Chapter 9 Problem 48E

Question

A bucket of mass m is tied to a massless cable that is wrapped around the outer rim of a frictionless uniform pulley of radius R, similar to the system shown in Fig. E9.47. In terms of the stated variables, what must be the moment of inertia of the pulley so that it always has half as much kinetic energy as the bucket?

Solution

Solution 48E Kinetic energy of an object having moment of inertia I and angular velocity is given as, K = I 2 2 Given in the quest
