(III) The 1100-kg mass of a car includes four tires, each of mass (including wheels) 35 kg and diameter 0.80 m. Assume each tire and wheel combination acts as a solid cylinder. Determine (a) the total kinetic energy of the car when traveling 95 km/h and (b) the fraction of the kinetic energy in the tires and wheels, (c) If the car is initially at rest and is then pulled by a tow truck with a force of 1500 N, what is the acceleration of the car? Ignore frictional losses. (d) What percent error would you make in part (c) if you ignored the rotational inertia of the tires and wheels?

- A space probe is fired as a projectile from the Earths surface with an initial speed of 2.00 104 m/s. What will its speed be when it is very far from the Earth? Ignore atmospheric friction and the rotation of the Earth.

The direction of the toss is to the left, as viewed by the observer, so the bowing ball starts to rotate counterclockwise when in contact with the floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction on the lane is 0.3. (a) What is the time required for the ball to come to the point where It is no slipping? What is the distance d to the point where the ball is rolling without slipping?arrow_forwardA circular disc of mass 5 kg and radius 1 m rotating with speed 60 rpm about a axis passing through a point on its circumference and lies in the plane of the disc.

- A wheel of mass M has radius R. It is standing vertically on the floor, and we want to exert a horizontal force Fat its axle so that it will climb a step against which it rests (Fig. 8–60). The step has height h, where h < R. What minimum force F is needed? R FIGURE 8-60 Problem 85.arrow_forwardA screwdriver turns a screw an angle of 5.85 radians by applying a torque given by (in Nm) 02 T=2.12 + 6. Calculate the work done, W by the torque.

A nonrotating rod, of the same mass as the disk and length equal to the disk's diameter, is dropped onto the freely spinning disk, Fig. 8–56. They then turn together around the axis with their centers superposed. What is the angular frequency in rev/s of the combination? FIGURE 8-56 Problem 72.arrow_forward76. Round and Round Little Jay is enjoying his first ride on a merry-go- round. (He is riding a stationary horse rather than one that goes up Av at 4 = 0 %3D and down.) A schematic view of the merry-go-round as seen from above is shown in Fig. 11-47a with a conve- nient coordinate system. A bit after the merry-go-round has started and is going around uniformly, we start our clock. Little Jay's position and velocity at time t dot and arrow. At t = 0 is the net force acting on Jay equal to zero? If it is, write "Yes" and give a reason why you think so. If it isn't, write “No" and specify the type of force and the object responsible for exerting it.
