A person pushing a horizontal, uniformly loaded, 26.90 kg wheelbarrow of length ? is attempting to get it over a step of height ℎ=0.470?, where ? is the wheel's radius. The center of gravity of the wheelbarrow is in the center of the wheelbarrow.
What is the horizontal component ??of the minimum force ?⃗ necessary to push the wheelbarrow over the step? The gravitational acceleration is ?=9.81 m/s2.
You are the technical consultant for an action-adventure film in which a stunt calls for the hero to drop off a 19-m-tall building and land on the ground safely at a final vertical speed of 5 m/s. At the edge of the building's roof, there is a 100-kg drum that is wound with a sufficiently long rope (of negligible mass), has a radius of 0.4 m, and is free to rotate about its cylindrical axis with a moment of inertia I0. The script calls for the 76-kg stuntman to tie the rope around his waist and walk off the roof.
(a) Determine an expression for the stuntman's linear acceleration in terms of his mass m, the drum's radius r, and moment of inertia I0.
(b) Determine the required value of the stuntman's acceleration if he is to land safely at a speed of 5 m/s.
A certain gyroscope consists of a uniform disk with a 50 cm radius mounted at the center of an axle that is 11 cm long and of negligible mass.The axle is horizontal and supported at one end. If the spin rate is 1000 rev/min, what is the precession rate?
