Question

A disk with velocity v= 10m/s, mass m=5 kg, and radius r=2 m. Find the total kinetic energy.

Expert Solution
Step 1

We know that for a disc:

Inertia(I) is as below.

Physics homework question answer, step 1, image 1

value of the rotational kinetic energy is:

Step 2

So, total kinetic energy(ET) is given as below.

Physics homework question answer, step 2, image 1

hence putting values above will give us the final total kinetic energy expression:

so, we have:
