A double pulley shaped device mounted on a horizontal frictionless axis is used to lift a 30 kg box as shown in figure. The outer radius R of the device is 0.50 m, an the radius r of the hub is 0.20 m. When a constant horizontal force of magnitude 152 N is applied in the left direction to a rope wrapped around the outer circumference of the device, the box, which is suspended from a rope wrapped around the hub, has an upward acceleration of magnitude 0.80 . The rotational inertia (in ) of the device about its axis of rotation is . Fill in the OMR sheet.

Answer:
28
Solution:

For the box, T-30g=30(0.8), so T=324 N for g=10.

Net torque is FR-Tr=152(0.50)-324(0.20)=11.2 N m.

Angular acceleration is a/r=0.8/0.2=4 rad/s².

I=11.2/4=2.8 kg m², hence 10I=28.
