| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \[I_{cm}=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\] | Rotational inertia of a solid disk about its center is \( \frac{1}{2}MR^{2} \). |
| 2 | \[I_{cm}=\frac{1}{2}(2\,\text{kg})(4\,\text{m})^{2}=16\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\] | Substitute \(M=2\,\text{kg}\) and \(R=4\,\text{m}\). |
| 3 | \[\boxed{I_{cm}=16\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}}\] | Final answer for part (a). |
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \[I=I_{cm}+Md^{2}\] | Use the parallel-axis theorem; \(d\) is the perpendicular distance from the center. |
| 2 | \[I=16+ (2)(0.5)^{2}=16+0.5=16.5\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\] | Insert \(I_{cm}=16\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\), \(M=2\,\text{kg}\), and \(d=0.5\,\text{m}\). |
| 3 | \[\boxed{I=16.5\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}}\] | Final answer for part (b). |
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \[I=I_{cm}+Md^{2}\] | Apply the parallel-axis theorem again. |
| 2 | \[I=16+ (2)(3.75)^{2}=16+28.125=44.125\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\] | Substitute \(d=3.75\,\text{m}\) along with previous values. |
| 3 | \[\boxed{I=44.125\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}}\] | Final answer for part (c). |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
An airliner arrives at the terminal, and the engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angular velocity of \( 2000 \) \( \text{rad/s} \). The engine’s rotation slows with an angular acceleration of magnitude \( 80.0 \) \( \text{rad/s}^2 \).
Four identical lead balls with large mass are connected by rigid but very light rods in the square configuration shown in the preceding figure. The balls are rotated about the three labeled axes. Which of the following correctly ranks the rotational inertia \(I\) of the balls about each axis?
A ice skater that is spinning in circles has an initial rotational inertia Ii. You can approximate her shape to be a cylinder. She is spinning with velocity ωi. As she extends her arms she her rotational inertia changes by a factor of x and her angular velocity changes by a factor of y. Which one of the following options best describe x and y.
A windmill blade with a rotational inertia of \( 6.0 \) \( \text{kg} \cdot \text{m}^2 \) has an initial angular velocity of \( 8 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) in the clockwise direction. It is then given an angular acceleration of \( 4 \) \( \text{rad/s}^2 \) in the clockwise direction for \( 10 \) seconds. What is the change in rotational kinetic energy of the blade over this time interval?
Pulleys \( X \) and \( Y \) are each attached to a block by a string that wraps around the pulley. Both blocks are released and have the same linear acceleration \( a \). As the blocks fall, the pulleys rotate about their centers. Pulley \( Y \) has a larger radius than Pulley \( X \). How does the angular acceleration \( \alpha_X \) of Pulley \( X \) compare to the angular acceleration \( \alpha_Y \) of Pulley \( Y \)?

\(16.5\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\)
\(44.125\,\text{kg}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\)

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
