Chapter 8, Problem 62GP
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?
b. How much does the cable stretch?

A Stone Age hunter stands on a cliff overlooking a flat plain. He places a 1.0 kg rock in a sling, ties the sling to a 1.0-m-long vine, then swings the rock in a horizontal circle around his head. The plane of the motion is 25 m above the plain below. The tension in the vine increases as the rock goes faster and faster. Suddenly, just as the tension reaches 200 N, the vine snaps. If the rock is moving toward the cliff at this instant, how far out on the plain (from the base of the cliff) will it land?
A bucket of mass equals 18.7 kg(mb) is knocked off the side of a wall. The bucket falls 18.6 m to the bottom of the well. Attached to the bucket is a light rope that wraps around a cylinder of radius equals 48.7 cm and mass(mc) equals 3.26 kg. How fast is the bucket falling just before it hits the ground
A string under a tension of 59.0 N is used to whirl a rock in a hortzontal circle of radius 2.45 m at a speed of 20.1 m/s on a frictionless surface as shown in the figure below. As the string is pulled in,
the speed of the rock increases. When the string on the table is 1.00 m long and the speed of the rock is 50.5 m/s, the string breaks. What is the breaking strength, in newtons, of the string?

- 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_forwardYou are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car with a mass of 115 kgkg. One part of the track is a vertical loop with a radius of 12.0 mm.

This height is not necessarily small compared with the radius RE of the earth. Ignoring air resistance, derive an expression for the speed v of the hammer when it reaches the earth’s surface.
