A disc shaped body has two tight windings of light threads - one on the inner rim of radius R = 1m and the other on outer rim of radius 2R (see figure). It is kept on a horizontal surface and the ends of the two threads are pulled horizontally in opposite directions with force of equal magnitude F = 20N.Mass of the body and its moment of inertia about an axis through centre O and perpendicular to the plane of the figure are $M = 4 kg and I = 8 kg - m^{2}$ respectively. Find the kinetic energy of the body 2 seconds after the forces begin to act, if
(i) the surface is smooth, (ii) the surface is rough enough to ensure rolling without sliding

Detailed Solution

(i) Net force on the body = 0
However, it has a net torque acting on it
$τ = F . 2 R - FR = FR = 20 \times 1 = 20 N - m$
$∴ α = \frac{τ}{I} = \frac{20}{8} = \frac{5}{2} rad / s^{2}$
Angular speed at t = 2s is w = at = 5 rad/s

$∴ K = \frac{1}{2} I (i)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 5^{2} = 100 . J$
(ii) Let friction be = f

$f = Ma \Rightarrow f = 4 a . . . (i) And Iα = F . 2 R - FR - f . 2 R \Rightarrow 8 . α = 20 \times 1 - 2 f \Rightarrow 4 α = 10 - f But 2 R \cdot α = a \Rightarrow 2 α = a ∴ 10 - f = 2 a$
Solving (i) and (ii) $a = \frac{10}{6} m / s^{2} = \frac{5}{3} m / s^{2}$

$α = \frac{a}{2 R} = \frac{5}{6} rad / s^{2}$
Hence $t = 2 s; V = at = \frac{10}{3} m / s and ω = αt = \frac{5}{3} rad / s$
$∴ K = \frac{1}{2} M V^{2} + \frac{1}{2} I ω^{2} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times {(\frac{10}{3})}^{2} + \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times {(\frac{5}{3})}^{2} = 33 .33 J$
