A force of 200 N acts tangentially on the rim of a wheel 25 cm in radius. (a) Find the torque. (b) Repeat if
the force makes an angle of 40 to a spoke of the wheel.
(a) The torque is given by:
τ = F × r
where F is the force and r is the radius of the wheel. Substituting the given values, we get:
τ = 200 N × 0.25 m
τ = 50 Nm
Therefore, the torque is 50 Nm.
(b) When the force makes an angle of 40 to a spoke of the wheel, the torque is given by:
τ = F × r × sinθ
where θ is the angle between the force and the radius of the wheel. Substituting the given values, we get:
τ = 200 N × 0.25 m × sin40
τ ≈ 77.2 Nm
Therefore, the torque is approximately 77.2 Nm.
A certain 8.0-kg wheel has a radius of gyration of 25 cm. (a) What is its moment of inertia? (6) How large a
torque is required to give it an angular acceleration of 3.0 rad/s?
(a) The moment of inertia of a wheel rotating about its axis of symmetry is given by:
I = k^2 × M
where k is the radius of gyration and M is the mass of the wheel. Substituting the given values, we get:
I = (0.25 m)^2 × 8.0 kg
I = 0.50 kg m^2
Therefore, the moment of inertia of the wheel is 0.50 kg m^2.
(b) The torque required to give the wheel an angular acceleration of 3.0 rad/s^2 can be calculated using the equation:
τ = I × α
where τ is the torque, I is the moment of inertia, and α is the angular acceleration. Substituting the given values, we get:
τ = 0.50 kg m^2 × 3.0 rad/s^2
τ = 1.5 Nm
Therefore, a torque of 1.5 Nm is required to give the wheel an angular acceleration of 3.0 rad/s^2.
Determine the constant torque that must be applied to a 50-kg flywheel, with radius of gyration 40 cm, to give it a frequency of 300 rpm in 10 s if it's initially at rest.
The frequency, f, of a rotating object is given by:
f = (1/2π) × (ω)
where ω is the angular velocity of the object. We can convert the given frequency of 300 rpm to radians per second:
ω = 2π × 300 rpm / 60
ω = 31.42 rad/s
The moment of inertia of the flywheel is given by:
I = k^2 × M
where k is the radius of gyration and M is the mass of the flywheel. Substituting the given values, we get:
I = (0.40 m)^2 × 50 kg
I = 8.0 kg m^2
To determine the required torque, we can use the rotational version of Newton's second law:
τ = I × α
where τ is the torque, I is the moment of inertia, and α is the angular acceleration. From the given information, we know that we want to reach an angular velocity of 31.42 rad/s in 10 seconds, so the angular acceleration required is:
α = ω / t
α = 31.42 rad/s / 10 s
α = 3.142 rad/s^2
Substituting the known values into the torque equation, we get:
τ = 8.0 kg m^2 × 3.142 rad/s^2
τ = 25.13 Nm
Therefore, a constant torque of 25.13 Nm must be applied to the flywheel to give it a frequency of 300 rpm in 10 s if it's initially at rest.
A 4.0-kg wheel of 20 cm radius of gyration is rotating at 360 rpm. The retarding frictional torque is 0.12 Nm. Compute the time it would take to coast to rest
We can start by calculating the initial angular velocity of the wheel, which is:
ω = 2π × 360 rpm / 60
ω = 37.7 rad/s
The moment of inertia of the wheel is given by:
I = k^2 × M
where k is the radius of gyration and M is the mass of the wheel. Substituting the given values, we get:
I = (0.20 m)^2 × 4.0 kg
I = 0.16 kg m^2
The retarding frictional torque can be written as:
τ = -ηω
where η is the frictional coefficient and τ is the torque. In this case, τ is given to be -0.12 Nm, so we can solve for η:
η = τ / ω
η = -0.12 Nm / 37.7 rad/s
η ≈ -0.00319 Nm s/rad
The negative sign of η indicates that it acts in the opposite direction to the initial rotation of the wheel, which is why it is retarding.
