Question Number 24934 by Tinkutara last updated on 29/Nov/17

A uniform circular disc of mass 1.5 kg  and radius 0.5 m is initially at rest on a  horizontal frictionless surface. Three  forces of equal magnitude F = 0.5 N  are applied simultaneously along the  three sides of an equilateral triangle  xyz with its vertices on the perimeter  of the disc. One second after applying  the forces, the angular speed of the disc  in rad/s is :

$$\mathrm{A}\:\mathrm{uniform}\:\mathrm{circular}\:\mathrm{disc}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{mass}\:\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{5}\:\mathrm{kg} \\ $$$$\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{radius}\:\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}\:\mathrm{m}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{initially}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{rest}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{a} \\ $$$$\mathrm{horizontal}\:\mathrm{frictionless}\:\mathrm{surface}.\:\mathrm{Three} \\ $$$$\mathrm{forces}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{equal}\:\mathrm{magnitude}\:{F}\:=\:\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}\:\mathrm{N} \\ $$$$\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{applied}\:\mathrm{simultaneously}\:\mathrm{along}\:\mathrm{the} \\ $$$$\mathrm{three}\:\mathrm{sides}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{an}\:\mathrm{equilateral}\:\mathrm{triangle} \\ $$$${xyz}\:\mathrm{with}\:\mathrm{its}\:\mathrm{vertices}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{perimeter} \\ $$$$\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{disc}.\:\mathrm{One}\:\mathrm{second}\:\mathrm{after}\:\mathrm{applying} \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{forces},\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{angular}\:\mathrm{speed}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{disc} \\ $$$$\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}\:\mathrm{is}\:: \\ $$

τ_(net) =3(r_⊥ F) = 3×(R/2)×F        =((3×0.5×0.5)/2) =(3/8)Nm  ω=α△t = ((τ_(net) /(MR^2 /2)))△t      =(3/8)×(2/(1.5×0.5×0.5))×1     = 2rad/s .

$$\tau_{{net}} =\mathrm{3}\left({r}_{\bot} {F}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{3}×\frac{{R}}{\mathrm{2}}×{F} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:=\frac{\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{2}}\:=\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{8}}{Nm} \\ $$$$\omega=\alpha\bigtriangleup{t}\:=\:\left(\frac{\tau_{{net}} }{{MR}^{\mathrm{2}} /\mathrm{2}}\right)\bigtriangleup{t} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:=\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{8}}×\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}×\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{5}}×\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\:\:\:=\:\mathrm{2}{rad}/{s}\:. \\ $$
