A thin, 100 g disk with a diameter of 8.0 cm rotates about an axis through its center with 0.15 J of kinetic energy. What is the speed of a point on the rim

Respuesta :

Given Information:

kinetic energy = E = 0.15 J  

mass = m = 100g = 0.1 kg

diameter = d = 8.0 cm = 0.08 m

Required Information:

Speed = v = ?

Answer:

v = 2.44 m/s

Explanation:

First convert diameter into radius

r = d/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m

The moment of inertia of disc is given by

I = 0.5mr²

Where m is the mass and r is the radius of the disk

I = 0.5(0.1)(0.04)²

I = 0.00008 kg.m²

and since we are dealing with rotational motion then rotational kinetic energy is given by

E  =  0.5 I ω²

we have to separate ω

ω² = E/0.5 I

ω = √E/0.5 I

ω = √0.15/0.5(0.00008)

ω = 61.23 rad/sec

Finally we know that speed is given as

v = ω r

v = 61.23 (0.04)

v = 2.44 m/s

Therefore, the speed of a point on the rim  is 2.44 m/s

Lanuel

The speed of a point on the rim is equal to 2.45 meters per seconds.

Given the following data:

  • Mass of disk = 100 g
  • Diameter of disk = 8 cm
  • Kinetic energy = 0.15 Joules

Conversion:

Diameter of disk = 8 cm to m = [tex]\frac{8}{100}[/tex] = 0.08 meters

Mass of disk = 100 g to kg = [tex]\frac{100}{1000}[/tex] = 0.1 kg

Radius = [tex]\frac{diameter}{2} = \frac{0.08}{2}[/tex] = 0.04 m

To find the speed of a point on the rim:

First of all, we would determine the moment of inertia (I) of the disk.

[tex]I = \frac{1}{2} mr^2\\\\I = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.1 \times 0.04^2\\\\I = 0.05 \times 0.0016[/tex]

Moment of inertia, I = 0.00008 [tex]kgm^2[/tex]

Next, we would solve for angular velocity from the rotational kinetic energy of the disk:

[tex]E_R = \frac{1}{2} Iw^2\\\\0.15 = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.00008 \times w^2\\\\0.3 = 0.00008w^2\\\\w^2 = \frac{0.3}{0.00008} \\\\w^2 = 3750\\\\w = \sqrt{3750}[/tex]

Angular velocity, w = 61.24 rad/s

Now, we can find the speed:

[tex]Speed = rw\\\\Speed = 0.04 \times 61.24[/tex]

Speed = 2.45 m/s
