Problem 6: Consider two cylindrical objects of the same mass and radius. Object A is a solid cylinder, whereas object B is a hollow cylinder.
In the figure, a small disk of radius r-3.00 cm has been glued to the edge of a larger disk of radius R-6.00 cm so that the disks lie in the
same plane. The disks can be rotated around a perpendicular axis through point O at the center of the larger disk. The disks both have a
uniform density (mass per unit volume) of 1.40 x 103 kg/m³ and a uniform thickness of 6.00 mm. What is the rotational inertia of the
two-disk assembly about the rotation axis through O?

You are riding your bicycle on a city street, and you are staying a constant distance behind a car that is traveling at the speed limit of 30 mph. Estimate the diameters of the bicycle wheels and sprockets and use these estimated quantities to calculate the number of revolutions per minute made by the large sprocket to which the pedals are attached. Do a Web search if you aren’t familiar with the parts of a bicycle.

- John is pushing his daughter Rachel in a wheelbarrow when it is stopped by a brick 8.00 cm high (Fig. P12.15). The handles make an angle of = 15.0 with the ground. Due to the weight of Rachel and the wheelbarrow, a downward force of 400 N is exerted at the center of the wheel, which has a radius of 20.0 cm. (a) What force must John apply along the handles to just start the wheel over the brick? (b) What is the force (magnitude and direction) that the brick exerts on the wheel just as the wheel begins to lift over the brick? In both parts, assume the brick remains fixed and does not slide along the ground. Also assume the force applied by John is directed exactly toward the center of the wheel.arrow_forwardThree objects of uniform densitya solid sphere, a solid cylinder, and a hollow cylinderare placed at the top of an incline (Fig. CQ10.9).

(c) How does the time interval tdown, during which the ball moves from the surface down to its lowest point, compare with the lime interval tup for the return trip between the same two points?
