Two disks are rotating about the same axis. Disk A has a moment of inertia of 3.1 kg · m2 and an angular velocity of +8.0 rad/s. Disk B is rotating with an angular velocity of -9.3 rad/s. The two disks are then linked together without the aid of any external torques, so that they rotate as a single unit with an angular velocity of -2.2 rad/s. The axis of rotation for this unit is the same as that for...

a small cylindrical satellite is spinning at 40.0 rpm (revolutions per minute) to stabilize it. in order to start its mission the satellite must be de-spun to 2.00 rpm. the satellites cylindrical radius is 0.700 m with a mass of 400 kg. the de-spin will happen with two 3.00 kg masses on very light wires. (a) what length of wire, r, must the masses go out to in order to de-spin the satellite to 2.00 rpm? (b) what will be...

A playground merry-go-round with a moment of inertia of 300 kg m2 is rotating with no friction at an angular velocity of 2.3 rad/s. Sharon, whose mass is 70 kg, runs and jumps on the merry-go-round in such a way that after she jumps on it the merry-go round stops. How fast, in m/s was she running if the merry-go-round had a radius of 2.5 m? Enter only the numerical value of your answer to 2 significant figures. Do not...

Moment of Inertia To find the moment of inertia of different objects and to observe the changes in angular acceleration relative to changing moments of inertia. To also learn how to use calipers in making precise measurements The momentum of inertia of an object is calculated as I=∑mr^2 If the object in question rotates around a central point, then it can be considered a "point mass", and its moment of inertia is simply,  I=mr^2 where r is from the central point...

A cylinder of radius R = 50 cm has rotational inertia I. It is rotating with angular velocity w = 2 rad / s. A bullet of mass m = 160 grams and speed v = 1500 m / s hits the cylinder at a distance 40 cm from its axis and remains there. Both the cylinder and the bullet stop after collision. Find I in units of kg - m2.
