QJEEM22Ph4e45: JEE Main 2022 Physics - Class 11 JEEM22Ph4e45 Solution: A pulley of radius is rotated about its axis by a force applied …

A pulley of radius 1.5 m1.5 \mathrm{~m} is rotated about its axis by a force F=(12t−3t2)NF=\left(12 \mathrm{t}-3 \mathrm{t}^{2}\right) N applied tangentially (while t is measured in seconds). If moment of inertia of the pulley about its axis of rotation is 4.5 kg m24.5 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{2} , the number of rotations made by the pulley before its direction of motion is reversed, will be Kπ\frac{K}{\pi} . The value of K is ___________.

JEE Main 2022 (Online) 27th July Morning Shift Physics - Rotational Motion Question 62 English Explanation

FR=IαFR = I\alpha

α=(12t−3t2)×1.54.5=4t−t2\alpha = {{(12t - 3{t^2}) \times 1.5} \over {4.5}} = 4t - {t^2}

w=∫α dt=2t2−t33w = \int {\alpha \,dt = 2{t^2} - {{{t^3}} \over 3}}

w=0w = 0

⇒t2[2−t3]=0\Rightarrow {t^2}\left[ {2 - {t \over 3}} \right] = 0

t=6t = 6 sec

θ=∫06[2t2−t33]dt=[2t33−t412]∣06\left. {\theta = \int\limits_0^6 {\left[ {2{t^2} - {{{t^3}} \over 3}} \right]dt = \left[ {{{2{t^3}} \over 3} - {{{t^4}} \over {12}}} \right]} } \right|_0^6

=[23×63−6412]=36= \left[ {{2 \over 3} \times {6^3} - {{{6^4}} \over {12}}} \right] = 36

n=362πn = {{36} \over {2\pi }}

=18π= {{18} \over \pi }
