Acord is wrapped around the rim of a solid uniform wheel 0.300 m in radius and of mass 8.00 kg. a steady horizontal pull of 34.0 n to the right is exerted on the cord, pulling it off tangentially from the wheel. the wheel is mounted on frictionless bearings on a horizontal axle through its center.

A. α = 94.4 rad/s

B. a = 28.32 m/s

C. N = 34N

D. α = 94.4 rad/s

    a = 28.32 m/s

     N =  44.4  N

Explanation:

part A:

using:

∑T = Iα

where T is the torque, I is the moment of inertia and α is the angular momentum.

firt we will find the moment of inertia I as:

I =

Where M is the mass and R is the radius of the wheel, then:

I =

I = 0.36 kg*m^2

Replacing on the initial equation and solving for α, we get::

∑T = Iα

Fr = Iα

34 N =  0.36α

α = 94.4 rad/s

part B

we need to use this equation :

a = αr

where a is the aceleration of the cord that has already been pulled off and r is the radius of the wheel, so replacing values, we get:

a = (94.4)(0.3 m)

a = 28.32 m/s

part C

Using the laws of newton, we know that:

N = T

where N is the force that the axle exerts on the wheel part and T is the tension of the cord

so:

N = 34N

part D

The anly answer that change is the answer of the part D, so, aplying laws of newton, it would be:

-Mg + N +T = 0

Then, solving for N, we get:

N = -T+Mg

N = -34 + (8 kg)(9.8)

N =  44.4  N

acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (20-120)= -100 m/s.

1.5 min = 90 sec

acceleration = -100/90 = -1.11 m/s^2.

we don't care about the 150kg or the 2,500 meters. they don't make any difference.
