Other Properties

In addition to the amount of wood calculated to be chucked, we can predict the velocity of the wood leaving the chuck and the kinetic energy of the wood.

Velocity:

@ 500 RPM the angular velocity at the Block Center of Mass is calculated by:
1 rev = 2(3.14)(13.625) = 85.6 cm
.856 m / 1 min * 1 min / 60 sec = .01427 m/s
500 * .01427 m/s = 7.135 m/s

the linear velocity at the Block Center of Mass is calculated by:
v = rw
v = (.13625)(7.135)
v = .79365 m/s

@2000 RPM the velocity at the Block Center of Mass is calculated by:
1 rev = 2(3.14)(13.625) = 85.6 cm
.856 m / 1 min * 1 min / 60 sec = .01427 m/s
2000 * .01427 m/s = 28.54 m/s

the linear velocity at the Block Center of Mass is calculated by:
v = rw
v = (.13625)(28.54)
v = 3.1746 m/s

Kinetic Energy:

Angular @ 500 RPM: KE = 1/2 Iw^2
I = SUM(mass * (radius)^2)
I = (4.0)(.075)^2 + (1.0)(13.625)^2
I = .041064
KE = ½(.041064)(5.825)^2
KE = 0.696665

Angular @ 2000 RPM: KE = 1/2 Iw^2
I = SUM(mass * (radius)^2)
I = (4.0)(.075)^2 + (1.0)(13.625)^2
I = .041064
KE = ½(.041064)( 23.3)^2
KE = 11.14663

Linear @ 500 RPM: KE = 1/2v^2
KE = ½( 0.793656)^2

Linear @ 2000 RPM: KE = 1/2v^2
KE = ½( 3.174625)^2
