The composite disc below is free to rotate about a fixed axis, perpendicular to it and through its center. All forces are 100 N, and all angles are 37°. The dotted lines are either exactly parallel or exactly perpendicular to each other. The inner (darker) and outer (lighter) discs have radii 3 m and 5 m, respectively. Calculate the Net Torque produced on the composite disc, about an axis perpendicular to it and through its center. Use +/– to indicate direction.

A cord connected at one end to a block which can slide on an inclined plane has its other end wrapped around a cylinder resting in a depression at the top of the plane as shown in Fig. 10–81. Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.80 m along the plane, starting from rest.
(b) the coefficient of friction between all surfaces is μ = 0.035 . [Hint: In part (b) first determine the normal force on the cylinder, and make any reasonable assumptions needed.]

"(II) An Atwood machine (Fig. 11–16) consists of two masses, m_A = 7.0kg and m_B = 8.2kg , connected by a cord that passes over a pulley free to rotate about a fixed axis. The pulley is a solid cylinder of radius R₀ = 0.45m and mass 0.80 kg.
(a) Determine the acceleration a of each mass.
(b) What percentage of error in a would be made if the moment of inertia of the pulley were ignored? Ignore friction in the pulley bearings. Use angular momentum.

As the pulley turns, friction at the axle exerts a torque of magnitude 0.50 N m. If the blocks are released from rest, how long does it take the 4.0 kg block to reach the floor?594views3rank

(III) Two blocks are connected by a light string passing over a pulley of radius 0.15 m and moment of inertia I. The blocks move (towards the right) with an acceleration of 1.00 m/s² along their frictionless inclines (see Fig. 10–62).
(c) Find the net torque acting on the pulley, and determine its moment of inertia, I.
