33. REASONING The angular displacement of the child when he catches the horse is, from Equation 8.2, c = c t . In the same time, the angular displacement of the horse is, from 2 Equation 8.7 with 0 = 0 rad/s, h = 1 If the child is to catch the horse 2 t . c = h + ( / 2) . SOLUTION Using the above conditions yields
1 t2 2
ct + 1 =0 2
1 2
or
1 (0.0100 2
rad ) = 0
The quadratic formula yields t = 7.37 s and 42.6 s; therefore, the shortest time needed to catch the horse is t = 7.37 s .
Since the tire rolls without slipping, the linear acceleration equals the tangential acceleration of a point on the outer edge of the tire: a = aT . Solving Equation 8.13 for gives
