Get started for freeA 750 g disk and a 760 g ring, both 15 cm in diameter, are rolling along a horizontal surface at 1.5 m/s when they encounter a 15° slope. How far up the slope does each travel before rolling back down?
A thin, uniform rod of length L and mass M is placed vertically on a horizontal table. If tilted ever so slightly, the rod will fall over.
a. What is the speed of the center of mass just as the rod hits the table if there’s so much friction that the bottom tip of the rod does not slide?
b. What is the speed of the center of mass just as the rod hits the table if the table is frictionless?
A merry-go-round is a common piece of playground equipment. A 3.0-m-diameter merry-go-round with a mass of 250 kg is spinning at 20 rpm. John runs tangent to the merry-go-round
at 5.0 m/s, in the same direction that it is turning, and jumps onto the outer edge. John’s mass is 30 kg. What is the merry-goround’s angular velocity, in rpm, after John jumps on?
The two blocks in FIGURE CP12.86 are connected by a massless rope that passes over a pulley. The pulley is 12 cm in diameter and has a mass of 2.0 kg. As the pulley turns, friction at the axle exerts a torque of magnitude 0.50 N m. If the blocks are released from rest, how long does it take the 4.0 kg block to reach the floor?
What is the rotational kinetic energy of the earth? Assume the earth is a uniform sphere. Data for the earth can be found inside the back cover of the book.
