Amachine part has the shape of a solid uniform sphere of mass 250 g and a diameter of 4.30 cm. it is spinning about a frictionless axle through its center, but at one point on its equator it is scraping against metal, resulting in a friction force of 0.0200 n at that point.

part (a):

find its angular acceleration. let the direction the sphere is spinning be the positive sense of rotation.

part (b):
how long will it take to decrease its rotational speed by 21.0 rad/s?

a) α = 9.30 rad / s²  and b) t = 2.26 s

Explanation:

Part A

For this exercise we will use the equation of Newton's second law rotational

     Σ τ = I α

     fr r = I α

Where I is the moment of inertia of the sphere

     I = 2/5 M r²

We replace

    fr r = 2/5 M r² α

    α = 5/2 fr / M r

Let's calculate

    M = 250 g (1 kg / 1000g) = 0.250 kg

    r = d / 2 = 4.30 / 2

    r = 2.15 cm (1m / 100cm) = 0.0215 m

    α = 5/2 0.0200 / (0.250 0.0215)

    α = 9.30 rad / s²

Part B

Let's use the angular kinematic equation

    w = w₀ - α t

    t = (w - w₀) / α

They give us the change in angular velocity 21.0 ras / s

    t = 21.0 / 9.30

    t = 2.26 s

a charge 3q is at the origin, and a charge −2q is on the positive x axis at x=a. part a where on the x-axis would you place a third charge so it would experience no net electric force? enter an expression for the exact answer, which will involve a square-root sign. (do not enter an approximate decimal answer.)
