a pendulum of length L= 1.25 m. Its bob (which effectively has all the mass) has speed v0 when the cord makes an angle u0 =40.0 with the vertical. (a) What is the speed of the bob when it is in its lowest position if v0 = 8.00 m/s? What is the least value that v0 can have if the pendulum is to swing down and then up (b) to a horizontal position, and (c) to a vertical position with the cord remaining straight? (d) Do the answers to (b) and (c) increase, decrease, or remain the same if u0 is increased by a few degrees?
The figure shows a thin rod, of length L = 2.20 m and negligible mass, that can pivot about one end to rotate in a vertical circle. A heavy ball of mass m = 9.70 kg is attached to the other end. The rod is pulled aside to angle θ0 = 5.4° and released with initial velocity v→0 = 0. (a) What is the speed of the ball at the lowest point? (b) Does the speed increase, decrease, or remain the same ifthe mass is increased?

- A roller-coaster car shown in Figure P7.82 is released from rest from a height h and then moves freely with negligible friction. The roller-coaster track includes a circular loop of radius R in a vertical plane. (a) First suppose the car barely makes it around the loop; at the top of the loop, the riders are upside down and feel weightless. Find the required height h of the release point above the bottom of the loop in terms of R. (b) Now assume the release point is at or above the minimum required height. Show that the normal force on the car at the bottom of the loop exceeds the normal force at the top of the loop by six times the cars weight. The normal force on each rider follows the same rule. Such a large normal force is dangerous and very uncomfortable for the riders. Roller coasters are therefore not built with circular loops in vertical planes. Figure P5.22 (page 149) shows an actual design.arrow_forwardA small block of mass m = 200 g is released from rest at point along the horizontal diameter on the inside of a frictionless, hemispherical bowl of radius R = 30.0 cm (Fig. P7.45).

For this problem, we consider the Earth to be spherical. (Remember, the object at the equator traces a circular path, the object at the Pole does not.) G = 6.67 × 10−11 Nm2 kg−2, and the mass of the Earth is M = 5.97 × 1024 kg. How much more mechanical energy per kilogram does an object on the ground at the Equator than on the ground at the Pole?

- A center hurls a basketball m = 1 kg straight up with an initial speed of v0 = 7.5 m/s. He releases the ball at shoulder height h0 = 1.7 m. Let gravitational potential energy be zero at ground level. Give the total mechanical energy of the ball E in terms of maxium height hm it reaches, the mass m, and the gravitional acceleration g. What is the maxium height hm in meters?arrow_forwardA small rock with mass 0.22 kg is released from rest at point A, which is at the top edge of a large, hemispherical bowl with radius R = 0.58 m . Assume that the size of the rock is small compared to R, so that the rock can be treated as a particle, and assume that the rock slides rather than rolls. The work done by friction on the rock when it moves from point A to point B at the bottom of the bowl has magnitude 0.22 J. Between points A and B, how much work is done on the rock by the normal force? Between points A and B, how much work is done on the rock by gravity? What is the speed of the rock as it reaches point B? Of the three forces acting on the rock as it slides down the bowl, which (if any) are constant and which are not? Explain. Just as the rock reaches point B, what is the normal force on it due to the bottom of the bowl?arrow_forwardA small block of mass m=.5kg is fire with an initial speed of v0 = 4m/s alog a horizontal section of frictionless track. The block then moves along the frictionless, smicircular, vertical tracks of radius R= 1.5m a) Determine the force exerted by the track on the block at points A, middle of the semicircle, and B, end of the semicircle. b) The bottom of the track consists of a section (L = .4m) wit friction. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and that portion of the bottom track if the block just makes it up to the top track on the first trip around.( Hint: If the block makes it to the top track, the force of contact exerted by the track on the block at that point is zero.)arrow_forward
- A massless spring of constant k = 78.4 N/m is fixed on the left side of a level track. A block of mass m = 0.50 kg is pressed against the spring and compresses it a distance d , as in Figure P7.76. The block (initially at rest) is then released and travels toward a circular loop-the-loop of radius R = 1.5 m. The entire track and the loop-the-loop are frictionless, except for the section of track between points A and B Given that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the track along AB is μk 5 0.30, and that the length of AB is 2.5 m, determine the minimum compression d of the spring that enables the block to just make it through the loop-the-loop at point C. Hint: The force exerted by the track on the block will be zero if the block barely makes it through the loop-the-loop.arrow_forwardAn object with mass 818 grams is thrown at an angle with initial speed 2.45 m/s on a level field. What is its kinetic energy at the moment just before it lands? Your answer should be in Joules, but you don't need to write the unit, just the number.arrow_forwardA 4.0-kg particle moving along the x-axis is acted upon by the force whose functional form appears below. The velocity of the particle at x = 0 is v = 6.0 m/s. Find the particle’s speed at x = (a)2.0 m, (b)4.0 m, (c)10.0 m, (d) Does the particle turn around at some point and head back toward the origin?
