Chapter 4, Problem 4.63AP
A flea is at point Ⓐ on a horizontal turntable, 10.0 cm from the center. The turntable is rotating at 33.3 rev/min in the clockwise direction. The flea jumps straight up to a height of 5.00 cm. At takeoff, it gives itself no horizontal velocity relative to the turntable. The Ilea lands on the turntable at point Ⓑ. Choose the origin of coor-dinates to be at the center of the turntable and the positive xaxis passing through Ⓐ at the moment of takeoff. Then the original position of the flea is 10.0i cm. (a) Kind die position of point Ⓑ when die Ilea lands. (b) Find die position of point Ⓑ when the flea lands.
