A marble on a hemisphereA marble of mass m is at rest at the apex of a hemisphere of radius R. It moves slightly andbegins sliding down the side of the hemisphere. At what angle û does the marble lose contactwith the surface of the hemisphere?R(This problem is from Douglas Giancoli's text, Physics for Scientists and Engineers, 2nd ed.(1989).Note: if you solve this problem correctly, you should discover that the angle is independent ofthe mass, gravitational constant, and the radius of the hemisphere – which, if you think aboutit, should be the case.

When an object is moving in circular path of radius R there will be a centripetal acceleration which…

An astronaut out on a spacewalk to construct a new section of the International Space Station walks with a constant velocity of 2.00 m/s on a flat sheet of metal placed on a flat, frictionless, horizontal honeycomb surface linking the two parts of the station. The mass of the astronaut is 75.0 kg, and the mass of the sheet of metal is 245 kg. a. What is the velocity of the metal sheet relative to the honeycomb surface? b. What is the speed of the astronaut relative to the honeycomb surface?
We watch two identical astronomical bodies A and B, each of mass m, fall toward each other from rest because of the gravitational force on each from the other. Their initial center-to-center separation is Ri. Assume that we are in an inertial reference frame that is stationary with respect to the center of mass of this twobody system. Use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy (Kf + Uf = Ki + Ui) to find the following when the centerto- center separation is 0.5Ri : (a) the total kinetic energy of the system, (b) the kinetic energy of each body, (c) the speed of each body relative to us, and (d) the speed of body B relative to body A. Next assume that we are in a reference frame attached to body A (we ride on the body). Now we see body B fall from rest toward us. From this reference frame, again use Kf + Uf = Ki + Ui to find the following when the center-to-center separation is 0.5Ri : (e) the kinetic energy of body B and (f) the speed of body B relative to body A. (g) Why…
A star with mass M and radius R collides head-on with another star of mass ¾*M and radius 4/5*R, and they coalesce to form a new start at rest whose radius is 6/5*R. Assume that initially the colliding stars had angular velocities with opposite directions but the same magnitude w. What is the magnitude and direction of the final’s stars angular velocity? (Express the magnitude as a fraction of w.)

Consider a large but thin sheet of plastic with a uniform −3.3 × 10-6 C/m2that is being held parallel to the xz-plane and passing through the origin.

For solid ojbject whose mass distribution does not allow for a simple determination of the center of mass by symmetry, the sums must be generalized to integrals where x and y are the coordinates of a small piece of an object that has mass dm. The integration is over the whole of the object. Consider a thin rod of length L, mass M, and cross-sectional area A. Let the origin of the coordinates be at the left end of the rod and the positive x-axis lie along the rod. a. If the density p = M/V of the object is uniform, perform the integration described above to show that the x-coordinate of the center of mass of the rod is at its geometrical center. b. If the density of the object varies linearly with x - that is, p = ax, where a is a positive constant - calculate the x-coordinate of the rod's center of mass.

Does the minimum length L increase, decrease, or remain the same if (b) the truck’s mass is decreased and (c) its speed is decreased?
