A uniform meter stick (with a length of 1 m) is pivoted to rotate about a horizontal axis through the 25 cm mark on the stick. The stick is released from rest in a horizontal position. The moment of inertia of a uniform rod about an axis perpendicular to the rod and through the center of mass of the rod is given by 1 12 ML2. Determine the magnitude of the initial angular acceleration of the stick

The initial angular acceleration of the stick is 16.812 radians per square second.

First, we calculate the resulting moment of inertia by Steiner theorem:

$I_{O} = I_{g} + M\cdot r^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$I_{g}$ - Moment of inertia with respect to center of mass, in kilogram-square meters.

- Mass of the stick, in meters.

- Distance between the point of rotation and the center of mass, in meters. $I_{O}$ - Moment of inertia with respect to the point of rotation, in meters.

If we know that $I_{g} = \frac{1}{12} \cdot M\cdot L^{2}$ , $L = 1\,m$ and $r = 0.25\,m$ , then the formula for the moment of inertia is:

$I_{O} = \frac{1}{12}\cdot M + \frac{1}{16}\cdot M$

$I_{O} = \frac{7}{48}\cdot M$ (2)

We know that initial angular acceleration ( $\alpha$ ), in radians per square second, is solely due to gravity. By the second Newton's law and the D'Alembert principle, we derive an expression for the initial angular acceleration of the stick:

$\Sigma M = M\cdot g\cdot r = I_{O}\cdot \alpha$ (3)

Where:

- Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.

- Distance between the point of rotation and the center of mass, in meters.

By (2) and (3) we have the following simplified expression:

$M\cdot g \cdot r = \frac{7}{48} \cdot M\cdot \alpha$

$\alpha = \frac{48}{7}\cdot g \cdot r$ (4)

If we know that $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $r = 0.25\,m$ , then the initial angular acceleration of the stick is:

$\alpha = \frac{48}{7}\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.25\,m)$

$\alpha = 16.812\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

The initial angular acceleration of the stick is 16.812 radians per square second.

Answer from: c4thegoat

The initial angular acceleration is $16.8 s^{-2}$

Explanation:

From the parallel axis theorem the moment of inertia about 25cm mark is

$I = \dfrac{1}{12}ML^2+MD^2$

since L = 1m & D = 0.25m , we have

$I = \dfrac{1}{12}M(1)^2+M(0.25m)^2$

$I = \dfrac{7}{48} M$

Now, the gravitational force (equal to the weight of the object) acts as a torque $\tau$ on the center of mass of the rod, which induces angular acceleration $\alpha$ according to

$\tau = I\alpha$

since $\tau = Mg D$

$MgD =I \alpha$

$MgD = \dfrac{7}{48} M \alpha$

solving for $\alpha$ we get

$\boxed{\alpha = \dfrac{48}{7} gD}$

putting in g= 9.8m/s^2 and D = 0.25m we get:

$\boxed{\alpha = 16.8\: s^{-2}.}$

which is the initial angular acceleration.

The period of a pendulum varies directly as the square root of the length of the pendulum and inversely as the square root of the acceleration due to gravity. find the period when the length is 144 cm and the acceleration due to gravity is 980 cm per second squared, if the period is 7pi seconds when the length is 289 cm and the acceleration due to gravity is 980 cm per second squared.
