At t=0 a grinding wheel has an angular velocity of 25.0 rad/s. It has a constant angular acceleration of 31.0 rad/s2 until a circuit breaker trips at time t = 1.80 s. From then on, it turns through an angle 432 rad as it coasts to a stop at constant angular acceleration.(a) Through what total angle did the wheel turn between t = 0 and the time it stopped? (b) At what time did it stop? (c) What was its acceleration as it slowed down?

Answer:

a)
\Delta \theta_(T) = 527.22\,rad, b)
t = 12.493\,s, c)
\alpha_(2) = -7.556\,(rad)/(s^(2))

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The travelled angular position during acceleration is:


\Delta \theta_(1) = (25\,(rad)/(s))\cdot (1.80\,s) +(1)/(2)\cdot (31\,(rad)/(s^(2)) )\cdot (1.80\,s)^(2)


\Delta \theta_(1) = 95.22\,rad

The travelled angular position during deceleration is:


\Delta \theta_(2) = 432\,rad

The total travelled angular position is:


\Delta \theta_(T) = \Delta \theta_(1) + \Delta \theta_(2)


\Delta \theta_(T) = 527.22\,rad

b) The final angular speed at acceleration phase is:


\omega^(2) = \omega_(o)^(2) + 2\cdot \alpha_(1)\cdot \Delta \theta_(1)


\omega = \sqrt{\omega_(o)^(2)+2\cdot \alpha_(1)\cdot \Delta \theta_(1)}


\omega = \sqrt{(25\,(rad)/(s) )^(2)+2\cdot (31\,(rad)/(s^(2)) )\cdot (95.22\,rad)}


\omega = 80.8\,(rad)/(s)

The angular deceleration experimented by the grinding wheel is:


\omega^(2) = \omega_(o)^(2) + 2\cdot \alpha_(2)\cdot \Delta \theta_(2)


\alpha_(2) = (\omega^(2)-\omega_(o)^(2))/(2\cdot \Delta \theta_(2))


\alpha_(2) = ((0\,(m)/(s) )^(2)-(80.8\,(m)/(s) )^(2))/(2\cdot (432\,rad))


\alpha_(2) = -7.556\,(rad)/(s^(2))

The period of time of the deceleration phase is:


\omega = \omega_(o) +\alpha_(2)\cdot \Delta t_(2)


\Delta t_(2) = (\omega - \omega_(o))/(\alpha_(2))


\Delta t_(2) = (0\,(rad)/(s)-80.8\,(rad)/(s))/(-7.556\,(rad)/(s^(2)) )


\Delta t_(2) = 10.693\,s

The instant when the grinding wheel stops is:


t = 1.80\,s + 10.693\,s


t = 12.493\,s

c) The angular deceleration is:


\alpha_(2) = -7.556\,(rad)/(s^(2))
