Rotational Motion Question 87

Question: An automobile moves on a road with a speed of $ 54km{h^{-1}} $ . The radius of its wheels is 0.45 m and the moment of inertia of the wheel about its axis of rotation is $ 3kgm^{2} $ . If the vehicle is brought to rest in 15s, the magnitude of average torque transmitted by its brakes to the wheel is

Options:

A) $ 6.66kgm^{2}{s^{-2}} $

B) $ 8.58kgm^{2}{s^{-2}} $

C) $ 10.86kgm^{2}{s^{-2}} $

D) $ 2.86kgm^{2}{s^{-2}} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

  • As velocity of an automobile vehicle, $ v=54km/hr=54\times \frac{5}{18}=15m/s $

    Angular velocity of a vehicle, $ v={\omega_0}r $

    $ \Rightarrow $ $ {\omega_0}=\frac{v}{R}=\frac{15}{0.45}=\frac{100}{3}rad/s $

    So, angular acceleration of an automobile,

    $ \alpha =\frac{\Delta \omega }{t}=\frac{{\omega_t}-{\omega_0}}{t}=\frac{0-\frac{100}{3}}{15}=\frac{-100}{45}rad/s^{2} $

    Thus, average torque transmitted by its brakes to wheel

    $ \tau =I\alpha $

    $ \Rightarrow $ $ 3\times \frac{100}{45}=6.66kgm^{2}{s^{-2}} $

    When mica is introduced, capacitance will increase hence voltage across capacitor, get decrease.
