An aircraft is coming in for a landing at a height of 300 m when the propeller falls off. The aircraft is flying at 43.0 m/s horizontally. The propeller can be modeled by three uniform rods, each 100 kg and 90 cm long, rotating about their ends. It has a rotation rate of 20.0 rev/s.
a. How much rotational kinetic energy does the propeller have when it hits the ground?
b. What about translational kinetic energy (when it hits the ground)?
a)
net mass of 3 rods
m = 3 * 100 = 300 kg
net rotational kE
kEr = 0.5 I w^2 = 0.5* (1/3) m L^2 * w^2
kEr = 0.5* (1/3)* 300* 0.9* 0.9* (20* 2*3.14)^2
kEr = ≈ 638902 J
kEr = 640 kJ
===========
b)
net mass of 3 rods
m = 3 * 100 = 300 kg
net translation kE
kEt = 0.5 m v^2 + mgh
kEt = 0.5* 300* 43^2 + 300* 9.8*300
kEt = 1159350
kEt = 1160 kJ

A propeller is modeled as five identical uniform rods extending radially from its axis. The length and mass of each rod are 0.753 m and 2.67 kg, respectively. When the propellor rotates at 513 rpm (revolutions per minute), what is its rotational kinetic energy? rotational kinetic energy:
An aircraft flying horizontally at a rate of 95.4 m/s drops a
packet from a height of 1,242 meters. Determine the speed the
package reaches at just the moment before touching the surface.
Consider both speed components.
If a body is dropped from a 401-foot-tall building, determine
the time in seconds it takes to reach the ground. (Free fall) enter
s as a unit of time.

A student sits on a freely rotating stool holding two weights, each of mass 4 kg.. When his arms are extended horizontally, the weights are 1.1 m from the axis of rotation and he rotates with an angular speed of 0.9 rad/s. The moment of inertia of the student plus stool is 3.0 kg-m2 and is assumed to be constant. The student pulls the weights inward horizontally to a position 0.4 m from the rotation axis. Find the new angular...
