Chapter 10, Problem 98PP
Referring to Conceptual Example 10-17 Suppose we race a disk and a hollow spherical shell, like a basketball. The spherical shell has a mass M and a radius R; the disk has a mass 2M and a radius 2R. (a) Which object wins the race? If the two objects are released at rest, and the height of the ramp is h = 0.75 m, find the speed of (b) the disk and (c) the spherical shell when they reach the bottom of the ramp.

Consider the system in the figure, in which a small mass m = 1.95 kg is sliding off the top of a cylindrical object. There is no friction between the mass and the cylinder, which has a radius of r = 0.46 m. At what height, relative to the bottom of the cylinder, will the mass leave the surface of the cylinder?
A solid cylinder is released from the top of an inclined plane of height 0.39 m. From what height, in meters, on the incline should a solid sphere of the same mass and radius be released to have the same speed as the cylinder at the bottom of the hill?
Modeled after the triatomic molecule problem that is let's consider the three atoms composing the molecule have different masses and coordinate, while the axis of rotation is still y-axis. The first atom has a mass of 6.778 kg, with x coordinate at 2.814 m and y coordinate at 9.967 m. The second atom has a mass of 48.003 kg, with x coordinate at 47.145 m and y coordinate at 17.003 m. The third atom has a mass of 43.312 kg, with x coordinate at 44.89 m and y coordinate at 22.657 m. What is the moment of inertia in the unit of kg m2 with respect to the y axis?
