Calculate the angular momentum of a 2 kg cylinder pulley with radius 0.1 m that rotates at a constant angular speed of 2 rad/s.

Answer :

Answer:

The angular momentum of cylinder pulley is [tex]0.02 \ kg\ m^2\ rad /s\\[/tex] .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of pulley , m = 2 kg .

Radius of pulley , R = 0.1 m .

Angular velocity of pulley , [tex]\omega=2\ rad/s[/tex] .

We need to find the angular momentum

We know , angular momentum of a rigid body is given by :

[tex]L=I\omega[/tex]       ......( 1 )

Here , I is the angular momentum of cylindrical pulley and is given by :

[tex]I=\dfrac{MR^2}{2}\\\\I=\dfrac{2\times 0.1^2}{2}\\\\I=0.01\ kg \ m^2[/tex]

Putting value of I and [tex]\omega[/tex] in equation 1 .

We get :

[tex]L=0.01\times 2\ kg\ m^2\ rad /s\\\\L=0.02 \ kg\ m^2\ rad /s\\[/tex]

Therefore , the angular momentum of cylinder pulley is [tex]0.02 \ kg\ m^2\ rad /s\\[/tex] .
