A 2-kg disk has a radius of 18 cm and rotates with an angular acceleration of 12
rad/s2 about an axis through its center and perpendicular to the plane of the disk.
Determine the tangential force at the rim of the disk.


Sagot :

Answer:

By the definition of the torque, we have:

[tex]\tau=FR,τ=FR,[/tex]

here, FF is the tangential force at the rim of the disk, rr is the radius of the disk.

From the other hand,

[tex]\tau=I\alpha.τ=Iα.[/tex]

The moment of inertia of the disk can be written as follows:

[tex]I=\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2.I= [/tex]

Finally, we have:

[tex]FR=\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2\alpha,FR=
