Disc jockeys (DJs) use a turntable in applying their trade, often using their hand to speed up or slow down a disc record so as to produce a desired change in the sound (Fig. P12.56). Suppose DJ Trick wants to slow down a record initially rotating clockwise (as viewed from above) with an angular speed of 33.0 rpm to an angular speed of 22.0 rpm. The record has a rotational inertia of 0.012 kg·m2 and a radius of 0.15 m. a. What

- A square plate with sides 2.0 m in length can rotatearound an axle passingthrough its center of mass(CM) and perpendicular toits surface (Fig. P12.53). There are four forces acting on the plate at differentpoints. The rotational inertia of the plate is 24 kg m2. Use the values given in the figure to answer the following questions. a. Whatis the net torque acting onthe plate? b. What is theangular acceleration of the plate? FIGURE P12.53 Problems 53 and 54.arrow_forwardReview. A string is wound around a uniform disk of radius R and mass M. The disk is released from rest with the string vertical and its top end tied to a fixed bar (Fig. P10.78). Show that (a) the tension in the string is one third of the weight of the disk, (b) the magnitude of the acceleration of the center of mass is 2g/3, and (c) the speed of the center of mass is (4gh/3)1/2 after the disk has descended through distance h.

The disks outer rimhas radius R, and the inner rim has radius R/2. As shown in thefigure, F1 and F3 are tangent to the outer rim of the disk, and F2 is tangent to the inner rim. F3 is parallel to the x axis, F2 is parallel to the y axis, and F1 makes a 45 angle with the negative x axis. Find expressions for the magnitude of each torque exertedaround the center of the disk in terms of R and F1. FIGURE P12.71 Problems 71-75arrow_forward
- A child works on a project in art class and uses an outline of her hand on a sheet of construction paper to draw a turkey (Fig. P16.36). The teacher pins the turkey to the bulletin board in the front of the classroom by using a thumbtack. The student notices that if she flicks her finger on the end of the turkey, it oscillates back and forth with a frequency of about 1.65 Hz. If the rotational inertia of the paper turkey is 1.25 105 kgm2 and its mass is 0.005 kg, what is the distance between the thumbtack and the center of mass of the turkey? FIGURE P16.36arrow_forwardReview. One end of a light spring with force constant k = 100 N/m is attached to a vertical wall. A light string is tied to the other end of the horizontal spring. As shown in Figure P12.57, the string changes from horizontal to vertical as it passes over a pulley of mass M in the shape of a solid disk of radius R = 2.00 cm. The pulley is free to turn on a fixed, smooth axle. The vertical section of the string supports an object of mass m = 200 g. The string does not slip at its contact with the pulley. The object is pulled downward a small distance and released. (a) What is the angular frequency of oscillation of the object in terms of the mass M? (b) What is the highest possible value of the angular frequency of oscillation of the object?

The lower end is tied to the floor, and the upper end is tied to a small set of wheels through a slot in a track on which the wheels move (Fig. P18.76). The wheels have a mass that is negligible compared with that of the siring, and they roll without friction on the track so that the upper end of the string is essentially free. Figure P18.76 At equilibrium, the string is vertical and motionless. When it is carrying a small-amplilude wave, you may assume the string is always under uniform tension 1.30 N.
