A block (mass = 61.2 kg) is hanging from a massless cord that is wrapped around a pulley (moment of inertia = 1/2MR2 kg · m2, where M = 14.2 kg is the mass of the pulley and R=1.5 m is its radius ), as the drawing shows. Initially the pulley is prevented from rotating and the block is stationary. Then, the pulley is allowed to rotate as the block falls. The cord does not slip relative to the pulley as the block falls. Assume that the radius of the cord around the pulley remains constant at a value of r=R=1.5 m during the block's descent, and the distance of the block at initial position to the floor is 8.0 m. What is the angular velocity in round per minute when the block drops to the floor? Use g = 10 m/s2.

The angular velocity is $w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is m = 61.2kg

The of the pulley is M = 14.2 kg

The radius of the pulley is R = 1.5m

The radius of the cord around the pulley is r = 1.5 m

The distance of the block to the floor is d = 8.0 m

From the question we are told that the moment of inertia of the pulley is

$I = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 kg \cdot m^2$

Substituting value

$I = \frac{1}{2} * 14.2 * (1.5)^2$

$I = 15.975 kg \cdot m^2$

Using the Newtons law we can express the force acting on the vertical axis as

ma = mg -T

=> T = mg -ma

Now when the pulley is rotated that torque generated on the massless cord as a r result of the tension T and the radius of the cord around the pulley is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I \alpha$

Here $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

Here $\tau$ is the torque which can be equivalent to

$\tau = T r$

Substituting this above

$Tr = I \alpha$

Substituting for T

$(mg - ma ) r = I\ r \alpha$

Here is the linear acceleration which is mathematically represented as

$a = r\alpha$

$(mg - m(r\alpha ) ) r = I\ r \alpha$

$mgr = I\alpha + m(r\alpha ) r$

$mgr = \alpha [ I + mr^2]$

making $\alpha$ the subject

$\alpha = \frac{mgr}{I -mr ^2}$

Substituting values

$\alpha = \frac{61.2 * 1.5 * 9.8}{15.975 + (61.2 ) * (1.5)^2}$

$\alpha =5.854 rad /s^2$

Now substituting into the equation above to obtain the acceleration

a = 5.854 * 1.5

a=8.78 m/s^2

This acceleration is $a = \frac{v}{t}$

and v is the linear velocity with is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

Substituting this into the formula acceleration

$a = \frac{d}{t^2}$

making t the subject

$t = \sqrt{\frac{d}{a} }$

substituting value

$t = \sqrt{\frac{8}{8.78}}$

$t = 0.9545 \ s$

Now the linear velocity is

$v = \frac{8}{0.9545}$

v = 8.38 m/s

The angular velocity is

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

$w = \frac{8.38}{1.5}$

w = 5.59 rad/s

Generally 1 radian is equal to 0.159155 rounds or turns

So 5.59 radian is equal to x

Now x is mathematically obtained as

$x = \frac{5.59 * 0.159155}{1}$

$= 0.8892 \ rounds$

Also

60 second = 1 minute

So 1 second = z

Now z is mathematically obtained as

$z = \frac{ 1}{60}$

z $= 0.01667 \ minute$

Therefore

$w = \frac{0.8892}{0.01667}$

$w = 53.35 \ rounds /minute$

1. study the scenario. the particles in some system are moving around quickly. a few minutes later, the particles are moving, on average, more slowly. how does this change in motion affect the temperature of the system? the temperature of the system did not change. the speed of the particles does not affect temperature, the number of particles affects the temperature.the temperature of the system is lower now than it was initially. faster moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.the temperature of the system is higher now than it was initially. slower moving particles result in a higher temperature for the system.the temperature of the system did not change. the speed of the particles has no effect on the temperature, only the type of atom affects the temperature.
