If either a simple or a compound pendulum is used to determine experimentally the acceleration of gravity g, difficulties are encountered. In the case of the simple pendulum, the string is not truly weightless, while in the case of the compound pendulum, the exact location of the mass center is difficult to establish. In the case of a compound pendulum, the difficulty can be eliminated by using a reversible, or Kater, pendulum. Two knife edges A and B are placed so that they are obviously not at the same distance from the mass center G, and the distance l is measured with great precision. The position of a counterweight D is then adjusted so that the period of oscillation τ obtained is equal to that of a true simple pendulum of length l and that g 4π2 l/τ.
Determine the torque needed to bring a turbine whose moment of inertia of 60 slugs-ft² to rest in 1.2 sec from an initial speed of 764 rpm. The correct answer is 400 lb-ft.
