In her hand, a softball pitcher swings a ball of mass 0.255 kg around a vertical circular path of radius 60.6 cm before releasing it from her hand. The pitcher maintains a component of force on the ball of constant magnitude 30.6 N in the direction of motion around the complete path. The speed of the ball at the top of the circle is 14.9 m/s. If she releases the ball at the bottom of the circle, what is it speed upon release?
A horizontal force of 310 N is exerted on a 2.0-kg ball as it rotates (at arm’s length) uniformly in a horizontal circle of radius 0.90 m. Calculate the speed of the ball.
An object of mass 1.0 kg moves in a circle of radius 1.0 m at constant speed of 2.0 m/s. Find the work done by the centripetal force that accelerates the object. [centripetal force = mv2/r]

- A car of mass 1 230 kg travels along a circular road of radius 60.0 m at 18.0 m/s. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the cars centripetal acceleration. (b) What is the magnitude of the force of static friction acting on the car? (See Section 7.4.)arrow_forwardA light string can support a stationary hanging load of 25.0 kg before breaking. An object of mass m = 3.00 kg attached to the string rotates on a frictionless, horizontal table in a circle of radius r = 0.800 m, and the other end of the string is held fixed as in Figure P5.17. What range of speeds can the object have before the string breaks? Figure P5.17arrow_forwardA bicycle is turned upside down while its owner repairs a flat tire. A friend spins the other wheel and observes that drops of water fly off tangentially. She measures the heights reached by drops moving vertically (Fig. P7.8). A drop that breaks loose from the tire on one turn rises vertically 54.0 cm above the tangent point. A drop that breaks loose on the next turn rises 51.0 cm above the tangent point. The radius of the wheel is 0.381 m. (a) Why does the first drop rise higher than the second drop? (b) Neglecting air friction and using only the observed heights and the radius of the wheel, find the wheels angular acceleration (assuming it to be constant).

- Artificial gravity is produced in a space station by rotating it, so it is a noninertial reference frame. The rotation means that there must be a centripetal force exerted on the occupants: this centripetal force is exerted by the walls of the station. The space station in Arthur C. Clarkes 2001: A Space Odyssey is in the shape of a four-spoked wheel with a diameter of 155 m. If the space station rotates at a rate of 2.40 revolutions per minute, what is the magnitude of the artificial gravitational acceleration provided to a space tourist walking on the inner wall of the station?arrow_forwardA childs toy consists of a small wedge that has an acute angle (Fig. P6.28). The sloping side of the wedge is frictionless, and an object of mass m on it remains at constant height if the wedge is spun at a certain constant speed. The wedge is spun by rotating, as an axis, a vertical rod that is firmly attached to the wedge at the bottom end. Show that, when the object sits at rest at a point at distance L up along the wedge, the speed of the object must be v = (gL sin )1/2. Figure P6.28arrow_forwardWhy is the following situation impossible? A softball pitcher has a strange technique: she begins with her hand at rest at the highest point she can reach and then quickly rotates her arm backward so that the ball moves through a half-circle path. She releases the ball when her hand reaches the bottom of the path. The pitcher maintains a component of force on the 0.180-kg ball of constant magnitude 12.0 N in the direction of motion around the complete path. As the ball arrives at the bottom of the path, it leaves her hand with a speed of 25.0 m/s.arrow_forward
