed axle and wound with cords under tension and 63 N. The total moment of inertia is 0.4 kg.m^2. Find the time to reach angular velocity 18 rad/s from rest. The rotation is (clockwise / counterclockwise ) Explain: when k = 6 J, Find angular velocity + angular displacement Find the force keeping the axle in place. If the experiment was repeated with the axle removed, the answer to (a) would be (the same / greater / less. How much tension in cord B would be needed to prevent rotation against the 50-N tension in cord A?

Explanation / Answer

a) Net torque acting on the pulley, Tnet = 63*0.1 - 50*0.15

= -1.2 N.m

negative sign indictaes clockwise torque.

angular acceleration, alfa = Tnet/I

= 1.2/0.4

= 3 rad/s^2

Apply, w = wo + alfa*t

==> t = (w - wo)/alfa

= (18 - 0)/3

= 6 s <<<<<<<<<----------------Answer

b) clockwise <<<<<<<<<----------------Answer


c) let Fx is the force on axle

Apply, Fnetx = 0

50 + 63 - Fx = 0

Fx = 113 N <<<<<<<<<----------------Answer


d) Net torque ahould be zero.

50*0.15 - F*0.1 = 0

==> F = 50*0.15/0.1

= 75 N <<<<<<<<<----------------Answer
