Moment of inertia

Objective: The objective of this laboratory was to theoretically calculate the moment of inertia of a disk and a ring and then to verify the moment of inertia for both objects through experiment. This laboratory shows that while the theoretical is not within the uncertainty of the experimental, both values are extremely similar to each other. Data and Analysis: Data: Table 1: The Angular Acceleration of No Ring and Ring Trial No Ring Ring 5g 4.57 ± 0.005 rad/s2 1.32 ± 0.005 rad/s2 10g 13.16

SYSTEM OF PARTICLES AND ROTATIONAL MOTION CENTRE OF MASS AND ROTATIONAL MOTION INTRODUCTION- For describing the motion of rigid bodies, we shall introduce the key concept of ‘centre of mass’. This concept enables us to understand how we can apply justifiably the Newton’s laws of motion, in essentially the same form to objects of large size including even the astronomical objects like the planets and the stars. KINDS OF MOTION OF A RIGID BODY- A rigid body may have three kinds of motion- (1) Pure

rotate once they have fallen back onto the ice. Instead, the skater will continue to glide across the ice. This happens when the skater moves the position of their arms from being tucked into spreading them out to be able to keep their movement of inertia, as well as, to balance themselves. Slide 6 In summary, when landing a triple axel in figure skating, the skater should push off with their foot, creating a downward force, when driving down and off the ice, torque is being set up to give him

Abstract: The goal of this project is to control the azimuth angle of an anti aircraft gun. Anti aircraft gun is a type of counter measure gear used to fire tracer rounds to the hostile aircraft. It is a fixed ground gun system which can rotate in azimuth as well as in horizon. It can track the tail of an airship and hunt it down. The first effective anti aircraft gun was used in world war I. But, the most drawback was that, it was human controlled thus human casualties was high. To dominate over

with the theoretical deflection. If the load is applied at the mid- length a=b=L/2 then mid span deflection is: δ = PL3/(48EI). Where P is the applied force, L is the length of beam, E is the modulus of elasticity of aluminum, and I is the moment of Inertia. For a beam of rectangular cross section, say of width w and

stay at rest unless acted upon by an opposing force when it will begin to move. When the object rejects this force, for a brief moment in time, it is called the moment of inertia, where the object, despite the acting push or pull, remains motionless. Many times, this moment of inertia can be translated into a person’s life as they deal with change, and for some, the moment lasts a life time. Within the collection of short stories entitled Dubliners by James Joyce, the evolution from immaturity to maturity

Chapter 2 Literature review 2.1 Flywheel According to Christopher S. Putnam, a flywheel is merely a wheel fixed on an axle which stores and regulates energy by spinning continuously. Flywheel storage systems are composed of five main mechanisms: flywheel, bearing, electrical machine, power converter and containment chamber. Christopher further stated that the device is one of humanity’s oldest and the true potential of the flywheel still has to be well sized till today that’s why there is ongoing

Abstract: This project deals with the designing a control system for Underwater Gliders. Among the Autonomous underwater vehicles, the most efficient ones are the underwater gliders as they are driven by buoyancy and they spend much of their flight time in stable, steady motion. This project deals with the modelling the control system for efficiently maneuvering the glider using the equations of motion for the underwater glider. After modelling the system it is simulated with various inputs such

Experimental and Computation Vibration-Rotation Spectroscopy for Carbon Monoxide Through the Use of High-Resolution Infrared (IR) Spectra Introduction: The goal of this experiment is to study the most precise way of measuring molecular bond lengths and introduction to computational software used for studying molecular properties. This is of interest in that the instrument to being used, a Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer, can measure the vibrational and rotational transitions
