Each object will be mounted so that it rotates about a fixed vertical axis, rotational acceleration will be caused by the tension in a string wrapped around a spit ape connected to a hanging weight, as shown. Using a Pasco Smart Pulley, you will mea: linear acceleration of the hanging weight for two different configurations: A) disk horizontally as shown above, B) horizontal disk and a hoop. disk (M,R) sooo aaeed] ee at spindle (1) Prel inary Questions: 1, In the figure above, a disk is shown on the platform, If the dis disk) of the same mass and radius, will the acceleration of ths the same? Teplaced by a hoop (hollow stem increase, decrease, or stay 2, After the mass m is released, will its acceleration be less than, equal to, or greater than g (or does the answer depend on 4)? eae Theory Draw a freebody diagram for the hanging weight and for the rotating mass system, For the latter, itis important to indicate where forces are applied. i Grew Lng ‘Newton's 2" law applied to the falling mass m yields mg-T=ma, or T=m(g~a), a)My (¢-a) eaten 4where [is the tension in the string. Similarly, for the rotating system, if we ignore friction in the spindle bearing, & Wee TH @ : where / isthe moment of inertia of the rotating system, r is the spindle radius, and Tr is the torque applied by the string to the spindle. Combining Eq. (1) and (2) yields mg~a) ° Theoretically, 2 A) Mnorizontat =4M ask Reise 6 B) Tiotat =! horizontal * 4 hoop» 4 Thoop Procedure Connect the Smart Pulley to the Pasco interface box. Open Data Studio and seféet the Smart Pulley setup. Open a graph so that you gan plot velocity versus time using tie Smart Pulley. Measure the mass (Marg) and radius (Rij) of the solid disk, the mass-(Mysop) and inside and outside radii (Rand R:) of the hoop, and the radius (F) of the spidle (to be measured with the caliper). Use hanging mass values (m) of 50 g, 100 g, 150 g, and 200 g, A) Mount the disk horizontally. Hang 2 50 g mass from the end of the string, allow it to fall and cause the to rotate, and record the velocity as a function of time. From the slope of your curve, calculate the acceleration. Repeat for the other three values of m. B) Place the hoop on top of the disk and repeat the measurements in A). Analysis and questions 1. For cach of the inertia configurations, enter your data into Excel. Create data columns giving m, a, and m(g-a). Graph m(g-q) versus a and do a linear fit to the data, From Eq. (3), the slope of the line should be +’. Using your measured value of r, calculate / m_(\tes) @_ (mls) m(g-a) 6 Move 66S 0.0254 | 0 agit wit ols nous | Lug Waser oO ots 0.13.96 Vue ExCE C25 0. 144!
