- Textbook QuestionFlywheels—rapidly rotating disks—are widely used in industry for storing energy. They are spun up slowly when extra energy is available, then decelerate quickly when needed to supply a boost of energy. A 20-cm-diameter rotor made of advanced materials can spin at 100,000 rpm. a. What is the speed of a point on the rim of this rotor?402views
- Textbook QuestionA Ferris wheel of radius R speeds up with angular acceleration starting from rest. Find expressions for the (a) velocity and (b) centripetal acceleration of a rider after the Ferris wheel has rotated through angle ∆θ.447views
- Textbook QuestionA typical laboratory centrifuge rotates at 4000 rpm. Test tubes have to be placed into a centrifuge very carefully because of the very large accelerations. a. What is the acceleration at the end of a test tube that is 10 cm from the axis of rotation?798views1rank
- Textbook QuestionCompact Disc. A compact disc (CD) stores music in a coded pattern of tiny pits 10^-7 m deep. The pits are arranged in a track that spirals outward toward the rim of the disc; the inner and outer radii of this spiral are 25.0 mm and 58.0 mm, respectively. As the disc spins inside a CD player, the track is scanned at a constant linear speed of 1.25 m/s. (c) What is the average angular acceleration of a maximumduration CD during its 74.0-min playing time? Take the direction of rotation of the disc to be positive.445views
