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, Fbat→is the force exerted by the bat on the baseball and Fg→is the force due to the gravity

04

(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, Fs→is the force needed to pull up the yo-yo andFg→ is force acting downwards due to the acceleration due to gravity.

The orbit of the Earth around the Sun is approximately circular, and takes one year to complete. The Earth's mass is 6×1024kg, and the distance from the Earth to the Sun is 1.5×1011m. What is (dp→\/dt)pof the Earth? What is p(dp/dt)of the Earth? What is the magnitude of the gravitational force the Sun (mass 2×1030kg) exerts on the Earth? What is the direction of this force?

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/sand the force on the planet by the star is (-2.5×1022,1.4×1023,0)N. findF∥ and role="math" localid="1654057870125" F⊥.

In June 1997 the NEAR spacecraft ("Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous"; see https//near.jhuapl.edu/), on its way to photograph the asteroid Eros, passed near the asteroid Mathilde. After passing Mathilde, on several occasions rocket propellant was expelled to adjust the spacecraft's momentum in order to follow a path that would approach the asteroid Eros, the final destination for the mission. After getting close to Eros, further small adjustments made the momentum just right to give a circular orbit of radius 45km(45×103m)around the asteroid. So much propellant had been used that the final mass of the spacecraft while in circular orbit around Eros was only 500kg. The spacecraft took 1.04days to make one complete circular orbit around Eros. Calculate what the mass of Eros must be.

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?

An object moving at a constant speed of 23m/sis making a turn with a radius of curvature of 4m(this is the radius of the kissing circle). The object's momentum has a magnitude of . What is the magnitude of the rate of change of the momentum? What is the magnitude of the net force?
