    What is the final angular velocity when two rotating disks are pushed together?

    Homework Statement Two disks are rotating about an axis common to both. The first disk has moment of inertia I and angular velocity ω. The second disk has moment of inertia 2I and angular velocity \frac{ω}{2} Both rotate in same direction If both disks are pushed into each other what is the...

    Calculating Moment of Inertia for Square Particle System

    Homework Statement There are four masses (particles) with a mass of 30gr each and they are at the vertices of a square that has each side with a length of 90cm. What is the moment of inertia of this system through a perpendicular axis that is at the center of the square?The Attempt at a...

    Moment of inertia of a bar with two spheres

    Oops.. The factor is 1/12 and I was thinking in (L*R)^{2} instead of (L+R)^{2} So, trying again I've got the right result but am I doing it right? I did this: (sphere) Ip = Icm + Md^{2} <=> Ip = \frac{2}{5} MR^{2} + M(\frac{L}{2} + R)^2 <=> Ip = \frac{2}{5} M R^{2} +...

    Moment of inertia of a bar with two spheres

    Homework Statement A dumbbell has two spheres of radius 0.10m and mass 10kg (each). The two spheres are connected using a bar with length 1.0m and mass 12kg. What is the moment of inertia of the dumbbell about an axis perpendicular to an axis at the bar's center of mass? Moment of inertia...

    Time to a driver catch another

    27.8^{2}=2(1.73)(x-x_{0}) x-x_{0}=\frac{1}{2}(5.56)*t^{2} This? :confused:

    Time to a driver catch another

    x-x_{0}=\frac{1}{2}(1.73)*16^{2} x-x_{0}=\frac{1}{2}(5.56)*t^{2} Something like this?

    Time to a driver catch another

    To reach 100km/h it takes 16s and the car B takes 5s But I still can't figure how to get how long after driver A starts driving should driver B start to reach it :confused:

    Time to a driver catch another

    Homework Statement Two drivers met at a station and they discover that both have the same destination. The driver A has a car which goes from 0 to 100km/h in 16s and driver B has a car which goes from 0 to 100km/h in 5s. The maximum velocity of each is 100km/h How much time after driver A...

    How Much Work Is Needed to Stretch Two Springs and Move a Cube?

    0 But it says "The springs are attached to a small cube and stretched to a length L of 0.32m" so that's why I tried with xf and xi. So should I try with K = \frac{1}{2}k(x^{2}-0)? This then becomes x = 0.32-0.25 = 0.07 K = \frac{1}{2}200(0.07^{2}) = 0.49J * 2 (two springs) = 0.98J...

    Distance of a ball in a circle

    Homework Statement In the figure on the right, a 4.0 kg ball is attached to the end of a 1.6 m rope, which is fixed at O. The ball is held at A, with the rope horizontal, and is given an initial downward velocity. The ball moves through three quarters of a circle and arrives at B, with the...
