Q: A mechanic uses a wrench to loosen a bolt. The wrench is 0.30 m long, and the mechanic applies a force of 120 N at an angle of 45° to the handle. What is the magnitude of the torque produced?

$$T = Fr \sin \theta = (120\ \text{N})(0.30\ \text{m})\sin 45^\circ = 36\ \text{N-m}$$

Q: A bolt requires a torque of 40 N-m to loosen. If you can only exert a force of 100 N, what is the minimum length of the wrench needed if you pull perpendicular to the handle?

$$r = \frac{T}{F} = \frac{40\ \text{N-m}}{100\ \text{N}} = 0.40\ \text{m}$$

Q: A seesaw is 2.0 m long and massless. Child A (30 kg) sits at one end. Where should Child B (40 kg) sit to balance the seesaw?

Q: A thin hoop and a solid sphere both have mass $$m$$ and radius $$r. $$Which has the greater moment of inertia about their central axis?

The thin hoop, because $$I_{\text{hoop}} = mr^2$ and I$$_{\text{sphere}} = \frac{2}{5}$$mr^2$$

Question 8

A pulley of radius 0.15 m is accelerated from rest to 14 rev/min in 4.5 s by a force of 13.0 N. What is the moment of inertia of the pulley?

Accepted Answer

$$\omega = 14\ 	ext{rev/min} 	imes \frac{2\pi}{60} = 1.47\ 	ext{rad/s}$$ 
 $$\alpha = \frac{1.47\ 	ext{rad/s}}{4.5\ 	ext{s}} = 0.33\ 	ext{rad/s}^2$$ 
 $$T = F r = 13.0\ 	ext{N} 	imes 0.15\ 	ext{m} = 1.95\ 	ext{N-m}$$

Accepted Answer

$$I = 2 	imes m r^2$ = 2 	imes 0.30\ 	ext{kg} 	imes (0.33\ 	ext{m})^2$ = 0.066\ 	ext{kg-m}^2$$

Question 10

If you double the distance of two children from the center of a seesaw, by what factor does the moment of inertia increase?

Accepted Answer

It increases by a factor of 4, since $$I = m r^2$ and r$ is doubled.

Question 11

A solid wheel (mass 5.2 kg, diameter 0.55 m) is at rest. You want it to rotate at 12 rev/s in 35 s. What force must you exert on a strap wrapped around the wheel?

Accepted Answer

$$r = 0.275\ 	ext{m}$$ 
 $$I = \frac{1}{2} m r^2$ = \frac{1}{2} 	imes 5.2\ 	ext{kg} 	imes (0.275\ 	ext{m})^2$ = 0.393\ 	ext{kg-m}^2$$ 
 $$\omega = 12\ 	ext{rev/s} 	imes 2\pi = 75.4\ 	ext{rad/s}$$ 
 $$\alpha = \frac{75.4}{35} = 2.15\ 	ext{rad/s}^2$$ 
 $$T = I \alpha = 0.393 	imes 2.15 = 0.845\ 	ext{N-m}$$ 
 $$F = \frac{T}{r} = \frac{0.845}{0.275} = 3.07\ 	ext{N}$$

Question 12

Question 14

A solid wheel accelerates at 3.25 rad/s² when a force of 4.5 N exerts a torque on it. If the wheel is replaced by a wheel with all its mass on the rim ($$I = mr^2$), what force should be exerted to achieve the same angular acceleration?

Accepted Answer

A greater force is needed because the moment of inertia is larger for the rim mass. $$F_{	ext{rim}} = \frac{I_{	ext{rim}} \alpha}{r}$$

Question 15

A bicycle wheel can be accelerated by pulling on the chain (radius 0.14 m) or a string wrapped around the tire (radius 0.38 m). If 15 N is needed on the chain, what force is needed on the string for the same acceleration?

Accepted Answer

$$F_{	ext{string}} = \frac{T}{r_{	ext{string}}} = \frac{15\ 	ext{N} 	imes 0.14\ 	ext{m}}{0.38\ 	ext{m}} = 5.53\ 	ext{N}$$

Question 16

A ball on a low-friction, tilted surface slides downhill without rotating. On a rough surface, it rolls. Why?

Accepted Answer

Friction provides a torque that causes the ball to rotate; without friction, no torque acts to rotate the ball.

Question 17

If you apply a force at an angle less than 90° to the lever arm, how does the torque compare to applying the same force perpendicular?

Accepted Answer

The torque is less, because $$T = Fr \sin 	heta$$ and $$\sin 	heta \u003c 1$$ for $$	heta \u003c 90^\circ$$
