A wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis at the center of the wheel. A constant tangential force equal to 82.0 N is applied to the rim of the wheel. The wheel has radius 0.150 m . Starting from rest, the wheel has an angular speed of 12.8 rev/s after 3.88 s. What is the moment of inertia of the wheel?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The moment of inertia of the wheel is 0.593 kg-m².

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 82.0 N

Radius r = 0.150 m

Angular speed = 12.8 rev/s

Time = 3.88 s

We need to calculate the torque

Using formula of torque

[tex]\tau=F\times r[/tex]

[tex]\tau=82.0\times0.150[/tex]

[tex]\tau=12.3\ N-m[/tex]

Now, The angular acceleration

[tex]\dfrac{d\omega}{dt}=\dfrac{12.8\times2\pi}{3.88}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d\omega}{dt}=20.73\ rad/s^2[/tex]

We need to calculate the moment of inertia

Using relation between torque and moment of inertia

[tex]\tau=I\times\dfrac{d\omega}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]I=\dfrac{I}{\dfrac{d\omega}{dt}}[/tex]

[tex]I=\dfrac{12.3}{20.73}[/tex]

[tex]I= 0.593\ kg-m^2[/tex]

Hence, The moment of inertia of the wheel is 0.593 kg-m².
