Abicycle wheel with a radius of 34 cm is given an angular acceleration of 2.64 rad/s62
by applying a force of 0.32 n on the edge of the wheel. what is the wheel's moment of inertia?

Explanation:

The bicycle wheel can be modeled as a hoop, which moment of inertia is:

(1) Where is the mass and is the radius.

However, since we are given the applied force and angular acceleration , we can use the following equation:

(2)

Where:

Isolating :

(3)

(4)

Finally:

This is the bicycle wheel moment of inertia

a) electrical > light, sound, and thermal< < < <

) the mechanical energy of the firefighter moving.< < < < a) electrical > light, sound, and thermal< < < <

c) both a and b.
