A truck with four wheels, each 750 mm diameter, travels on rails round a curve of 75 m at a speed of 50 km/h. The total mass of the truck is 5 t and its centre of gravity is midway between the axles, 1.05 m above the rails and midway between them. Each pair of wheels is driven by a motor rotating in the opposite direction to the wheels and at four times the speed. The moment of inertia of each pair of wheels is 15 Kgm2. The rails lie on a horizontal plane and 1.45 m apart. Determine the load on each rail.
A flywheel connected to a punching machine has to supply energy of 400 Nm while running at a mean angular speed of 20 radians/s. If the total fluctuation of speed is not to exceed ±2%, the mass moment of inertia of the flywheel in kg – m2 is
A yoyo is constructed by attaching three uniform, solid disks along their central axes as shown. The two outer disks are identical, each with mass M = 58 g, radius R = 3.3 cm, and moment of inertia 1/2MR2. The central, smaller disk has mass M/2 and radius R/2. A light, flexible string of negligible mass is wrapped counterclockwise around the central disk of the yoyo. The yoyo is then placed on a horizontal tabletop and the string is gently pulled with a constant force F = 0.25 N. The tension in the string is not sufficient to cause the yoyo to leave the tabletop. In this problem consider the two cases show. In Case 1 the string is pulled straight up, perpendicular to the tabletop. In Case 2 the string is pulled horizontally, parallel to the tabletop. In both cases the yoyo rolls without slipping. In both the cases shown what is the magnitude of the tourqe t excerted by the string about the contact point of the yo-yo wiith the table in N*m. What is the moment of intertia of the yo-yo…

In the helicopter shown; a vertical tail propeller is used to pre- vent rotation of the cab as the speed of the main blades is changed. Assuming that the tail propeller is not operating determine the final angular velocity of the cab after the speed of the main blades has been changed from I80 to 240 rpm. (The speed of the main blades is measured relative to the cab, and the cab has a centroidal moment of inertia of 650 lb.ft.s2. Each of the four main blades is assumed to be a slender rod 14 ft weighing 55 lb.)
A cylinder with rotational inertia 0.050 kg m2 is spinning with angular velocity 25 rad/s, clockwise with negligible friction about a vertical axis. A second cylinder that is not spinning is centered above and dropped onto the spinning cylinder.

A turbine rotor is mounted on a stepped shaft that is fixed at both ends as shown in The torsional stiffnesses of the two segments of the shaft are given by ka = 3,000 N-m/rad and ka = 4.000 N-m/rad.
