A small block on a frictionless, horizontal surface has a mass of 0.0250 kg. It is attached to a massless cord passing through a hole in the surface. The block is originally revolving at a distance of 0.300 m from the hole with an angular speed of 1.75 rad/s. The cord is pulled from below, shortening the radius of the circle in which the block revolves to 0.150 m. Model the block as a point particle. (a) Is the angular momentum of the block conserved? Why or why not? (b) What is the new angular speed? (c) Find the change in kinetic energy of the block.

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) Yes

b) 7 rad/s

c) 0.01034 J

Explanation:

a)

Yes the angular momentum of the block is conserved since the net torque on the block is zero.

b)

m = mass of the block = 0.0250 kg

w₀ = initial angular speed before puling the cord = 1.75 rad/s

r₀ = initial radius before puling the cord = 0.3 m

w = final angular speed after puling the cord = ?

r = final  radius after puling the cord = 0.15 m

Using conservation of angular momentum

m r₀² w₀ = m r² w

r₀² w₀ = r² w

(0.3)² (1.75) = (0.15)² w

w = 7 rad/s

c)

Change in kinetic energy is given as

ΔKE = (0.5) (m r² w² - m r₀² w₀²)

ΔKE = (0.5) ((0.025) (0.15)² (7)² - (0.025) (0.3)² (1.75)²)

ΔKE = 0.01034 J

a) Yes the angular momentum of the block is conserved because the net torque on the block is zero.

b) [tex]\rm \omega = 7\;rad/sec[/tex]

c) [tex]\rm \Delta KE = 0.01034\;J[/tex]

Given :

Mass, m = 0.0250 Kg

Initial radius before puling the cord, [tex]\rm r_0[/tex] = 0.3 m

Angular speed before pulling the cord, [tex]\rm \omega_0[/tex] = 1.75 rad/sec

Final radius after puling the cord, r = 0.15 m

Solution :

a) Yes the angular momentum of the block is conserved because the net torque on the block is zero.

b) To find the new angular speed, conserve the angular momentum,

[tex]\rm mr_0^2\omega_0 = m r^2\omega[/tex]   --- (1)

where, [tex]\omega[/tex] is the final angular speed after puling the cord.

Now put the values of [tex]\rm \omega_0, \; r_0, \; r \; and \; m[/tex] in equation (1) we get,

[tex](0.3)^2\times 1.75 = (0.15)^2\times \omega[/tex]

[tex]\omega = \dfrac{0.3^2 \times 1.75 }{0.15^2}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \omega = 7\;rad/sec[/tex]

c) We know that change in kinetic energy is given by,

[tex]\rm \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\omega^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mr_0^2\omega_0^2[/tex]

[tex]\rm \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.025\times((0.15^2\times 7^2)- (0.3^2 \times 1.75^2))[/tex]

[tex]\rm \Delta KE = 0.01034\;J[/tex]
