Get started for freeA hill has a height h. A child on a sled (total mass m) slide down starting from rest at the top. Does the speed at the bottom depends on the angle of hill if (a) it is icy and there is no friction, and (b) there is friction (deep snow)? Explain your answers.
Analyze the motion of a simple swinging pendulum in terms of energy, (a) ignoring friction, and (b) taking friction into account. Explain why a grandfather clock has to be wound up.
The blades in a blender rotate at a rate of 6500 rpm. When the motor is turned off during operation, the blades slow to rest in 4.0 s. What is the angular acceleration as the blades slow down?
Two inclines have the same height but make different angles with the horizontal. The same steel ball rolls without slipping down each incline. On which incline will the speed of the ball at the bottom be greater? Explain.
A rectangular block of wood floats in a calm lake. Show that, if friction is ignored, when the block is pushed gently down into the water and then released, it will then oscillate with SHM. Also, determine an equation for the force constant.
