Chinook, a military helicopter, has two three-blade rotor systems, each turning in opposite directions. Each blade has a diameter of approximately 41 ft. The blades can spin at angular speeds of up to 225 rpm. Determine the translational speed of a particle located at the tip of a blade. Express your answer in ft/s, mph, m/s, and km/h.

A group of students wish to determine the density of a cylinder to beused in a design project. They plan to determine the density from measurementsof the cylinder's mass, length, and diameter, which have instrumentresolutions of 0.1 lbm, 0.05 in., and 0.0005 in., respectively.The balance used to measure the weight has an instrument uncertainty(accuracy) of 1 %. The rulers used to measure the length and diameterpresent negligible instrument uncertainties. Nominal values of the mass,length, and diameter are 4.5 lbm, 6.00 in., and 4.0000 in., respectively.(a) Estimate the zero-order uncertainty in the determination of the density.(b) Which measurement contributes the most to this uncertainty?(c) Estimate the design-stage uncertainty in the determination of thedensity.
Please help me answer this question and please show the solution for each indicated problem. A pitcher throws a fast ball that is moving at a speed of 80 mph. The batter hits the ball in the direction shown. The ball leaves the bat at a speed of 190 mph. If the bat and the ball are in contact for 0.030 seconds, determine the average impulse force exerted on the ball by the batter during the impact. The ball weighs 0.40 lbs.
A grindstone in the shape of a solid disk with diameter 0.520 m and a mass of 50.0 kg is rotating at 850 rev/min. You press an axe against the rim with a normal force of 160 N (see Figure below), and the grindstone comes to rest in 7.50 s. 1) What is the moment of inertia of the grindstone? 2) What force is bringing the grindstone to a stop? What is the net torque caused by that force? 3) What is the size of the force? 4) What is the coefficient of friction between the axe and the grindstone?
