A rotating disc moves in the positive direction of the x-axis. Find the equation `y(x)` describing the position of the instantaneous axis of rotation if at the initial moment of the centre `c` of the disc was located at the point O after which it moved with constant velocity v while the disc started rotating counterclockwise with a constant angular acceleration `alpha`. the initial angular velocity is equal to zero.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the coordinate of instantaneous centre of rotation at any time `t` be (x,y).
Now, `v=omegay`
`sqrt(2ax)=omegay`
`:. y^2=((2a)/omega^(2))x(parabola)`
b. `v=omegay`
`v=(ax y)/v`
`:. xy=(v^(2))/alpha=` constant (rectangular hyperbola)

A frame of reference that is accelerated with respect to an inertial frame of reference is called a non-inertial frame of reference. A coordinate system fixed on a circular disc rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular velocity omega is an example of non=inertial frame of reference. The relationship between the force vecF_(rot) experienced by a particle of mass m moving on the rotating disc and the force vecF_(in) experienced by the particle in an inertial frame of reference is vecF_(rot)=vecF_(i n)+2m(vecv_(rot)xxvec omega)+m(vec omegaxx vec r)xxvec omega . where vecv_(rot) is the velocity of the particle in the rotating frame of reference and vecr is the position vector of the particle with respect to the centre of the disc. Now consider a smooth slot along a diameter fo a disc of radius R rotating counter-clockwise with a constant angular speed omega about its vertical axis through its center.
