    The moment of inertia of a body about a given axis 1.2 kg m2. To produce rotational K.E. of 1500 J an angular acceleration of\[25\text{ }rad/se{{c}^{2}}\]must be applied about that axis for:

    A)  10 sec       

    B)  8 sec

    C)  2 sec           

    D)  4 sec

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Here: Moment of inertia \[I=1.2\text{ }kg\text{ }{{m}^{2}}\] Rotational kinetic energy \[k=1500\text{ }J\] Angular acceleration \[\alpha =25\text{ }rad/se{{c}^{2}}\] Using the relation for the rotational kinetic energy is given by as \[KE=\frac{1}{2}I{{\omega }^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2{{\omega }^{2}}\] Or \[1500=\frac{1}{2}1.2{{\omega }^{2}},\] So, \[{{\omega }^{2}}=\frac{1500\times 2}{1.2},\] So, \[\omega =50\,rad/\sec \] Hence time\[T=\frac{\omega }{\alpha }=\frac{50}{25}=2\sec \]
