The force of T = 20 N is applied to the cord of negligible mass. Determine the angular velocity of the 20-kg wheel when it has rotated 4 revolutions starting from rest. The wheel has a radius of gyration of kO = 0.3 m.

Image of wheel is missing, so i attached it.

ω = 14.95 rad/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of wheel; m = 20kg

T = 20 N

k_o = 0.3 m

Since the wheel starts from rest, T1 = 0.

The mass moment of inertia of the wheel about point O is;

I_o = m(k_o)²

I_o = 20 * (0.3)²

I_o = 1.8 kg.m²

So, T2 = ½•I_o•ω²

T2 = ½ × 1.8 × ω²

T2 = 0.9ω²

Looking at the image of the wheel, it's clear that only T does the work.

Thus, distance is;

s_t = θr

Since 4 revolutions,

s_t = 4(2π) × 0.4

s_t = 3.2π

So, Energy expended = Force x Distance

Wt = T x s_t = 20 × 3.2π = 64π J

Using principle of work-energy, we have;

T1 + W = T2

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

0 + 64π = 0.9ω²

0.9ω² = 64π

ω² = 64π/0.9

ω = √64π/0.9

ω = 14.95 rad/s

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
