The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.510-3s , radius 10.0 km, and mass 2.81030kg .

- Why 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_forwardSophia is playing with a set of wooden toys, rolling them offthe table and onto the floor. One of the toys is a small spherewith a mass of 0.024 kg and a radius of 0.020 m, and another isa small cylinder that also has a mass of 0.024 kg but a radius of0.013 m.

- You are working during your summer break as an amusement park ride operator. The ride you are controlling consists of a large vertical cylinder that spins about its axis fast enough that any person inside is held up against the wall when the floor drops away (Fig. P6.7). The coefficient of static friction between a person of mass m and the wall is s, and the radius of the cylinder is R. You are rotating the ride with an angular speed suggested by your supervisor. (a) Suppose a very heavy person enters the ride. Do you need to increase the angular speed so that this person will not slide down the wall? (b) Suppose someone enters the ride wearing a very slippery satin workout outfit. In this case, do you need to increase the angular speed so that this person will not slide down the wall? Figure P6.7arrow_forward(a) What is the angular momentum of the Moon in its orbit around Earth? (b) How does this angular momentum compare with the angular momentum of the Moon on its axis? Remember that the Moon keeps one side toward Earth at all times. (c) Discuss whether the values found in parts (a) and (b) seem consistent with the fact that tidal effects with Earth have caused the Moon to rotate with one side always facing Earth.arrow_forwardProblems 62 and 63 are paired. 62. C A disk is rotating around a fixed axis that passes through its center and is perpendicular to the face of the disk. Consider a point on the rim of the disk (point R) and another point halfway between the center and the rim (point H) at one particular instant. a. How does the angular speed v of the disk at point H compare with the angular speed of the disk at point R? b. How does the tangential speed of the disk at point H compare with the tangential speed of the disk at point R? c. Suppose we pick a point H on the disk at random (by throwing a dart, for example), and we compare the speeds at that point with the speeds at point R. How will the answers to parts (a) and (b) be different? Explain.arrow_forward

The observer is an ant at rest on the Frisbee.arrow_forwardOne method of pitching a softball is called the wind-mill delivery method, in which the pitchers arm rotates through approximately 360 in a vertical plane before the 198-gram ball is released at the lowest point of the circular motion. An experienced pitcher can throw a ball with a speed of 98.0 mi/h. Assume the angular acceleration is uniform throughout the pitching motion and take the distance between the softball and the shoulder joint to be 74.2 cm. (a) Determine the angular speed of the arm in rev/s at the instant of release, (b) Find the value of the angular acceleration in rev/s2 and the radial and tangential acceleration of the ball just before it is released, (c) Determine the force exerted on the ball by the pitchers hand (both radial and tangential components) just before it is released.arrow_forward
