A small ball with mass 1.30 kg is mounted on one end of a rod 0.780 m
Question:
A small ball with mass 1.30 kg is mounted on one end of a rod 0.780 m long and of negligible mass. The system rotates in a horizontal circle about the other end of the rod at 5010 rev/min.
(a) Calculate the rotational inertia of the system about the axis of rotation.
(b) There is an air drag of 2.30 x 10-2 N on the ball, directed opposite its motion. What torque must be applied to the system to keep it rotating at constant speed?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
