Chapter 8, Problem 56EAP
A 100 g ball on a 60-cm-long string is swung in a vertical circle about a point 200 cm above the floor. The tension in the string when the ball is at the very bottom of the circle is 5.0 N. A very sharp knife is suddenly inserted, as shown in FIGURE P8.56, to cut the string directly below the point of support. How far to the right of where the string was cut does the ball hit the floor?

In the hammer throw, an athlete spins a heavy mass in a circle at the end of a cable before releasing it for distance. For male athletes, the "hammer" is a mass of 7.3 kg at the end of a 1.2 m cable, which is typically a 3.0-mm-diameter steel cable. A world-class thrower can get the hammer up to a speed of 29 m/s. If an athlete swings the mass in a horizontal circle centered on the handle he uses to hold the cable:
a. What is the tension in the cable?

- In the hammer throw, an athlete spins a heavy mass in a circle at the end of a cable before releasing it for distance as shown in (Figure 1). For male athletes, the "hammer" is a mass of 7.3 kg at the end of a 1.2 m cable, which is typically a 3.0-mm-diameter steel cable. A world-class thrower can get the hammer up to a speed of 29 m/s. If an athlete swings the mass in a horizontal circle centered on the handle he uses to hold the cable. (a) What is the tension in the cable? Neglect the gravity. (b) How much does the cable stretch? Young modulus for steel is 20×1010N/m220×1010N/m2.arrow_forwardA 560 g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 3.0 m/s. The rocket engine, when it is fired, exerts a 8.0 N vertical thrust on the rocket. Your goal is to have the rocket pass through a small horizontal hoop that is 20 m above the launch point. At what horizontal distance left of the loop should you launch?arrow_forwardWhy is the following situation impossible? A mischievous child goes to an amusement park with his family. On one ride, after a severe scolding from his mother, he slips out of his seat and climbs to the top of the rides structure, which is shaped like a cone with its axis vertical and its sloped sides making an angle of = 20.0 with the horizontal as shown in Figure P6.32. This part of the structure rotates about the vertical central axis when the ride operates. The child sits on the sloped surface at a point d = 5.32 m down the sloped side from the center of the cone and pouts. The coefficient of static friction between the boy and the cone is 0.700. The ride operator does not notice that the child has slipped away from his seat and so continues to operate the ride. As a result, the sitting, pouting boy rotates in a circular path at a speed of 3.75 m/s. Figure P6.32arrow_forward

What is the speed ?v of the ball as it rotates around the pole when the angle θ of the rope is 30.0∘ with the vertical?arrow_forwardIn the figure, a 105 g ball on a 58.6 cm rope is swung in a vertical circle about a point 255 cm above the ground. If the ball is swung at the slowest speed where the ball goes over the top of the circle without the rope having any slack and the rope is released when the ball is at the top of the loop, how far to the right does the ball hit the floor?arrow_forward
- Figure P9.75 shows a 100 g puck revolving at 100 rpm on a 20-cm-radius circle on a frictionless table. A string attached to the puck passes through a hole in the middle of the table. The end of the string below the table is then slowly pulled down until the puck is revolving in a 10-cm-radius circle. How many revolutions per minute does the puck make at this new radius?arrow_forwardA single bead can slide with negligible friction on a stiff wire that has been bent into a circular loop of radius 15.0 cm as shown in Figure P6.68. The circle is always in a vertical plane and rotates steadily about its vertical diameter with a period of 0.450 s. The position of the bead is described by the angle h that the radial line, from the center of the loop to the bead, makes with the vertical, (a) At what angle up from the bottom of the circle can the bead stay motionless relative to the turning circle? (b) What If? Repeat the problem, this time taking the period of the circle's rotation as 0.850 s. (c) Describe how the solution to part (b) is different from the solution to part (a), (d) For any period or loop size, is there always an angle at which the bead can stand still relative to the loop? (e) Are there ever more than two angles? Arnold Arons suggested the idea for this problem.arrow_forwardA bicycle with 0.80-m-diameter tires is coasting on a level road at 5.6 m/s.

- A 148 g ball is released from rest H = 1.51 m above the bottom track. It rolls down a straight 45° segment, then back up a parabolic segment whose shape is given by y = x2/4, where x and y are in m. How high will the ball go on the right before reversing direction and rolling back down?arrow_forwardPeter propels a penguin with mass 10.0kg from 2.50m above the ground at an angle 30.0o from the horizontal axis (ground), with an initial speed of 15.0 m/s. Assuming the penguin remains rigid (scared, so assume the particle model!) and ignoring any rotational effects, What is the maximum vertical height reached by the penguin? a. 5.37 meters b. 9.62 meters c. 2.87 meters d. 11.1 metersarrow_forwardThe grand jeté is a classic ballet maneuver in which a dancer executes a horizontal leap while moving her arms and legs up and then down. At the center of the leap, the arms and legs are gracefully extended, as we see in P7.81a. The goal of the leap is to create the illusion of flight. As the dancer moves through the air, he or she is in free fall. But what part of the dancer follows the usual parabolic path? It won’t come as a surprise to learn that it’s the center of gravity. But when you watch a dancer leap through the air, you don’t watch her center of gravity, you watch her head. If the translational motion of her head is horizontal—not parabolic—this creates the illusion that she is flying through the air, held up by unseen forces.P7.81b illustrates how the dancer creates this illusion. While in the air, she changes the position of her center of gravity relative to her body by moving her arms and legs up, then down. Her center of gravity moves in a parabolic path, but her head…arrow_forward
