4 Two friction disks A and B are to be brought into contact withoutslipping when the angular velocity of disk A is 240 rpm counterclockwise. Disk A starts from rest at time t = 0 and is given a constantangular acceleration with a magnitude α. Disk B starts from rest attime t = 2 s and is given a constant clockwise angular acceleration, also with a magnitude α. Determine (a) the required angular acceleration magnitude α, (b) the time at which the contact occurs

This question is incomplete, the missing image is uploaded along this answer below;

a) the required angular acceleration magnitude α is  π rad/s² or 3.14 rad/s²

b) the time at which the contact occur is 8 seconds

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

first we convert the given angular velocity to rad/s

angular velocity = 240 rpm = ((240/60) × 2π ) = 8π rad/s

so

ωA = 8π rad/s

next we determine angular acceleration at point A; so

ωA = at

8π rad/s = at -------let this be equation

thus, angular acceleration of disk A is ωA and rotates in counter clockwise direction.

Next we determine the velocity of point C;

Vc = rA × ωA

where Vc is velocity at point C, rA is radius of A ( 150/1000)m,  { from the diagram }

so we substitute

Vc = 0.15m × 8π

Vc = 1.2π m/s

for angular velocity at point B;

Vc = rB × ωB

where rB is the radius of B ( 200/1000)m

we substitute

1.2π = 0.2 × ωB

ωB = 1.2π / 0.2

ωB = 6π rad/s

Thus, the wheel B rotates with an angular velocity of 6π rad/s in clock wise direction.

Now,

a) Determine the required angular acceleration magnitude α

we find the the angular acceleration of disk B after 2 seconds, using the expression;

ωB = at

where angular acceleration is a and t is time ( t - 2)

we substitute

ωB = at

6π = a( t - 2) -------- let this be equation 2

now, lets substract equation 1 form equation 2

(6π = a( t - 2)) - (8π = at)

(6π = at - 2a) - ( 8π = at)

-2π = 0 + -2a

2π = 2a

a = 2π/2

a = π rad/s² or 3.14 rad/s²

Therefore, the required angular acceleration magnitude α is  π rad/s² or 3.14 rad/s²

b) determine the time at which the contact occurs;

from equation 1

8π = at

we substitute in the value of a

8π = π × t

t = 8π / π

t = 8 seconds

Therefore, the time at which the contact occur is 8 seconds

the answer is b

explanation:

the skeletons of most mammals reach a certain size and then stop growing. however, many animals, including some mammals, keep growing throughout their lives. kangaroos, for example, just keep growing and growing until they die. also, the longer an animal lives the greater the chance it might catch some deadly disease.
