How Long to Increase Spool's Angular Velocity from 11.0 to 35.0 rad/s?

AI Thread Summary
To determine the time required to increase a spool's angular velocity from 11.0 rad/s to 35.0 rad/s under a force of 14.9 N, the angular acceleration must first be calculated using Newton's second law for rotation. The moment of inertia (Icm) is given as 0.490 kg*m^2, and the relationship between torque and angular acceleration can be applied. The torque generated by the force acting at the outer radius of the spool must be considered to find the angular acceleration. Once the angular acceleration is known, the time can be calculated using the change in angular velocity. The discussion emphasizes the need to connect force, torque, and angular motion principles to solve the problem effectively.

Homework Statement


A spool of thin wire rotates without friction about its axis. A man pulls down on the wire with force of 14.9N. How long does it take to increase the angular velocity of the spool from 11.0rad/s to 35.0rad/s?
Icm = 0.490kg*m^2
Inner radius, r = 0.280m
Outer radius, R = 0.600m

Homework Equations


w=d(theta)/dt
w=v/r


The Attempt at a Solution



im not sure how to do this. i know the equation for angular velocity but i don't know what to do with the force and time

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
