A ride at a carnival has four spokes to which pods are attached that can hold two people. The spokes are each 15 m long and are attached to a central axis. Each spoke has mass 200.0 kg, and the pods each have mass 100.0 kg. If the ride spins at 0.2 rev/s with each pod containing two 50.0-kg children, what is the new spin rate if all the children jump off the ride?
A child rolls a marble on a bent track that is 100 cm long as shown in Figure P2.8. We use x to represent the position of the marble along the track. On the horizontal sections from x = 0 to x = 20 cm and from x = 40 cm to x = 60 cm, the marble rolls with constant speed. On the sloping sections, the marbles speed changes steadily. At the places where the slope changes, the marble stays on the track and does not undergo any sudden changes in speed. The child gives the marble some initial speed at x = 0 and t = 0 and then watches it roll to x = 90 cm, where it turns around, eventually returning to x = 0 with the same speed with which the child released it. Prepare graphs of x versus t, vx versus t, and ax versus t, vertically aligned with their time axes identical, to show the motion of the marble. You will not be able to place numbers other than zero on the horizontal axis or on the velocity or acceleration axes, but show the correct graph shapes. Figure P2.8

Today, waterwheels are not often used to grind food. Instead, we have electrical devices such as blenders, choppers, and mixers. The electric motors in these devices are similar to a waterwheel, but instead of falling water causing the wheel to spin,electricity causes a shaft to spin. The specifications on a particular electric motor reports that at 1.75 103 rpm, it puts out5 hp. What is the corresponding torque in N m?
