Dynamics of rotational motion about fixed axis
Question

A copper ball of mass m = 1 kg with a radius of r = 10 cm rotates with angular velocity ω = 2 rad/s about an axis passing through its centre. The work should be performed to increase the angular velocity of rotation of the ball two fold is

Easy
Solution

K.E. = 12Iω2

If ω is to be doubled

Therefore,W= K.E. = K.E.2-K.E.1 = 12I[ω22 -ω1 2]

  K.E. = 12 25mr2[ω22-ω21]

   = 210×1[(110)2][42-22] =2.4 ×10-2 J
