A truck stalls and is put in neutral by the driver, while the train is moving at 35.0 m/s. If the truck has a mass of 1000. kg and each wheel has a mass of 8.00 kg and a radius of 0.150 m, and the truck has 8 wheels, find the total Kinetic Energy of the truck with the Kinetic Energy of the wheels. v = rw Treat each wheel as a solid disk Isp = 1/2 mr ^2 where (KE)rot = 1/2 Iw ^2

Two identical wheels are moving on horizontal surfaces. The center of mass of each has the same linear speed. However, one wheel is rolling, while the other is sliding on a frictionless surface without rolling. Each wheel then encounters an incline plane. One continues to roll up the incline, while the other continues to slide up. Eventually they come to a momentary halt, because the gravitational force slows them down. Each wheel is a disk of mass 3.73 kg. On...

A potter's wheel is a disk that has a mass of 5.0 kg and a radius of 0.5 m. When turned on, a motor spins up the wheel with a constant torque of 7.0 N·m for 10.0 seconds. Note: the moment of inertia of a solid disk is given by 1/2 MR2. Also, there is no translational motion, the wheel simply spins in place. a. [8 pts.] Find the wheel's angular acceleration in radians/sec2 during these 10 s. b. [8...