Using the equation of rotational motion:
ω = ω0 + αt
where ω0 is the initial angular velocity, α is the angular acceleration, and t is the time, we can solve for the time it takes for the wheel to come to rest. At rest, the final angular velocity is zero, so we have:
0 = ω0 + αt
Solving for t, we get:
t = -ω0 / α
The angular acceleration, α, can be determined from the retarding frictional torque and the moment of inertia:
τ = Iα
Solving for α and substituting the known values, we get:
α = τ / I
α = -0.12 Nm / 0.16 kg m^2
α = -0.75 rad/s^2
Substituting the calculated values of ω0 and α into the equation for time, we get:
t = -37.7 rad/s / (-0.75 rad/s^2)
t = 50.3 s
Therefore, it would take 50.3 seconds for the 4.0-kg wheel with radius of gyration 20 cm to coast to rest under the influence of a retarding frictional torque of 0.12 Nm.
How large a force is required to accelerate a 1300-kg car from rest to a speed of 20 m/s in a distance of
80 m?
We can use the equations of kinematics and dynamics to solve this problem.
First, we can determine the acceleration of the car using the kinematic equation:
v^2 = v0^2 + 2aΔx
where v is the final velocity, v0 is the initial velocity (zero in this case), a is the acceleration, and Δx is the distance traveled. Substituting the given values, we get:
(20 m/s)^2 = 0 + 2a(80 m)
a = 5 m/s^2
Now that we know the acceleration, we can use Newton's second law of motion to determine the force required:
F = ma
where F is the force, m is the mass of the car, and a is the acceleration calculated above. Substituting the given values, we get:
F = 1300 kg × 5 m/s^2
F = 6500 N
Therefore, a force of 6500 N (or approximately 650 kg) is required to accelerate the 1300-kg car from rest to a speed of 20 m/s in a distance of 80 m.
The following coplanar forces pull on a ring: 200 N at 30.0°, 500 N at 80.0°, 300 N at 240°, and an unknown
force. Find the magnitude and direction of the unknown force if the ring is to be in equilibrium.
For the ring to be in equilibrium, the vector sum of all the forces must be zero. We can break each of the given forces into its x- and y-components:
F1x = 200 N cos(30°) = 173.2 N
F1y = 200 N sin(30°) = 100 N
F2x = 500 N cos(80°) = 95.3 N
F2y = 500 N sin(80°) = 491 N
F3x = 300 N cos(240°) = -259.8 N
F3y = 300 N sin(240°) = -173.2 N
Using vector addition, we can find the magnitude and direction of the unknown force:
Fx = -F1x - F2x - F3x = -528.3 N
Fy = -F1y - F2y - F3y = -417.2 N
The vector sum of these two components is:
F = √(Fx^2 + Fy^2) = √(528.3^2 + 417.2^2) = 675 N
The direction of the force can be found using the inverse tangent function:
θ = tan^-1(Fy / Fx) = tan^-1(417.2 / 528.3) = 37.3°
Therefore, the magnitude of the unknown force is 675 N and its direction is 37.3°.
two people sit in a car that weighs 8000 N. The person in front weighs 700 N, while the one in the back weighs 900 N. Call the distance between the front and back wheels. 'The car's center of gravity is a distance 0.4001. behind the front wheels. How much force does each front wheel and each back
wheel support if the people are seated along the centerline of the car
The total weight of the car and the people is:
W_total = 8000 N + 700 N + 900 N = 9600 N
The weight is acting downwards and can be assumed to act at the center of gravity of the car-person system. The distance between the front wheels and the back wheels is given as d.
