MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER
A supertanker uses a windlass (a type of winch) like the one shown in the figure below to hoist its 21,200-kg anchor. Determine the force that must be exerted on the
outside wheel to lift the anchor at constant speed, neglecting friction and assuming the anchor is out of the water.

Respuesta :

The force that must be exerted on the outside wheel to lift the anchor at constant speed is 6.925 x 10⁵ N.

Force exerted outside the wheel

The force exerted on the outside of the wheel can be determined by applying the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below.

∑τ = 0

  • Let the distance traveled by the load = 1.5 m
  • Let the radius of the wheel or position of the force = 0.45 m

∑τ = R(mg) - r(F)

rF = R(mg)

0.45F = 1.5(21,200 x 9.8)

F = 6.925 x 10⁵ N.

Thus, the force that must be exerted on the outside wheel to lift the anchor at constant speed is 6.925 x 10⁵ N.
