How fast, in rpm, would a diameter bowling ball have to spin to have an angular momentum of ?
A toy gyroscope has a ring of mass M and radius R attached to the axle by lightweight spokes. The end of the axle is distance R from the center of the ring. The gyroscope is spun at angular velocity v, then the end of the axle is placed on a support that allows the gyroscope to precess. a. Find an expression for the precession frequency Ω in terms of M, R, v, and g. b. A 120 g, 8.0-cm-diameter gyroscope is spun at 1000 rpm and allowed to precess. What is the precession period?
A 120-cm-wide sign hangs from a 5.0 kg, 200-cm-long pole. A cable of negligible mass supports the end of the rod as shown in Figure P12.62. What is the maximum mass of the sign if the maximum tension in the cable without breaking is 300 N?
An 18-cm-long bicycle crank arm, with a pedal at one end, is attached to a 20-cm-diameter sprocket, the toothed disk around which the chain moves. A cyclist riding this bike increases her pedaling rate from 60rpm to 90 rpm in 10s .
a. What is the tangential acceleration of the pedal?
b. What length of chain passes over the top of the sprocket during this interval?
A 4.0 kg, 36 cm-diameter metal disk, initially at rest, can rotate on an axle along its axis. A steady 5.0 N tangential force is applied to the edge of the disk. What is the disk's angular velocity, in rpm, 4.0 s later?
