4.12). As given in Figure 4, a thin uniform rod with mass M 3 kg and length I=0.4 m isfixed at one end and positioned horizontally. It swings after being released and collides with astationary block of mass m=1 kg at the lowest point of its swing. Then the block sticks to the lowerend of the rod and they keep swinging together until the rod makes an angle θ with the vertical. Findthe maximum value of θ that the rod block system can move up to. The moment of inertia of the rodabout its center is I rod=1/12mRod L^2
The thin, homogeneous, circular disk B rotates about a fixed, frictionless axis O, located at its centre, with an angular velocity of ω = 2.5 rad/s (clockwise). Object Alands on the disk at the indicated position where θ = 53o, with an absolute velocity of 1.8 m/s at an angle of ψ = 25o as shown. Determine the angular speed of disk Bimmediately after object A has landed and rotates with B. Take the mass of the object as mA = 5 kg and the radius of gyration about an axis passing perpendicularly through its centre of gravity as kG = 0.18 m. The mass of disk B is mB = 14 kg and its radius is R = 1.7 m. Initially object A is a distance of r = 1.1 m from the axis of rotation. Choose the correct answer: a) 2.500 rad/s b) 1.737 rad/s c) 2.088 rad/s d) 2.252 rad/s e) 1.642 rad/s
As the drawing illustrates, two disks with masses m1 and m2 are moving horizontally to the right at a speed of v0. They are on an airhockey table, which supports them with an essentially frictionless cushion of air. They move as a unit, with a compressed spring between them, which has a negligible mass. Then the spring is released and allowed to push the disks outward. Consider the situation where disk 1 comes to a momentary halt shortly after the spring is released. Assuming that m1 = 1.2 kg, m2 = 2.3 kg, and v0 = +4.1 m/s, find the velocity of disk 2 at that moment.
A hiker inspects a tree frog sitting on a small stick in his hand.Suddenly startled, the hiker drops the stick from rest at aheight of 1.85 m above the ground and, at the same instant,the frog leaps vertically upward, pushing the stick down sothat it hits the ground 0.450 s later. Find the height of the frogat the instant the stick hits the ground if the frog and the stickhave masses of 7.25 g and 4.50 g, respectively. (Hint: Find thecenter-of-mass height at t = 0.450 s for the frog–stick systemand then use the definition of center of mass to solve for thefrog’s height.)
A diver (m = 60 kg) jumps from a diving board. At takeoff, his angular momentum about the transverse axis is 30 kg⋅m2/s. His radius of gyration about the transverse axis is 0.5 m at this instant. During the dive, he tucks and reduces his radius of gyrations about the transverse axis to 0.2 m. After he tucks the body, what is his angular velocity about the transverse axis?
A 45 kg figure skater is spinning on the toes of her skates at 1.3 rev/s. Her arms are outstretched as far as they will go. In this orientation, the skater can be modeled as a cylindrical torso (40 kg, 20 cm average diameter, 160 cm tall) plus two rod-like arms (2.5 kg each, 71 cm long) attached to the outside of the torso. The skater then raises her arms straight above her head. In this latter orientation, she can be modeled as a 45 kgkg, 20cm-diameter, 200-cm-tall cylinder. The answer is given as 8.35 rev/s and I'm not sure how they got that
2.50 kg particle that is moving horizontally over a floor with velocity (-3.00 m/s)ˆj undergoes a completely inelastic collision with a 4.00 kg particle that is moving horizontally over the floor with velocity (4.50 m/s)iˆ. The collision occurs at xy coordinates (-0.500 m, -0.100 m). After the collision and in unit-vector notation, what is the angular momentum of the stuck-together particles with respect to the origin?
