The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the total kinetic energy of a disc rolling without slipping, we can break down the solution into several steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a disc with a mass \( m = 4.8 \, \text{kg} \) and radius \( r = 1 \, \text{m} \) rolling on a horizontal surface without slipping. The angular velocity is given as \( 600 \, \text{rotations/min} \). ### Step 2: Convert Angular Velocity to Radians per Second First, we need to convert the angular velocity from rotations per minute to radians per second. \[ \text{Angular velocity} (\omega) = 600 \, \text{rotations/min} \times \frac{2\pi \, \text{radians}}{1 \, \text{rotation}} \times \frac{1 \, \text{min}}{60 \, \text{s}} \] Calculating this gives: \[ \omega = 600 \times \frac{2\pi}{60} = 10 \times 2\pi = 20\pi \, \text{radians/s} \] ### Step 3: Determine the Linear Velocity Since the disc is rolling without slipping, the linear velocity \( V \) can be calculated using the relationship: \[ V = \omega \cdot r \] Substituting the values: \[ V = 20\pi \cdot 1 = 20\pi \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Translational Kinetic Energy The translational kinetic energy (\( KE_{\text{trans}} \)) is given by the formula: \[ KE_{\text{trans}} = \frac{1}{2} m V^2 \] Substituting the values: \[ KE_{\text{trans}} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4.8 \cdot (20\pi)^2 \] Calculating \( (20\pi)^2 \): \[ (20\pi)^2 = 400\pi^2 \] Thus, \[ KE_{\text{trans}} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4.8 \cdot 400\pi^2 = 960\pi^2 \, \text{J} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Rotational Kinetic Energy The rotational kinetic energy (\( KE_{\text{rot}} \)) for a disc is given by: \[ KE_{\text{rot}} = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2 \] For a disc, the moment of inertia \( I \) is: \[ I = \frac{1}{2} m r^2 \] Substituting the values: \[ I = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4.8 \cdot (1)^2 = 2.4 \, \text{kg m}^2 \] Now substituting \( I \) and \( \omega \): \[ KE_{\text{rot}} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2.4 \cdot (20\pi)^2 \] Calculating this: \[ KE_{\text{rot}} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2.4 \cdot 400\pi^2 = 480\pi^2 \, \text{J} \] ### Step 6: Calculate Total Kinetic Energy The total kinetic energy (\( KE_{\text{total}} \)) is the sum of the translational and rotational kinetic energies: \[ KE_{\text{total}} = KE_{\text{trans}} + KE_{\text{rot}} = 960\pi^2 + 480\pi^2 = 1440\pi^2 \, \text{J} \] ### Final Answer The total kinetic energy of the disc is: \[ \boxed{1440\pi^2 \, \text{J}} \]
