We wrap a light, nonstretching cable around a 8.00 kg solid cylinder with diameter of 30.0 cm. The cylinder rotates with negligible friction about a stationary horizontal axis. We tie the free end of the cable to a 13.0 kg block and release the block from rest. As the block falls, the cable unwinds without stretching or slipping. How far will the mass have to descend to give the cylinder 510 J of kinetic energy?

Answer:

h = 16.67m

Explanation:

If the kinetic energy of the cylinder is 510J:

[tex]Kc=510=1/2*Ic*\omega c^2[/tex]

[tex]\omega c=\sqrt{510*2/Ic}[/tex]

Where the inertia is given by:

[tex]Ic=1/2*m_c*R_c^2=1/2*(8)*(0.15)^2=0.0225kg.m^2[/tex]

Replacing this value:

[tex]\omega c=106.46rad/s[/tex]

Speed of the block will therefore be:

[tex]V_b=\omega_c*R_c=106.46*0.15=15.969m/s[/tex]

By conservation of energy:

Eo = Ef

Eo = 0

[tex]Ef = 510+1/2*m_b*V_b^2-m_b*g*h[/tex]

So,

[tex]0 = 510+1/2*m_b*V_b^2-m_b*g*h[/tex]

Solving for h we get:

h=16.67m

The mass would have to descend from a height of 13.01 meters.

Given the following data:

  • Kinetic energy = 510 Joules.
  • Mass of cylinder = 8.00 kg.
  • Diameter = 30.0 cm.
  • Mass of block = 13.00 kg.

How to calculate the height.

First of all, we would determine the moment of inertia for the solid cylinder by using this formula:

[tex]I=\frac{1}{2} mr^2\\\\I=\frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 0.15^2\\\\I=4 \times 0.0225[/tex]

I = 0.09 [tex]Kgm^2[/tex]

Next, we would determine its angular velocity by using this formula:

[tex]K.E =\frac{1}{2} I\omega^2\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{I} } \\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 510}{0.09} }\\\\\omega=\sqrt{11,333.33} \\\\\omega=106.46\;rad/s.[/tex]

For the speed:

[tex]V=r \omega\\\\V= 0.15 \times 106.46[/tex]

V = 15.97 m/s.

Now, we would calculate the height by applying the law of conservation of energy:

[tex]P.E = K.E\\\\mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\2gh=v^2\\\\h=\frac{v^2}{2g} \\\\h=\frac{15.97^2}{2\times 9.8} \\\\h=\frac{255}{19.6}[/tex]

h = 13.01 meters.
