A wheel has moment of inertia 5×10–3 kg m2 and is making 20 rev/s. The torque needed to stop it in 10 s is ......×10–2 N-m­:

A

2p

B

2.5p

C

4p

D

1.5 p

Answer

2p

Explanation

Solution

α=2π(n2n1)t=2π(020)10=4πrad/sec2\alpha = \frac{2\pi(n_{2} - n_{1})}{t} = \frac{2\pi(0 - 20)}{10} = - 4\pi rad/\sec^{2}{}

τ=Iα=5×103×4π=20π×103=2π×102Nm\tau = I\alpha = 5 \times 10^{- 3} \times 4\pi = 20\pi \times 10^{- 3} = 2\pi \times 10^{- 2}N - m
