In outer space two space modules are joined together by a massless cable. These probes are rotating about their center of mass, which is at the center of the wire, because the modules are identical (see the figure). In each probe, the cable is connected to a motor, so that the modules can pull each other together. The initial tangential speed of each module is vo= 10.6 m/s. Then they pull together until the distance between them is reduced by a factor of 3. Determine the final tangential speed, which is v/ for each module. Number Units Center of mass

In a Beams ultracentrifuge, the rotor is suspended magnetically in a vacuum. Since there is no mechanical connection to the rotor, the only friction is the air resistance due to the few air molecules in the vacuum. If the rotor is spinning with an angular speed of 5.00 × 105 rad/s and the driving force is turned off, its spinning slows down at an angular rate of magnitude 0.400 rad/s2. The rotor of the Beams ultracentrifuge is a rod 42.8 cm long, turning about a perpendicular axis through its center. For a point at the end of the rotor, find the initial speed in m/s For a point at the end of the rotor, find the magnitude of the tangential acceleration component in m/s^2 For a point at the end of the rotor, find the maximum radial acceleration component In m/s^2

A uniform rod of mass 100 g and length 50.0 cm rotates in a horizontal plane about a fixed, vertical, frictionless pin through its center. Two small beads, each of mass 31.0 g, are mounted on the rod so that they are able to slide without friction along its length. Initially the beads are held by catches at positions 10.0 cm on each side of center: at which time the system rotates at an angular speed of 18.0 rad/s. Suddenly, the catches are released and the small beads slide outward along the rod. (a) Find the angular speed of the system at the instant the beads reach the ends of the rod. rad/s(b) What if the beads fly off the ends? What is the angular speed of the rod after this occurs?
Double collar C is articulated so that one of the rings slides on the stationary rod and the other on the rotating rod AB. Determine the required constant angular velocity ?̇ for rod AB, since the mechanism is designed to have a maximum speed of 6m / s that can be given to the ring. The path followed on the fixed bar is r = 0.4 sin ? + 0.2 ?.

Ignore the vertical rod that connects the fan to the motor. d) Calculate the moment of inertia, in units of kilogram meters squared, of the whole fan about the rotation axis.

In the cartoon we have a hoop ready to roll without slipping from a height “h.” The radius of the hoop is “r” and its mass is “m.” When it is released from rest, it will roll without slipping toward the loop-the-loop. The loop-the-loop has a radius “R.” The hoop sidesteps the loop-the-loop at first with a negligible offset in the z-direction in order to enter it. You may assume that the hoop radius “r” is much much less than “R” so that the point of contact of the hoop can be treated as if it is in the center-of-mass location of the hoop for brevity. I just had to draw the hoop out of scale so you can see it. Here h = 26 meters and R = 10 meters. Air resistance is negligible. a) What is the speed of the hoop when it reaches the top of the loop-the-loop if it is locked to the path? Show your work. b) Now we unlock the hoop from the path. Will the hoop make it all the way around the loop-theloop, or will it fall off and crash? HINT: You may want to sum to forces on the hoop at the top of…
An electric motor turns a flywheel through a drive belt that joins a pulley on the motor and a pulley that is rigidly attached to the flywheel as shown in Figure P10.37. The flywheel is a solid disk with a mass of 80.0 kg and a radius R = 0.625 m. It turns on a frictionless axle. Its pulley has much smaller mass and a radius of r = 0.230 m. The tension Tu in the upper (taut) segment of the belt is 135 N, and the flywheel has a clockwise angular acceleration of 1.67 rad/s2. Find the tension in the lower (slack) segment of the belt.
