) A 1.53-kg bucket hangs on a rope wrapped around a pulley of mass 7.07 kg and radius 66 cm.   This pulley is frictionless in its axle, and has the shape of a solid uniform disk. After the bucket has been released, what is the angular acceleration of the pulley?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Gravitational acceleration = g = 9.81 m/s2

Mass of the bucket = m = 1.53 kg

Mass of the pulley = M = 7.07 kg

Radius of the pulley = R = 66 cm = 0.66 m

Moment of inertia of the pulley = I

I = MR2/2

I = (7.07)(0.66)2/2

I = 1.54 kg.m2

Tension in the rope = T

Angular acceleration of the pulley =

Acceleration of the bucket = a

a = R

For the bucket,

ma = mg - T

T = mg - ma

T = m(g - R)

For the pulley,

I = TR

I = m(g - R)R

(1.54) = (1.53)(0.66)(9.81 - 0.66)

1.54 = 9.906 - 0.666

= 4.489 rad/s2

Angular acceleration of the pulley = 4.489 rad/s2

A rope of negligible mass hangs vertically on each side of a pulley. The pulley, which has mass 1.00 kg and radius 20 cm, can be modeled as a thin uniform cylinder. One end of the rope is tied to a box of mass 10.00 kg; this box is resting on the ground. The other end of the rope dangles freely. Then a 15.00 kg monkey, who is initially standing on a ledge 2.00 m above the floor, grabs the...

A string is wrapped around a pulley with a radius of 2.0 cm and no appreciable friction in its axle. The pulley is initially not turning. A constant force of 50 N is applied to the string, which does not slip, causing the pulley to rotate and the string to unwind. If the string unwinds 1.2 m in 4.9 s, what is the moment of inertia of the pulley?
