In order to determine the mass moment of inertia of a flywheel of radius 600 mm, a 12-kg block is attached to a wire that is wrapped around the flywheel. The block is released and is observed to fall 3 m in 4.6 s. To eliminate bearing friction from the computation, a second block of mass 24 kg is used and is observed to fall 3 m in 3.1 s. Assuming that the moment of the couple due to friction remains constant, determine the mass moment of inertia of the flywheel.
The angular velocity vector of a football that has just been kicked is horizontal, and its axis of symmetry OC is oriented as shown. Knowing that the magnitude of the angular velocity is 200 rpm and that the ratio of the axis and transverse moments of inertia is determine (a) the orientation of the axis of precession OA (a) the rates of precession and spin.

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.
