A light, flexible cable is wrapped around a solid cylinder with mass 3.3 kg and a radius of 0.8 meters. The cylinder rotates on a frictionless pin. The free end of the cable is tied to a 4.9 kg box that is initially 2.9 meters above the floor.
Determine the angular acceleration of the cylinder. (+ CCW)

Answer:

[tex]9.16rad/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass,[tex]m_1=3.3 kg[/tex]

Radius,r=0.8 m

[tex]m_2=4.9 kg[/tex]

Height,h=2.9 m

We have to find the angular acceleration of the cylinder.

According to question

[tex]4.9g-T=4.9a[/tex]

[tex]Tr=I\alpha[/tex]

Where

[tex]\alpha=\frac{a}{r}[/tex]

[tex]Tr=\frac{1}{2}m_1ra[/tex]

[tex]T=\frac{1}{2}m_1a=\frac{1}{2}(3.3)a[/tex]

Substitute the value

[tex]4.9g-\frac{1}{2}(3.3a)=4.9a[/tex]

[tex]4.9\times 9.8=4.9a+\frac{3.3a}{2}[/tex]

Where [tex]g=9.8 m/s^2[/tex]

[tex]48.02=a(4.9+1.65)=6.55a[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{48.02}{6.55}=7.33m/s^2[/tex]

Angular acceleration,[tex]\alpha=\frac{a}{r}=\frac{7.33}{0.8}=9.16rad/s^2[/tex]
