What is the angular momentum vector of the rotating bar in

Short Answer

Expert verified

Therefore the angular momentum of the rotating bar is2.1kgm2sk^

Step by step solution

01

Step :1 Introduction 

The rotation between angular momentum and angular velocity of the bar can be

L=Iω

Here, lis the moment of inertia of the bar and ωis the angular velocity of the bar, and the bar is rotating counter clockwise the angular velocity is in thek^direction.

Step :2 Explanation

The rotating bar is as shown in the below figure:

03

Step : 3 Angular velocity 

The mass of bar is 500gconvert the units of mass from gtokg

M=500g

=(500g)1kg1000g

=0.5kg

The angular velocity of the bar is 120rpm.Convert the units of bar from rpmandrads

ω=120revmin2πrad1rev1min60s

=12.6k^rads

The moment of inertia lcan be found using the equation for a thin rod around the center:

I=112Mm2

Substitute 0.5kgfor 2.0mfor lin the above frmula t solve the mooemnt of inertia of the bar

I=112(0.5kg)(2.0m)2

=0.167kgm2

Substitute 0.167kgm2for/and12.6k^radsforωin equation L=Iωto solve the angular momentum of the rotating bar.

L=Iω

=0.167kgm212.6k^rads

=2.1k^kgm2s

The angular momentum is out of the page (counterclockwise rotation )

Blocks of mass m1 and m2 are connected by a massless string that passes over the pulley in Figure P12.65. The pulley turns on frictionless bearings. Mass m1 slides on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Mass m2 is released while the blocks are at rest.
a. Assume the pulley is massless. Find the acceleration of m1 and the tension in the string. This is a Chapter 7 review problem.
b. Suppose the pulley has mass mp and radius R. Find the acceleration of m1 and the tensions in the upper and lower portions of the string. Verify that your answers agree with part a if you set mp = 0.
