- Now that you know how to calculate the torque using components of vector r, plug in values from a trial of your choice. The mass of the weights in each trial are: Trial 1: 4.54 kg How can you use the tools available to measure the perpendicular component of r? (This time, limit yourself to only using the vertical line and the horizontal ruler.)arrow_forward9. If a passenger vehicle travels in a circular path at too high a speed, it can tip over. The image below shows a vehicle beginning to tip over. A group of students investigated the speed at which a passenger vehicle will begin to tip over by using a remote- control toy car. The students drove the car around circular paths of various known radii, at such a speed that it was just starting to tip for each radius. They timed the period of the cars motion and used the period to calculate the 'tipping speed' (the speed at which the toy car begins to tip over) of the car. The graph below shows the data collected by the students: Speed at which toy car begins to tip over (m s'¹') 14 12 10 8 TESTO 0 2 3 Radius (m) 5 6 7 Page 11arrow_forwardA three-blade wind turbine, which spins perpendicularly to the ground, is set on a pole that is 38 m tall and completes 5 revolutions in one minute.

- For each of the 6 scenarios given, sketch the situation (drawing r1, r2, r3, F1, F2, and F3) and determine the magnitude (value) and direction (+ or -) of each torque. Remember that the x value given in the table is the position of the hanging mass, but that might be different from the r value you need to use. Don't include the mass of a bracket that would hold the hanging mass in place; assume the mass listed is the entire mass hanging at that point.arrow_forwardA potter is shaping a bowl on a potter's wheel rotating at constant angular velocity of 1.8 rev/s.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Part B How long would it take for the potter's wheel to stop if the only torque acting on it is due to the potter's hands? The moment of inertia of the wheel and the bowl is 0.11kg⋅m2.
