Question

(12%) Problem 7: A rod of mass M = 130 g and length L = 47 cm can rotate about a hinge at its left end and is initially at rest. A putty ball of mass m1 = 19 g, moving with speed V = 9 m/s, strikes the rod at angle = 34° a distance D = L/4 from the end and sticks to the rod after the collision ©theexpertta.com 33% Part (a) What is the total moment of inertia, 1, with respect to the hinge, of the rod-ball-system after the collision?

Explanation / Answer

(a) Itotal = (ML^2 / 3) + MD^2

Option 4

(b) V cos theta responsible for rotation

V" = V cos (34) = 9 x 0.829037573 = 7.46 m/s

Now

V" = Rw

w = V" / R

w = 7.46 / (L/4)

w = (7.46 x 4) / .47

w = 63.48 rad/s

(c) KEr = 1/2 I w^2

I = (ML^2 / 3) + mD^2 = (ML^2 / 3) + (m(L/4))^2 = (ML^2 / 3) + (mL^2/16)

I = ((.130 x .47^2 / 3)) + (.(019 x .47^2 / 16)) = 0.00983465208

KEr = .5 x 0.00983465208 x (63.48)^2

KEr = 19.81 J
