Question restatement: What is a rotational kinetic energy and what is its SI unit? Option a: 'The energy of an object moving in rotational motion, the unit is Joule' This answer correctly describes rotational kinetic energy as the energy associated with an object in rotational motion. The SI unit Joule matches the standard energy unit in physics, which is derived from force times distance. ......Login to view full explanation

We are constructing a last chance fire exit involving jumping off of a building tied to a cable that is wrapped around a barrel. In this design the person's mass (m) is 85 kg. The barrel mass (M) is 985 kg and has a radius (R) of 1.5 meters, and the building height (h) is 12 meters. Potential energy before the jump equals kinetic energy just before touchdown, so... mgh = 0.5mv2 +0.5(0.5MR2((v/R)2 What is the landing velocity?

An ice skater performs a fast spin by pulling outstretched arms down and close to her body. What happens to her kinetic energy with respect to the axis of rotation?  

Suppose a solid uniform cylinder rolls without slipping down an inclined plane (like in Figure 12.42). Once the object starts rolling then the rotational kinetic energy of the cylinder  

[table] In Professor Oak’s lab, a new Poké Ball launcher is being tested. The launcher uses a spinning platform shaped like a solid disk, with a mass of 2.90 kg and a diameter of 0.300 m. When powered on, a motor applies a constant torque, bringing the platform from rest to an angular speed of 1600 rpm in 4.2 seconds. How much work does the motor do during this spin-up process?
