A child is pushing a merry-go-round. The angle through which the merry-go-round has turned varies with time according to (t)=t+t3, where = 0.439 rad/s and = 1.40×102 rad/s3.
1-Calculate the angular velocity of the merry-go-round as a function of time.
Express your answer in terms of the variables , , and t.
2-What is the initial value of the angular velocity?
Part C
Calculate the instantaneous value of the angular velocity z at t= 5.35 s .
Part D
Calculate the average angular velocity avz for the time interval t=0 to t= 5.35 s .
Solution
angular velocity = w (t)
w (t) = (gamma) + (3 * beta * t2) rad/s
-------------------------------------------------
w0 occur when t = 0
w (t) = (gamma) + (3 * beta * t2)
gamma = 0.439, beta = 0.014 and t = 0
0.439 + (0) = 0.439 rad/s
------------------------------------------------
w(5.35) = 0.439 + (3 * 0.014 * 5.352)
= 1.64 rad/s
-------------------------------------------------
t = 0 to t = 5.35 seconds
( theta(5.35) - theta(0)) / ( 5.35 - 0 )
(0.439(5.35) + 0.014*(5.353) ) ) / (5.35 - 0)
= 0.84 rad/s
