A puck of mass m=1.50 kgslides in a circle of radiusr=20.0 cmon a frictionless table while attached to a hanging cylinder of massM=2.50 kgby means of a cord that extends through a hole in the table (Fig. 6-43). What speed keeps the cylinder at rest?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The speed that keeps the cylinder at rest is 1.81″¾/²õ.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

  • Mass of pluck,m=1.50kg.
  • Mass of hanging cylinder,M=2.50kg.
  • The radius of the circle, r=20.0cm.
02

To understand the concept

The problem deals with the centripetal force. It is a force that makes a body follow a curved path.For the puck to remain at rest, the magnitude of the tension forceTof the cord must equal the gravitational forceMgon the cylinder. The tension force supplies the centripetal force that keeps the puck in its circular orbit.

03

To calculate the speed that keeps the cylinder at rest

In the equilibirum condition:

Tensionforce=CentripetalforceT=mv2/r

But,

T=Mg

Thus,

Mg=mv2/r

We solve for the speed as:

v=Mgrm

Substitute the values, and we get,

v=(2.50 k²µ)(9.80″¾/²õ2)(0.200″¾)1.50 k²µv=1.81″¾/²õ

Thus, the speed that keeps the cylinder at rest is 1.81″¾/²õ

A circular curve of highway is designed for traffic moving at 60 km/h. Assume the traffic consists of cars without negative lift. (a) If the radius of the curve is 150 m, what is the correct angle of banking of the road? (b) If the curve were not banked, what would be the minimum coefficient of friction between tires and road that would keep traffic from skidding out of the turn when traveling at60 km/h?

A block is pushed across a floor by a constant force that is applied at downward angle θ(Fig. 6-19). Figure 6-36 gives the acceleration magnitude a versus a range of values for the coefficient of kinetic friction μkbetween block and floor: a1=3.0m/s, μk2=0.20, μk3=0.40.What is the value of θ?

In Fig. 6-59, block 1 of massm1=2.0kgand block 2 of massm2=1.0kgare connected by a string of negligible mass. Block 2 is pushed by force of magnitude 20 Nand angleθ=35°. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each block and the horizontal surface is 0.20. What is the tension in the string?

A bolt is threaded onto one end of a thin horizontal rod, and the rod is then rotated horizontally about its other end. An engineer monitors the motion by flashing a strobe lamp onto the rod and bolt, adjusting the strobe rate until the bolt appears to be in the same eight places during each full rotation of the rod (Fig. 6-42). The strobe rate is2000flashes per second; the bolt has mass30gand is at radius3.5cm. What is the magnitude of the force on the bolt from the rod?
