A roundabout in a fairground requires an input power of 2.5 kW when operating at a constant angular velocity of 0.47 rad s–1 . (a) Show that the frictional torque in the system is about 5 kN m. (3) 1. (b) When the power is switched off, the roundabout decelerates uniformly because the

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the roundabout is rotating with uniform velocity ,

input power = frictional power

frictional power = 2.5 kW

frictional torque x angular velocity = 2.5 kW

frictional torque x .47 = 2.5 kW

frictional torque = 2.5 / .47 kN .m

= 5.32 kN . m

= 5 kN.m

b )

When power is switched off , it will decelerate because of frictional torque .
