A small block with mass 0.0300 kgkg slides in a vertical circle of radius 0.425 mm on the inside of a circular track. During one of the revolutions of the block, when the block is at the bottom of its path, point AA, the magnitude of the normal force exerted on the block by the track has magnitude 3.90 NN . In this same revolution, when the block reaches the top of its path, point BB, the magnitude of the normal force exerted on the block has magnitude 0.675 NN . 1)How much work was done on the block by friction during the motion of the block from point AA to point BB?
A small block with mass 0.0450kg slides in a vertical circle of radius 0.600m on the inside of a circular track. During one of the revolutions of the block, when the block is at the bottom of its path, point A, the magnitude of the normal force exerted on the block by the track has magnitude 3.85N. In this same revolution, when the block reaches the top of its path, point B, the magnitude of the normal force exerted on the block has magnitude 0.660N. How much work was done on the block by friction during the motion of the block from point A to point B?
A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible? FIGURE P6.10 Problems 10 and 11.
Instead of moving back and forth, a conical pendulum moves in a circle at constant speed as its string traces out a cone (Fig. P6.68). One such pendulum is constructed with a string of length L = 12.0cm and bob of mass 0.210 kg. The string makes an angle = 7.00 with the vertical, a. What is the radial acceleration of the bob? b. What are the horizontal and vertical components of the tension force exerted by the string on the bob?
A light string can support a stationary hanging load of 25.0 kg before breaking. An object of mass m = 3.00 kg attached to the string rotates on a frictionless, horizontal table in a circle of radius r = 0.800 m, and the other end of the string is held fixed as in Figure P5.17. What range of speeds can the object have before the string breaks? Figure P5.17
Why is the following situation impossible? The object of mass m = 4.00 kg in Figure P5.18 is attached to a vertical rod by two strings of length = 2.00 m. The strings are attached to the rod at points a distance d = 3.00 m apart. The object rotates in a horizontal circle at a constant speed of v = 3.00 m/s, and the strings remain taut. The rod rotates along with the object so that the strings do not wrap on to the rod. What If? Could this situation be possible on another planet?
An owner of a speedboat loves high speed but doesn't want to go anywhere. So he tethers the speedboat to a fixed buoy by a strong cable of length 40.0 m40.0 m, which supplies all the centripetal force to run the boat in circles around the buoy. When the tension in the cable is steady at 13500 N13500 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat? Assume that the mass of the speedboat (including the driver) is 645 kg645 kg. Take the water's drag force to be (450 kg/m)×v2(450 kg/m)×v2, where vv denotes the boat's speed. Ignore any drag force on the cable. Be sure to include the free-body diagram for the boat.
