The bar shown in figure below can rotate around the axis indicated by the dot counter clockwise.
In the figure below, the bar has moment of inertia 0.4 Kgm^2 and is spinning clockwise, around an axis passing through the depicted point and perpendicular to the plane of the page, with angular speed of 10 1/s (or 10 rad/s). The 4 N depicted force, generates a constant torque (which slows down the bar rotation) for 2 seconds. Calculate the magnitude of the applied torque. Calculate the angular speed of the torque at t = 2 s.

Problem 3 A 60.0-kgrunner runs clockwise around the edge of a horizontal turntable mounted on a vertical, frictionless axis through its center. The runner's velocity relative to the ground has magnitude 2.00 m/s. The turntable is rotating in the opposite direction (counterclockwise) with an angular velocity of magnitude 0.300 rad/s relative to the ground. The radius of the turntable is 2.90 m, and its moment of inertia about the axis of rotation is 80.0 kg m2. Questions 4 and 5...
Learning Goal:
To understand and apply the formula
τ=Iα to rigid objects rotating about a
fixed axis.
To find the acceleration a of a particle of mass
m, we use Newton's second law: F⃗
net=ma⃗ , where F⃗ net is the net force
acting on the particle.
To find the angular acceleration α of a rigid object
rotating about a fixed axis, we can use a similar formula:
τnet=Iα, where τnet=∑τ
is the net torque acting on the object and...
The moment of inertia of the human body about an axis through
its center of mass is important in the application of biomechanics
to sports such as diving and gymnastics. We can measure the body's
moment of inertia in a particular position while a person remains
in that position on a horizontal turntable, with the bodys center
of mass on the turntable's rotational axis. The turntable with the
person on it is then accelerated from rest by a torque that...
Consider a turntable to be a circular disk of moment of inertia 0.142 kg⋅m2 rotating at a constant angular velocity 4.80 rad/s2 around an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the disk (the disk's "primary axis of symmetry"). The axis of the disk is vertical and the disk is supported by frictionless bearings. The motor of the turntable is off, so there is no external torque being applied to the axis. Another disk (a record) is...
