A bucket filled with water has a mass of 23 kg and is attached to a rope, which in turn, is wound around a 0.050-m radius cylinder at the top of a well. What torque does the weight of water and bucket produce on the cylinder if the cylinder is not permitted to rotate

Respuesta :

Answer:11.27 Nm

Explanation:

Given

mass of bucket with water is [tex]m=23\ kg[/tex]

radius of cylinder [tex]r=0.05\ m[/tex]

If the cylinder is not permitted to rotate

Torque is given by the product of Force and distance of force from axis of rotation

[tex]T=F\times r[/tex]

where F=weight of bucket with water

[tex]F=mg[/tex]

[tex]T=mg\times r[/tex]

[tex]T=23\times 9.8\times 0.05[/tex]

[tex]T=11.27\ Nm[/tex]
