In each of the following cases identify all objects in the surroundings that exert forces on the system, and draw a free-body diagram for the system. Assume that air resistance is negligible. (a) You hit a baseball with a bat. Choose the baseball as the system, and consider the instant of contact with the bat. (b) You are playing with a yo-yo. Choose the yo-yo as the system. As the yo-yo moves downward, you pull up on the string.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The free body diagram of the baseball as a system has been drawn below.

(b) The free body diagram of the yo-yo as a system has been drawn below.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data 

The given data is listed below,

The air resistance is negligible.

02

Significance of Newton’s first law for the objects

This law states that a body will continue to move in a straight line in a uniform motion if no external force acts on that body.

Newton’s first law helps in identifying the forces in the free body diagram of the baseball-bat system and the yo-yo system.

03

Determination of the free body diagram when baseball is considered a system

(a)

The forces that will act on the baseball if it is considered as the system are force due to the hitting of the bat and the force due to gravity.

The free-body diagram of the baseball and the bat is drawn below,

Here, Fbatis the force exerted by the bat on the baseball and Fgis the force due to the gravity.

(b) Determination of the free body diagram when the yo-yo is considered a system

The forces that will act on the baseball if it is considered as the system are force applied for pulling the yo-yo and the force due to gravity.

The free-body diagram of the yo-yo as a system has been drawn below-

Here, Fsis the force needed to pull up the yo-yo and Fgis force acting downwards due to the acceleration due to gravity.

In outer space a rock of mass 4kgis attached to a long spring and swung at constant speed in a circle of radius 9m. The spring exerts a force of constant magnitude 760N.

(a) What is the speed of the rock?

(b) What is the direction of the spring force?

(c)The relaxed length of the spring is 8.7m. What is the stiffness of this spring?

In the dark in outer space, you observe a glowing ball of known mass 2kgmoving in the xyplane at constant speed in a circle of radius, 6.5 m with the centre of the circle at the origin(0,0,0m). You can't see what's making it move in a circle. At time t=0 the ball is at location(-6,5,0,0)mand has velocity(0,40,0)m/s.

On your own paper draw a diagram of the situation showing. the circle and showing the position and velocity of the ball at time r=0. The diagram will help you analyse the situation. Use letters a-j figure 5.75) to answer questions about directions ( +xto the right, +yup).

At time:t=0

(a) What is the direction of the vectorp⇶Ä?

(b) What are the magnitude and direction localid="1656743973413" (d|p⇶Ä|dt)ÒÏofthe parallel component ofdp⇶Ä/dt?

(c) What are the magnitude and direction oflocalid="1656744314609" |p⇶Ä|dp⇶Ä/dt, the perpendicular component ofdp⇶Ä/dt?

(d) Even though you can't see what's causing the motion, what can you conclude must be the direction of the vectorF⇶Änet?

(e) Even though you can't see what's causing the motion, what can you conclude must be the vectorF⇶Änet?

(f) You learn that at time, two forces act on the ball, and that at this instant one of these forces isF⇶Ä1={196,-369,0}N. What is the other force?

P49 The Ferris wheel in Figure 5.80is a vertical, circular amusement ride with radius 10m . Riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal. The Ferris wheel rotates at a constant rate, going around once in 10.5s. Consider a rider whose mass is 56kg .

(a) At the bottom of the ride, what is the rate of change of the rider's momentum? (b) At the bottom of the ride, what is the vector gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the rider?

(c) At the bottom of the ride, what is the vector force exerted by the seat on the rider?

(d) Next consider the situation at the top of the ride. At the top of the ride, what is the rate of change of the rider's momentum?

(e) At the top of the ride, what is the vector gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the rider?

(f) At the top of the ride, what is the vector force exerted by the seat on the rider?

A rider feels heavier if the electric, interatomic contact force of the seat on the rider is larger than the rider's weight mg (and the rider sinks more deeply into the seat cushion). A rider feels lighter if the contact force of the seat is smaller than the rider's weight (and the rider does not sink as far into the seat cushion).

(g) Does a rider feel heavier or lighter at the bottom of a Ferris wheel ride?

(h) Does a rider feel heavier or lighter at the top of a Ferris wheel ride?

A block with mass 0.4 kgis connected by a spring of relaxed length 0.15 mto a post at the centre of a low-friction table. You pull the block straight away from the post and release it, and you observe that the period of oscillation is 0.6 s. Next you stretch the spring to a length of 0.28mand give the block an initial speed vperpendicular to the spring, choosing vso that the motion is a circle with the post at the centre. What is this speed?

A planet orbits a star in an elliptical orbit. At a particular instant the momentum of the planet is (-2.6×1029,-1.0×1029,0)kg.m/s, and the force on the planet by the star is (-2.5×1022,-1.4×1023,0)N. Find F∥and F⊥.