The weight is distributed between the front and back wheels, such that the forces on each set of wheels add up to the total weight. Since the people are seated along the centerline of the car, the weight distribution is symmetrical. Therefore, each set of wheels supports half the weight of the car-person system:
W_each = W_total / 2 = 4800 N
Since the weight is acting downwards and the car is not accelerating vertically, the forces on each set of wheels must add up to the weight. Therefore, the forces on each front wheel and each back wheel are:
F_front = W_each / 2 = 2400 N
F_back = W_each / 2 = 2400 N
Therefore, each front wheel and each back wheel support a force of 2400 N
Two people sit in a car that weighs 8000 N. The person in front weighs 700 N, while the one in the back weighs 900 N. Call L the distance between the front and back wheels. The car's center of gravity is a distance 0.400L behind the front wheels. How much force does each front wheel and each back wheel support if the people are seated along the centerline of the car
The total weight of the car and the people is:
W_total = 8000 N + 700 N + 900 N = 9600 N
The weight is acting downwards and can be assumed to act at the center of gravity of the car-person system. The distance between the front wheels and the back wheels is given as L, and the center of gravity is 0.4L behind the front wheels.
The weight is distributed between the front and back wheels, such that the forces on each set of wheels add up to the total weight. The weight distribution is unequal due to the offset position of the center of gravity.
We can use the principle of moments to determine the forces on the front and back wheels. Taking the front wheels as the pivot, the clockwise moment due to the weight of the car is:
M_front = W_total × 0.4L
Taking moments of the forces on the back wheels, we have:
M_back = F_back × L
where F_back is the force on each back wheel. Since the car is not rotating, the total moment must be zero:
M_front = M_back
Therefore, we can write:
W_total × 0.4L = F_back × L
Solving for F_back, we get:
F_back = W_total × 0.4
Substituting the given values, we get:
F_back = 9600 N × 0.4 = 3840 N
Since the weight is acting downwards and the car is not accelerating vertically, the forces on each set of wheels must add up to the weight. Therefore, the forces on each front wheel are:
F_front = (W_total - 2 × F_back) / 2
Substituting the given values, we get:
F_front = (9600 N - 2 × 3840 N) / 2 = 960 N
Therefore, each front wheel supports a force of 960 N, and each back wheel supports a force of 3840 N.
Two people. at the ends of a uniform beam that weighs 400 N. hold the beam at an angle of 25.0° to the horizontal. How arge a vertical force must each person furnish to the beam?
Assuming the beam is held in equilibrium, the net force and net torque on the beam must be zero.
Considering the forces, we can resolve the weight of the beam into its components parallel and perpendicular to the beam. The perpendicular component balances the vertical forces supplied by the people, and the parallel component is balanced by the tension in the beam.
The weight of the beam is given as 400 N, and the angle of the beam to the horizontal is 25.0°. Therefore, the perpendicular component is:
P = 400 N × cos(25.0°) = 361.6 N
Since the beam is held horizontally, we know that each person must supply the same vertical force, which we can calculate using the perpendicular component of the weight:
F_person = P / 2 = 361.6 N / 2 = 180.8 N
Therefore, each person must supply a vertical force of 180.8 N to keep the uniform beam in equilibrium at an angle of 25.0° to the horizontal.

(Note: we can also simplify Z U Y as simply the set of all integers, since all integers can be classified as either odd or even.)
|A|+|B| in sets
In set theory, |A| is used to represent the cardinality or number of elements in set A. Similarly, |B| represents the number of elements in set B.
Therefore, |A|+|B| represents the sum of the number of elements in set A and the number of elements in set B.
|A|-|B| in sets
In set theory, |A| is used to represent the cardinality or number of elements in set A, and |B| represents the number of elements in set B.
Therefore, |A|-|B| represents the difference between the number of elements in set A and the number of elements in set B. Specifically, it represents the number of elements in set A that are not in set B. If |A|-|B| is negative, it represents the number of elements in set B that are not in set A (i.e., the absolute value of |A|-|B| gives the number of elements that are unique to either set A or set B).
If A = {1,2,3,5,7, 11, 13, 17,19} and B = {1,4,7, 10, 13, 16, 19} are subsets of N, verify that:|AUB| = |A|+ |B|- |AnB|.
The sets A and B have the following elements:
A = {1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19}
B = {1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19}
To verify that |AUB| = |A| + |B| - |AnB|, we need to calculate the number of elements in each of these sets.
The union of sets A and B (AUB) is the set of all elements that are in either A or B (or in both). Therefore, we can list out all the unique elements in A and B:
AUB = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 13, 16, 17, 19}
