The proton is traveling at a constant speed of 5.5 × 105 m/s, and the radius of the kissing circle is 0.02 m. The mass of a proton is 1.7 × 10-27 kg. When the proton is at location A, what are the magnitude and direction (d|p→|/d⁢t)(p^) of the parallel component of dp→/d⁢t?
An air puck of mass m1 = 0.25 kg is tied to a siring and allowed to revolve in a circle of radius R = 1.0 m on a frictionless horizontal table.

On the International Space Station an object with mass m = 440 g is attached to a massless string of length L = 0.61 m. The string can handle a tension of T = 5.8 N before breaking. The object undergoes uniform circular motion, being spun around by the string horizontally.What is the maximum speed v the mass can have before the string breaks? Give your answer in units of m/s.
A device for acclimating military pilots to the high accelerations they must experience consists of a horizontal beam that rotates horizontally about one end while the pilot is seated at the other end.

A bob of mass m = 0.300 kg is suspended from a fixed point with a massless string of length L = 22.0 cm . You will investigate the motion in which the string traces a conical surface with half-angle θ = 19.0 ∘.

Assume the earth is a uniform sphere of mass M and radius R. As strange as it may sound, if one can dig a long tunnel from one side of the Earth straight through the center and exit the other end, any object falling into the tunnel will appear at the other end (i.e. the opposite side of the Earth) in just 2530 s (42.2 min). Call that time t. Let t be a function of G, M, and R, where G = 6.67 x 10^-11 m3 kg−1 s−2 is the Universal Gravitational Constant, M = 5.98 x 10^24 kg, and R = 6400 km. (a) From dimensional analysis alone find the expression for t, up to a numerical constant c.(b) Determine the value of c by using the above values in the expression found in part (a).
A sample of blood is placed in a centrifuge of radius 16.0 cm. The mass of a red blood cell is 3.0×10−163.0×10−16 kg, and the magnitude of the force acting on it as it settles out of the plasma is 4.0×10−114.0×10−11 N. At how many revolutions per second should the centrifuge be operated?
A single bead can slide with negligible friction on a stiff wire that has been bent into a circular loop of radius 15.0 cm as shown in Figure P6.68. The circle is always in a vertical plane and rotates steadily about its vertical diameter with a period of 0.450 s. The position of the bead is described by the angle h that the radial line, from the center of the loop to the bead, makes with the vertical, (a) At what angle up from the bottom of the circle can the bead stay motionless relative to the turning circle? (b) What If? Repeat the problem, this time taking the period of the circle's rotation as 0.850 s. (c) Describe how the solution to part (b) is different from the solution to part (a), (d) For any period or loop size, is there always an angle at which the bead can stand still relative to the loop? (e) Are there ever more than two angles? Arnold Arons suggested the idea for this problem.
