Chapter 8: Q. 52 (page 201)

Suppose you swing a ball of mass m in a vertical circle on a string of length L. As you probably know from experience, there is a minimum angular velocity 蝇min you must maintain if you want the ball to complete the full circle without the string going slack at the top.
a. Find an expression for 蝇min

b. Evaluate蝇minin rpm for a 65 g ball tied to a 1.0-m-long string.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The expression 蝇min=gr

b) The value of 蝇min = 30 rpm for the given ball.

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step 1: Given Information

mass = m
string length= L.

02

Part(a) Step 2 : Explanation

First draw a free body diagram as below then equate forces

At top point equate vertical force, we get

T=(mv2r)-mg

To avoid slack this force must be greater than or equal to zero

That means

mv2r-mg鈮�0v2r-g鈮�0(Cancelingm)v鈮�rg

Substitute v=蝇r

蝇r鈮�rg蝇鈮�gr

So

蝇min=gr..............................(1)

03

Part(b) Step 1  : Given information

mass = 65 g ball

Length of string =1.0-m

04

Part(b) Step 2 : Explanation

Substitute the values in equation (1), we get

蝇min=gr=9.8m/s21m=3.132rad/sec

Convert into rpm

蝇=(3.132rad/s)(12蟺rad)(60sec1min)=29.908rpm鈮�30rpm.

A 60 g ball is tied to the end of a 50-cm-long string and swung in a vertical circle. The center of the circle, as shown in FIGURE P8.57, is 150 cm above the floor. The ball is swung at the
minimum speed necessary to make it over the top without the string going slack. If the string is released at the instant the ball is at the top of the loop, how far to the right does the ball hit the ground?

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. Because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. Any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. Suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. If the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples?

A 500 g steel block rotates on a steel table while attached to a 2.0-m-long massless rod. Compressed air fed through the rod is ejected from a nozzle on the back of the block, exerting a thrust force of 3.5 N. The nozzle is 70o颅 from the radial line, as shown in FIGURE P8.62. The block starts from rest.
a. What is the block鈥檚 angular velocity after 10 rev?
b. What is the tension in the rod after 10 rev?

As a science fair project, you want to launch an 800g model rocket straight up and hit a horizontally moving target as it passes 30m above the launch point. The rocket engine provides a constant thrust of 15.0N. The target is approaching at a speed of 15m/s. At what horizontal distance between the target and the rocket should you launch?
