A 13.2-kg object hangs in equilibrium from a string with a total length of 6.00 m and a linear mass density of ? = 0.00500 kg/m. The string is wrapped around two light frictionless pulleys that are separated by a distance of d = 2.00 m. Two figures show a system of two pulleys and a block of mass m attached to each other with string in a triangular arrangement. The pulleys are at the top left and top right of the triangle, separated by a distance d. The block connects directly to the bottom corner of the triangle, pulled downward by gravity vector g. In figure (a), the string connecting the pulleys is completely horizontal and unmoving. In figure (b), the string connecting the pulleys is oscillating as a standing wave such that there is one and a half wavelengths between the pulleys. (a) Determine the tension in the string. N(b) At what frequency must the string between the pulleys vibrate in order to form the standing-wave pattern shown in Figure b?

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Determine the y coordinate of the center of gravity of the three coins. Express your answer with the appropriate units.
The figures shows a overhead view (they are lying onthe ground without any friction) long uniform rod of mass 0.600 kgis free to rotate in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis through itscenter. A spring with force constant k =1850 N/m is connectedhorizontally between one end of the rod and a fixed wall. When therod is in equilibrium, it is parallel to the wall.(a) Indicate all forces acting on the rod(b) Find the torque for a small displacement from theequilibrium position (use small angle approximation)(c) Show that the resulting motion is a simple harmonicoscillation and find its period.(d) Suppose you did the experiment and found that theamplitude of the oscillation decays exponentially as Exp[-bt]where b is a constant. Indicate what kind of forces couldmake sense of your observation and write down a Newton’sequation for it.
an irregularly shaped plastic plate withuniform thickness and density (mass per unit volume) is to berotated around an axle that is perpendicular to the plate faceand through point O. The rotational inertia of the plate about that axle is measured with the followingmethod. A circular disk of mass 0.500 kg andradius 2.00 cm is glued to the plate, with itscenter aligned with point O . Astring is wrapped around the edge of the diskthe way a string is wrapped around a top.Then the string is pulled for 5.00 s. As a result,the disk and plate are rotated by a constantforce of 0.400 N that is applied by thestring tangentially to the edge of the disk.The resulting angular speed is 114 rad/s.What is the rotational inertia of the plateabout the axle?
Your brother is opening a skateboard shop. He has created a sign for his shop made from a uniform material and in the shape shown in. The shape of the sign represents one of the hills in the skateboard park he plans on buildingon land adjacent to the shop. The curve on the top of the sign is described by the function y = (x – 3)2/9. When the sign arrives in his shop, your brother wants to hang it from a single wire outside the shop. But he doesn’t know where on the sign to attach the wire so that the bottom edge of the sign willhang in a horizontal orientation. He asks for your help.
Consider the sketch of a portion of a roller-coaster track seen in Figure P14.5. Identify places on the track that could be considered possible locations of static equilibrium for a rollercoaster car were the car to be placed at any spot on the track.Which places are candidate locations for stable, unstable, andneutral static equilibrium?

You are attending a county fair with your friend from your physics class. While walking around the fairgrounds, you discover a new game of skill. A thin rod of mass M = 0.500 kg and length = 2.00 m hangs from a friction-free pivot at its upper end as shown in Figure P11.43. The front surface of the rod is covered with Velcro. You are to throw a Velcro-covered ball of mass m = 1.0 kg at the rod in an attempt to make it swing backward and rotate all the way across the top. The ball must stick to the rod at all times after striking it. If you cause the rod to rotate over the top position, you win a stuffed animal. Your friend volunteers to try his luck. He feels that the most torque would be applied to the rod by striking it at its lowest end. While he prepares to aim at the lowest point on the rod, you calculate how fast he must throw the ball to win the stuffed animal with this technique. Figure P11.43
