A 2.8 kg grinding wheel is in the form of a solid cylinder of radius 0.1 m. a) What constant torque will bring it from rest to an angular velocity of 120 rad/s in 2.5 s. b) Through what angle has it turned during that time? c) What is the work done by the torque?

Answer:

a) τ =  0.672 N m , b) θ = 150 rad , c) W = 100.8 J

Explanation:

a) for this part let's start by finding angular acceleration, when the angular velocity stops it is zero (w = 0)

       w = w₀ + α t

       α = -w₀ / t

       α = 120 / 2.5

       α = 48 rad / s²

The moment of inertia of a cylinder is

       I = ½ M R²

Let's calculate the torque

      τ = I α

      τ = ½ M R² α

      τ = ½ 2.8 0.1² 48

      τ =  0.672 N m

b) we look for the angle by kinematics

      θ = w₀ t + ½ α t2

      θ = ½ α t²

      θ = ½ 48 2.5²

      θ = 150 rad

c) work in angular movement

      W = τ θ

      W = 0.672 150

      W = 100.8 J

The constant torque that will bring this grinding wheel from rest is 0.672 Newton.

Given the following data:

Mass = 2.8 kg.

Radius = 0.1 m.

Initial angular velocity = 0 rad/s (since it's starting from rest).

Final angular velocity = 120 rad/s.

Time = 2.5 seconds.

How to calculate the constant torque.

First of all, we would determine the angular acceleration of this grinding wheel by using this formula:

[tex]\alpha =\frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t} \\\\\alpha =\frac{120 - 0}{2.5}\\\\\alpha =48\;rad/s^2[/tex]

For the torque:

[tex]\tau = I\alpha \\\\\tau =\frac{1}{2} mr^2\alpha \\\\\tau =\frac{1}{2} \times 2.8 \times 0.1^2 \times 48[/tex]

Torque = 0.672 Newton.

How to calculate the angle.

Mathematically, the angle is given by the second equation of kinematics:

[tex]\theta = \omega_it + \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2\\\\\theta = 0(2.5) + \frac{1}{2} \times (48)\times 2.5^2\\\\\theta =24 \times 6.25[/tex]

Angle = 150 rad.

How to calculate the work done by the torque.

Mathematically, the work done by the torque is given by this formula:

[tex]W = \tau \theta\\\\W= 0.672 \times 150[/tex]

W = 100.8 Joules.
