If the earth warms significantly, the polar ice caps will melt. Water will move from the poles, near the earth’s rotation axis, and will spread out around the globe. In principle, this will change the length of the day. Why? Will the length of the day increase or decrease?
A three-blade wind turbine, which spins perpendicularly to the ground, is set on a pole that is 38 m tall and completes 5 revolutions in one minute. The length of one blade is approximately 4 m long. One particular blade lies parallel to the ground before the turbine started to spin.
b) What is the height of the tip of the blade after one second from start?

- Why is the following situation impossible? In a large city with an air-pollution problem, a bus has no combustion engine. It runs over its citywide route on energy drawn from a large, rapidly rotating flywheel under the floor of the bus. The flywheel is spun up to its maximum rotation rate of 3 000 rev/min by an electric motor at the bus terminal. Every time the bus speeds up, the flywheel slows down slightly. The bus is equipped with regenerative braking so that the flywheel can speed up when the bus slows down. The flywheel is a uniform solid cylinder with mass 1 200 kg and radius 0.500 m. The bus body does work against air resistance and rolling resistance at the average rate of 25.0 hp as it travels its route with an average speed of 35.0 km/h.arrow_forwardCarnivals often have large rotating cylinders and when these cylinders rotate fast enough the people inside feel pressed up against the wall and do not fall if the floor moves out from under them. While the cylinder is rotating, what forces are acting on a person inside and what is the direction of those forces?arrow_forwardThe dung beetle is known as one of the strongest animals for its size, often forming balls of dung up to 10 times their own mass and rolling them to locations where they can be buried and stored as food. A typical dung ball formed by the species K. nigroaeneus has a radius of 1.85 cm and is rolled by the beetle at 6.20 cm/s.arrow_forward
- A star rotates with a period of 30 days about an axis through its center. The period is the time interval required for a point on the star's equator to make one complete revolution around the axis of rotation. After the star undergoes a supernova explosion, the stellar core, which had a radius of 1.0 x 104 km, collapses into a neutron star of radius 3.0 km. Determine the period of rotation of the neutron star.arrow_forwardA variation of the amusement park ride discussed in Problem 11 is the Gravitron, which consists of a rotating cylinder, where riders stand with their backs against the inner surface of the cylinder (see image). As the cylinder rotates faster, riders get stuck to the wall. The effect is great enough, that in some rides, the floor even drops away. Let’s model the Gravitron as a rotating cylinder with vertical walls. The radius of the cylinder is 5.5 m. At one point during the ride, the speed of the Gravitron is 24 rpm, at which point a rider slides down the wall at constant speed. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the rider and the wall?arrow_forward6. A group of students from Physics 1310 go on an adventure of a lifetime - a trip to Antarctica over the thanksgiving break. While they happen to be there they drive their snowmobiles over to the middle of the continent to visit the South pole. They bring with them a piece of equipment from Regener Hall - the weighted bike wheel. One of the students stands on the exact South pole with the bike wheel held directly overhead, so that the rotation axis of the wheel is aligned with the rotation axis of the earth. The bike wheel has a mass of 5 kg and a radius of gyration of 311 mm, and is initially spinning at a frequency of 50 Hz - and the direction of w is up. With feet planted firmly in the snow, 4 the student tips the bike wheel over 180 degrees, so that w is pointing down. As a result of that action, does the length of the 24 hour day become shorter or longer? By how many seconds does the length of the day change as a result this action? Consider the earth to be sphere of uniform…arrow_forward
- A high-speed drill rotating counterclockwise at 2000 rpm comes to a halt in 3.0 s. a) What is the magnitude of the drill's angular acceleration? b) How many revolutions does it make as it stops?arrow_forwardVlad needs to draw water from a deep well. He is using a bucket that is connected by rope (negligible mass) to a wooden axle at the top of the well. By cranking a handle at the end of the axle, Vlad is able to unwind the rope around the axle and move the bucket downward. The radius of the axle is R = 30 cm. The bucket is traveling downward at speed vi = 25 cm/s when the handle slips out of Vlad’s hand. As the rope unwinds and the bucket falls downward, the axle spins freely with an angular acceleration whose magnitude is α = 4.5 rad/s^2. The bucket falls through a distance of d = 7.0 m before crashing into the water. 1. What is the angular speed ωf of the axle when the bucket first hits the water? 2. As d → 0, what limit does ωf approach and why?arrow_forwardA rotating platform of radius R = 2.7 cm is initially at rest. It then begins to move, such that a point on its edge experiences a tangential acceleration of at = 3.5 cm/s2. a)Write an expression that gives the radial acceleration on the edge of the platform as a function of time. b) Write an expression for the time at which the magnitudes of the radial and tangential accelerations at the edge will be equal.arrow_forward
- You sit at the middle of a large turntable at an amusement park as it is set spinning and then allowed to spin freely. When you crawl toward the edge of the turntable, does the rate of the rotation increase, decrease, or remain unchanged? What physics principle supports your answer?arrow_forwardAn empty barrel with a diameter of 1 meter is revolved about its center. Suppose a 1 kg trout is thrown into the barrel. How many revolutions per second must the barrel revolve at so that the trout slides down the interior of the barrel at constant speed if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the trout and barrel is μk = 0.1? 1 marrow_forwardA person is sitting at rest on a stool that is free to rotate about a vertical axis.
