\alpha = ?

Part B

Calculate the torque required to cause this acceleration.

torque = ?

Respuesta :

Answer:

(a) ∝ = 18.84 rad/s^2

(b) 0.297 N m

Explanation:

m = 0.35 kg

r = 0.3 m

fo = 0 rps

f = 24 rps

t = 8 s

(A)

ωo = 2 x π x fo = 0

ω = 2 π f = 2 x 3.14 x 24 = 150.72 rad/s

Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

ω = ωo + ∝ t

Where, ∝ is the rotational acceleration

150.72 = 0 + 8 ∝

∝ = 18.84 rad/s^2

(B) Torque = Moment of inertia x rotational acceleration

Moment of inertia of turn table = 0.5 x mass x radius²  

I = 0.5 x 0.35 x 0.3 x 0.3 = 0.01575 kg m²

Torque = 0.01575 x 18.84 = 0.297 N m

The rotational acceleration of the turn table is 18.85 rad/s².

The torque required to cause the acceleration is 0.298 Nm.

Rotational acceleration of the turn table

The rotational acceleration of the turn table is calculated as follows;

[tex]\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{t} = \frac{24(2\pi) - 0}{8} = 18.85\ rad/s^2[/tex]

Moment of inertia of the turn table

The moment of inertia of the turn table is calculated as follows;

[tex]I = \frac{1}{2} mr^2\\\\I = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.35 \times 0.3^2\\\\I = 0.0158 \ kgm^2[/tex]

Torque required

The torque required to cause the acceleration is calculated as follows;

[tex]\tau = I \alpha\\\\\tau = 0.0158 \times 18.85\\\\\tau = 0.298 \ Nm[/tex]
