Question

A 60.0-kg grindstone is a solid disk 0.520 m in diameter. You press an ax down on the rim with a normal force of 170 N (Figure 1) . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the blade and the stone is 0.60, and there is a constant friction torque of 6.50Nm between the axle of the stone and its bearings.

How much force must be applied tangentially at the end of a crank handle 0.500 m long to bring the stone from rest to 120 rev/min in 8.00 s ?

After the grindstone attains an angular speed of 120 rev/min, what tangential force at the end of the handle is needed to maintain a constant angular speed of 120 rev/min?

How much time does it take the grindstone to come from 120 rev/min to rest if it is acted on by the axle friction alone?

Explanation / Answer


A)


initial velocity = w1 = 0

final angular velocity - w2 = 120 rev/min = (120*2*pi)/60 = 4pi rad/s


angular acceleration = (w2-w1)/t = 4pi/8 = 1.57 rad/s^2


torque = I*alfa

(F*r - Tk - u*N*R = I*alfa = 0.5*m*R^2*alfa

F*0.5 - 6.5 0.6*170*0.26 = 0.5*60*0.26^2*1.57

F = 351.13 N

-------------

at constant speed , alfa = 0

(F*r - Tk - u*N*R = 0


F*0.5 - 6.5 0.6*170*0.26 = 0

F = 344.76 N

++++++++++

net torque = I*alfa


6.5 = 0.5*60*0.26^2*alfa


alfa = 3.2

w2/t = 3.2


t = 4*3.14/3.2

t = 3.925 s
