As Tony the fisherman reels in a "big one" he turns the spool on his fishing reel at a constant rate of 3.6 revolutions every second. (a) When the outer radius of the fishing line on the spool is 3.4 cm, what is the linear speed of the fishing line as it is reeled in? cm/s (b) Later on, when enough string has accumulated on the spool so that its outer radius is now 6.8 cm, re-evaluate part a. cm/s (c) Suppose we split the total distance the fish must travel to the boat into two equal halves. Assuming Tony maintains this constant rotation rate, which half of the trip will take more time? ---Select--- the first half (from the catch point to the halfway point) the second half (from the halfway point to the boat) N/A - they will take the same time

Keratinocytes are the most common cells in the skins outer layer. As these approximately circular cells migrate across a wound during the healing process, they roll in a way that reduces the frictional forces impeding their motion. (a) Given a cell body diameter of 1.00 105 m (10 m), what minimum angular speed would be required to produce the observed linear speed of 1.67 107 m/s (10 m/min)? (b) How many complete revolutions would be required for the cell to roll a distance of 5.00 103 m? (Because of slipping as the cells roll, averages of observed angular speeds and the number of complete revolutions are about three times these minimum values.)
A point on a rotating turntable 20.0 cm from the center accelerates from rest to a final speed of 0.700 m/s in 1.75 s. At t = 1.25 s, find the magnitude and direction of (a) the radial acceleration, (b) the tangential acceleration, and (c) the total acceleration of the point.
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. The other end of the string passes through a hole in the center of the table, and a mass of m2 = 1.0 kg is tied to it (Fig. P7.27). The suspended mass remains in equilibrium while the puck on the tabletop revolves, (a) What is the tension in the string? (b) What is the horizontal force acting on the puck? (c) What is the speed of the puck? Figure P7.27
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 P6.48. 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 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 slay motionless relative to the turning circle? (b) What If? Repeat the problem, this time taking the period of the circles 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. Figure P6.48
In circular motion, a tangential acceleration can change the magnitude of the velocity but not its direction. Explain your answer.
As a compact disc (CD) spins clockwise as seen from above,information is read from it, starting with the innermost ring andmoving outward. When the information is being read from theinnermost ring, the CDs angular speed is 0 = 52.4 rad /s. TheCD slows down so that when information is read from the outermost ring, = 20.9 rad /s. It takes 74 min 33 s to read themusic from a particular CD. Find the constant angular acceleration of the CD.
One method of pitching a softball is called the wind-mill delivery method, in which the pitchers arm rotates through approximately 360 in a vertical plane before the 198-gram ball is released at the lowest point of the circular motion. An experienced pitcher can throw a ball with a speed of 98.0 mi/h. Assume the angular acceleration is uniform throughout the pitching motion and take the distance between the softball and the shoulder joint to be 74.2 cm. (a) Determine the angular speed of the arm in rev/s at the instant of release, (b) Find the value of the angular acceleration in rev/s2 and the radial and tangential acceleration of the ball just before it is released, (c) Determine the force exerted on the ball by the pitchers hand (both radial and tangential components) just before it is released.
Problems 62 and 63 are paired. 62. C A disk is rotating around a fixed axis that passes through its center and is perpendicular to the face of the disk. Consider a point on the rim of the disk (point R) and another point halfway between the center and the rim (point H) at one particular instant. a. How does the angular speed v of the disk at point H compare with the angular speed of the disk at point R? b. How does the tangential speed of the disk at point H compare with the tangential speed of the disk at point R? c. Suppose we pick a point H on the disk at random (by throwing a dart, for example), and we compare the speeds at that point with the speeds at point R. How will the answers to parts (a) and (b) be different? Explain.
Jeff, running outside to play, pushes on a swinging door, causing its motion to be briefly described by = t2 + 0.800 t + 2.00,where t is in seconds and is in radians. At t = 0 and at t = 1.50s, what are the a. angular position, b. angular speed, and c. angularacceleration of the door?
The tub of a washer goes into its spin cycle, starting from rest and gaining angular speed steadily for 8.00 s, at which time it is turning at 5.00 rev/s. At this point, the person doing the laundry opens the lid, and a safety switch turns off the washer. The tub smoothly slows to rest in 12.0 s. Through how many revolutions does the tub turn while it is in motion?
The dung beetle is known as one of the strongest animals for its size, often forming balls of dung up to 10 times their own mass and rolling them to locations where they can be buried and stored as food. A typical dung ball formed by the species K. nigroaeneus has a radius of 2.00 cm and is rolled by the beetle at 6.25 cm/s. (a) What is the rolling balls angular speed? (b) How many full rotations are required if the beetle rolls the ball a distance of 1.00 m?
