A horizontal disk with a radius of 23 m rotates about a vertical axis through its center. The disk starts from rest and has a constant angular acceleration of 5.7 rad/s 2 . At what time will the radial and tangential components of the linear acceleration of a point on the rim of the disk be equal in magnitude? Answer in units of s

Respuesta :

Answer:

time is 0.42 sec

Explanation:

Given data

radius = 23 m

angular acceleration = 5.7 rad/s²

to find out

time

solution

we know that radius is constant so that

tangential acceleration At = angular acceleration × radius   ............. 1

tangential acceleration =  5.7 × 23 = 131.1 m/s²

and

radial acceleration Ar =  (angular velocity)² × radius    ........................2

we consider angular velocity = ω

this is acting toward center

so

compare 1 and 2

At = Ar

5.7 r =ω³ r

ω = √5.7 = 2.38746 rad/s

so

ω = 5.7 t

2.387 = 5.7 t

t =  2.387 / 5.7

t = 0.4187

time is 0.42 sec
