Review. A piece of putty is initially located at point A on the rim of a grinding wheel rotating at constant angular speed about a horizontal axis. The putty is dislodged from point A when the diameter through A is horizontal. It then rises vertically and returns to A at the instant the wheel completes one revolution. From this information, we wish to find the speed v of the putty when it leaves the wheel and the force holding it to the wheel. (a) What analysis model is appropriate for the motion of the putty as it rises and falls? (b) Use this model to find a symbolic expression for the time interval between when the putty leaves point A and when it arrives back at A, in terms of v and g. (c) What is the appropriate analysis model to describe point A on the wheel? (d) Find the period of the motion of point A in terms of the tangential speed v and the radius R of the wheel. (e) Set the time interval from part (b) equal to the period from part (d) and solve for the speed v of the putty as it leaves the wheel. (f) If the mass of the putty is m, what is the magnitude of the force that held it to the wheel before it was released?

- A small particle of mass m is pulled to the top of a friction less half-cylinder (of radius R) by a light cord that passes over the top of the cylinder as illustrated in Figure P7.15. (a) Assuming the particle moves at a constant speed, show that F = mg cos . Note: If the particle moves at constant speed, the component of its acceleration tangent to the cylinder must be zero at all times. (b) By directly integrating W=Fdr, find the work done in moving the particle at constant speed from the bottom to the top of the hall-cylinder. Figure P7.15arrow_forwardA cord is wrapped around a pulley that is shaped like a disk of mass mand radius r. The cord's free end is connected to a block of mass M. The block starts from rest and then slides down an incline that makes an angle 0 with the horizontal as shown in Figure P10.48. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and incline is u. (a) Use energy methods to show that the block's speed as a function of position d down the incline is 4Mgd(sin 0 – µ cos 0) т+ 2M (b) Find the magnitude of the acceleration of the block in terms of µ, m, M, g, and 0. m M Figure P10.48arrow_forwardWhen the electricity goes out on your campus, a backup source powers the servers that handle communications and the Internet. Rather than use batteries, many installations use a flywheel, a heavy rotating disk that spins, very rapidly, with nearly zero friction. An electric motor spins up the flywheel, which continues to spin with very little energy input. When the system needs to provide power, the flywheel’s motion is used to turn an electric generator. A typical system has a 540 kg cylinder with a radius of 0.30 m. A small electric motor provides a constant 2.8 N ⋅ m torque to spin up the cylinder. If the cylinder starts at rest, how long does it take to reach its final spin rate of 13,000 rpm?arrow_forward

One engineer, Chersiphron, tried several different techniques to do this. One method was to cut pivot holes into the ends of the stone and then use oxen to pull the column. The 4ft diameter column weighs 12000lb, and the team of oxen generates a constant pull force of 1500lb on the center of the cylinder G. Knowing that the column starts from rest and rolls without slipping, determine the velocity of its center G after it has moved 5ft and the minimum static coefficient of friction that will keep it from slipping.arrow_forward

A cart moves with negligible friction or air resistance along a roller coaster track. The cart starts from rest at the top of a hill of unknown height. It then goes down that first hill and up another circularly shaped hill of height 10 meters and radius 15 meters. The ride is designed so that the cart just barely loses contact with the track at the top of the second hill (10 meters above ground level).
