If you are using a wrench to loosen a very stubborn nut, you can make the job easier by using a “cheater pipe.” This is a piece of pipe that slides over the handle of the wrench, as shown in Figure Q7.4, making it effectively much longer. Explain why this would help you loosen the nut.

Another 1m long rope is tied to one of the blocks and connected to a rotating axle. The ropes can only hold 100N of tension before breaking. (Assume the ropes have no mass). !a.

How fast is the merry-go round moving (in m/s)? If the child begins to slip off the merry-go-round at this speed, what is the coefficient of friction between the child and the surface?arrow_forward2. A yo-yo consists of two solid disks, each of mass M and radius 3R. The two disks are connected by a rod of radius R and negligible mass. Assume the yo-yo starts at rest. a. Use the view on the right to draw the extended free body 3R diagram for the yo-yo. b. What is the moment of inertia of the yo-yo about an axis through its symmetry axis? м м c. Write Newton's 2nd law for the yo-yo. Choose your coordinate system carefully. d. Write the rotational form of Newton's 2nd law for the yo-yo. Treat the center of mass as being at the axis of rotation. Choose the positive direction of the rotation so a is positive. e. The point where the yoyo is momentarily at rest is where the string contacts the rod of the yo-yo. Use this to obtain a relation between the acceleration of the center of mass and the angular acceleration. f. Determine the linear acceleration of the yo-yo.arrow_forwardThe large quadriceps muscle in the upper leg ter- Quadriceps - Tendon minates at its lower end in a - Tibia tendon attached to the upper end of the tibia (Fig. P8.35a). The forces on the lower leg when the leg is extended are modeled as in Figure P8.35b, where T is the force of ten- a sion in the tendon, w is the force of gravity acting on the lower leg, and F is the force of gravity acting on the foot. Find T when the ten- 25.0° T don is at an angle of 25.0° with the tibia, assuming that w = 30.0 N, F = 12.5 N, and the leg is extended at an angle 0 of 40.0° with the ver- Figure P8.35 tical.

You can get a larger torque by adding a pole with a pulley on top, as in Q8.3b. Draw a diagram showing all of the forces acting on the mast and explain why, for the same tension in the rope, adding this pole increases the torque on the mast.arrow_forward

Three objects of equal mass, A, B, and C, are released from rest at the same instant from the same height on identical ramps. Objects A and B are both blocks, and they slide down their respective ramps without rotating. Object C rolls down the ramp without slipping. Its moment of inertia is unknown. All three objects are released from resti old lots B Objects A, B, and C are made of different materials, thus the coefficients of friction between the objects and their corresponding ramps are not necessarily the same. m = m, = mc Object A reaches the bottom of its ramp first, followed by objects B and C, which reach the bottom at the same instant. Rank the center-of-mass accelerations of objects A–C according to magnitude, from largest to smallest. If any objects have the same magnitude center-of-mass acceleration, state so explicitly.
