|---|---|---|
| Part (a): Determine the final angular speed when power returns. | ||
| 1 | \( v_i = 500\,\text{rpm} \times \frac{2\pi\,\text{rad}}{60\,\text{s}} = \frac{500\times 2\pi}{60} = \frac{50\pi}{3}\,\text{rad/s} \) | Convert the initial speed from revolutions per minute to radians per second. |
| 2 | \( \Delta \theta = 200\,\text{rev} \times 2\pi = 400\pi\,\text{rad} \) | Calculate the total angular displacement during the 30 s power outage (each revolution is \(2\pi\) rad). |
| 3 | \( \Delta \theta = \frac{1}{2}(v_i + v_x)\,t \) | Use the kinematic equation for constant angular acceleration relating displacement, initial and final speeds over time \(t = 30\,s\). |
| 4 | \( v_x = \frac{2\Delta \theta}{t} – v_i = \frac{2(400\pi)}{30} – \frac{50\pi}{3} = \frac{800\pi}{30} – \frac{50\pi}{3} \) | Solve for the final angular speed \(v_x\) after 30 s. |
| 5 | \( \frac{800\pi}{30} = \frac{80\pi}{3}, \quad v_x = \frac{80\pi}{3} – \frac{50\pi}{3} = \frac{30\pi}{3} = 10\pi\,\text{rad/s} \) | Simplify the expression to obtain \(v_x\). This is equivalent to \(10\pi\,rad/s\) which can be converted to \(300\,rpm\) if desired. |
| 6 | \( \boxed{v_x = 10\pi\,\text{rad/s}} \) | Final answer for part (a): the flywheel spins at \(10\pi\,rad/s\) when power returns. |
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| Part (b): Determine the time to stop and total revolutions if power did not return. | ||
| 1 | \( \alpha = \frac{v_x – v_i}{t} = \frac{10\pi – \frac{50\pi}{3}}{30} = \frac{\frac{30\pi – 50\pi}{3}}{30} = -\frac{20\pi}{90} = -\frac{2\pi}{9}\,\text{rad/s}^2 \) | Determine the constant angular deceleration \(\alpha\) using the change in angular velocity over 30 s. |
| 2 | \( 0 = v_i + \alpha T_{\text{stop}} \quad \Rightarrow \quad T_{\text{stop}} = -\frac{v_i}{\alpha} \) | Set the final angular velocity to zero to solve for the total stopping time \(T_{\text{stop}}\) from the moment of power failure. |
| 3 | \( T_{\text{stop}} = -\frac{\frac{50\pi}{3}}{-\frac{2\pi}{9}} = \frac{50\pi}{3} \times \frac{9}{2\pi} = 75\,\text{s} \) | Simplify to find that the flywheel takes 75 s to come to a complete stop. |
| 4 | \( \Delta \theta_{\text{total}} = \frac{v_i + 0}{2}T_{\text{stop}} = \frac{\frac{50\pi}{3}}{2} \times 75 = \frac{50\pi\times75}{6} = 625\pi\,\text{rad} \) | Calculate the total angular displacement using the average angular speed during deceleration. |
| 5 | \( \text{Revolutions} = \frac{625\pi}{2\pi} = 312.5\,\text{rev} \) | Convert radians to revolutions since \(2\pi\) rad correspond to one complete revolution. |
| 6 | \( \boxed{T_{\text{stop}} = 75\,\text{s} \quad \text{and} \quad \text{Total Revolutions} = 312.5\,\text{rev}} \) | Final answers for part (b): the flywheel stops in 75 s making a total of 312.5 revolutions. |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
The figure above shows a uniform beam of length \( L \) and mass \( M \) that hangs horizontally and is attached to a vertical wall. A block of mass \( M \) is suspended from the far end of the beam by a cable. A support cable runs from the wall to the outer edge of the beam. Both cables are of negligible mass. The wall exerts a force \( F_w \) on the left end of the beam. For which of the following actions is the magnitude of the vertical component of \( F_w \) smallest?
A construction worker spins a square sheet of metal of mass 0.040 kg with an angular acceleration of 10.0 rad/s2 on a vertical spindle (pin). What are the dimensions of the sheet if the net torque on the sheet is 1.00 N·m? Assume that the moment of inertia of a rectangle is [katex] I = \frac{1}{12}M(a^2+b^2) [/katex]
A uniform solid cylinder of mass [katex] M [/katex] and radius [katex] R [/katex] is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A massless string is attached to the cylinder and is wrapped around it. The string is then pulled with a constant force [katex] F [/katex] , causing the cylinder to rotate about its center of mass. After the cylinder has rotated through an angle [katex] \theta [/katex], what is the kinetic energy of the cylinder in terms of [katex] F [/katex] and [katex] \theta [/katex]?
The angular velocity of a rotating disk of radius 20 cm increases from 1 rad/s to 3 rad/s in 0.5 s. What is the linear tangential acceleration of a point on the rim of the disk during this time interval?
A car is moving up the side of a circular roller coaster loop of radius \( 12 \) \( \text{m} \). The angular velocity is \( 1.8 \) \( \text{rad/s} \) and angular acceleration is \( -0.82 \) \( \text{rad/s}^2 \). The car is at the same elevation as the center of the loop. Find the magnitude and direction (relative to the horizontal) of the acceleration.
Part (a): \(\boxed{10\pi\,\text{rad/s}}\) (which is equivalent to 300 rpm).\nPart (b): \(\boxed{75\,\text{s}}\) to come to a complete stop with a total of \(\boxed{312.5\,\text{rev}}\).

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]
