Chapter 12 Problem 75P

Question

Figure P12.75 shows a hoop of mass \(M\) and radius \(R\) rotating about an axle at the edge of the hoop. The hoop starts at its highest position and is given a very small push to start it rotating. At its lowest position, what are (a) the angular velocity and (b) the speed of the lowest point on the hoop?

Solution

Step 1 of 6)

The first step in solving 12 problem number 88 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Figure P12.75 shows a hoop of mass \(M\) and radius \(R\) rotating about an axle at the edge of the hoop. The hoop starts at its highest position and is given a very small push to start it rotating. At its lowest position, what are (a) the angular velocity and (b) the speed of the lowest point on the hoop?
From the textbook chapter Rotation of a Rigid Body you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
