(e) If the wheel rolls along the ground without slipping, the instantaneous velocity of the atoms of the object that are momentarily in contact with the ground is zero. This zero-velocity condition implies that , where is the angular speed of the object, since the instantaneous speed of the contact point is .

Answer:

distance moved by the center of the wheel during time [tex]t_1 = 10 \ s[/tex]  to   [tex]t_2 = 15\ s[/tex]  is  145.32 m

Explanation:

Given that :

The radius of the wheel  R =  28 cm

Initial angular speed of the wheel [tex]\theta_o = 16 rev/s[/tex]

= [tex]16*\frac{2}{1} *\frac{\pi}{1}rad/s[/tex]

= [tex]32 \pi\ rad/s[/tex]

= 100.5 rad/s

At time t = 9 s ;  the angle  rotated by wheel [tex]\theta_o = \omega_o t[/tex]

= 32 π × 9

= 905 rad

At time [tex]t_1 = 10 \ s[/tex]; the angular speed is definitely the same and the initial velocity [tex]\omega_1[/tex] is [tex]\omega_o = 32 \pi \ rads[/tex]

However ; after time  [tex]t_1 = 10 \ s[/tex] ; the angular acceleration of the wheel ∝ = 1.3 rad/s²

At time [tex]t_2 = 15\ s[/tex] ; angular speed of wheel [tex]\omega_2 = \omega_1 + \alpha \delta \ t[/tex]

[tex]\omega_2 = 32 \pi + 1.3( 15 - 10)[/tex]

[tex]\omega_2 =107 \ rad/s[/tex]

Now; the angle rotated by the wheel during time  [tex]t_1 = 10 \ s[/tex]  to   [tex]t_2 = 15\ s[/tex]  is expressed as:

[tex]\theta_1 = \omega_1(t_2-t_1)+ \frac{1}{2} \alpha (t_2-t_1)^2\\\\\theta_1 = 32 \pi (15-10) + \frac{1}{2}*1.3*(15-10)^2\\\\\theta_1 = 519 \ rad[/tex]

From the question; we are being told that :

This zero-velocity condition implies that vCM=ω⁢R, where ω is the angular speed of the object, since the instantaneous speed of the contact point is vCM-ω⁢R.

i.e [tex]v_{cm} = R \omega[/tex]

then we can say :

acceleration [tex]a_{cm} = R \alpha[/tex]    and

linear distance [tex]s = R \theta[/tex]    indicating   how far did the center of the wheel move

So; distance moved by the center of the wheel during time [tex]t_1 = 10 \ s[/tex]  to   [tex]t_2 = 15\ s[/tex]  is ;

[tex]s = R \theta[/tex]

= 0.28 × 519

s = 145.32 m

Therefore; distance moved by the center of the wheel during time [tex]t_1 = 10 \ s[/tex]  to   [tex]t_2 = 15\ s[/tex]  is  145.32 m
