The two blocks in the figurelige.1) are connected by a massless rope that passes over a pulley. The pulley is 17 cn in diamoter and has a mass of 2 5 kg As the pulley tuns, friction at the axle exerts a torque of magnhude 0 48 N·m Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units I Value Units Submit Continue 4.0kg 1.0 m 20 kg 447 P 4/10/20Explanation / Answer
mass at the left hand,m1= 4.0 kg
Tension at the left hand,T1
mass at the right hand,m2= 2.0 kg
mass of the pulley,m3 = 2.5 kg
Right hand tension is T2
g (be the acceleration due to gravity) = 9.78 m/s2
acceleration of masses is a
the angular acceleration of the pulley is alpha
the radius of the pulley, r = 0.17 m
the friction ,F = 0.48 N.m
the hight for m1, h = 1 m
the time taken to reach the floor is t
For mass m1:
m1 g - T1 = m1 a
T1 = m1(g - a)
For mass m2:
T2 - m2 g = m2 a
T2 = m2(g + a)
For the pulley:
(T1 - T2)r - F = I alpha
= (m3 r2 / 2)(a / r)
T1 - T2 = F / r + m3 a / 2
*Eliminate T1 and T2:
m1(g - a) - m2(g + a) = F / r + m3 a / 2
(m1 - m2)g - (m1 + m2)a - m3 a / 2 - F / r
(m1 + m2 + m3 / 2)a = F / r + (m1 - m2)g
a = [ F / r + (m1 - m2)g ] / (m1 + m2 + m3 / 2)
h = at2 / 2
t = sqrt(2h / a)
= sqrt{ h(2m1 + 2m2 + m3) / [ F / r + (m1 - m2)g ] }
so t = sqrt{ 1( 2 * 4 + 2 * 2 + 2.5) / [ 0.48 / 0.17 + (4 - 2)9.78 ] }
= 0.804 sec
