Chapter 8: Q. 71 (page 203)

If a vertical cylinder of water (or any other liquid) rotates about its axis, as shown in FIGURE CP8.71, the surface forms a smooth curve. Assuming that the water rotates as a unit (i.e., all the water rotates with the same angular velocity), show that the shape of the surface is a parabola described by the equationz=蝇22gr2

Hint: Each particle of water on the surface is subject to only two forces: gravity and the normal force due to the water underneath it. The normal force, as always, acts perpendicular to the surface.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Shape of the parabola is described by the equation z=蝇22gr2

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The figure shows the detail

02

Explanation

First draw Free Body diagram as below

From the diagram equate the vertical and radial force

Gravitational force, F = mg 鈥︹�︹�︹�︹�︹��..(1)

Radial Force Fradial=mr蝇2

Lets consider a very small element at radius dr and the height of the water above the surface is dh

The angle given as

tan蠒=mr蝇2mg=r蝇2g鈥�鈥�鈥�鈥�鈥�.鈥�(2)tan蠒=dzdr鈥�鈥�鈥�鈥�.....鈥�鈥�鈥�(3)

From equation (2) and (3) we get

dzdr=r蝇2gdz=r蝇2gdr

Upon integration we get

z=蝇22gr2

In an amusement park ride called The Roundup, passengers stand inside a 16-m-diameter rotating ring. After the ring has acquired sufficient speed, it tilts into a vertical plane, as shown in FIGURE P8.51.
a. Suppose the ring rotates once every 4.5 s. If a rider鈥檚 mass is 55 kg, with how much force does the ring push on her at the top of the ride? At the bottom?
b. What is the longest rotation period of the wheel that will prevent the riders from falling off at the top?

A toy train rolls around a horizontal 1.0-m-diameter track. The coefficient of rolling friction is 0.10. How long does it take the train to stop if it鈥檚 released with an angular speed of 30 rpm?

A 4.0*1010kg asteroid is heading directly toward the center of the earth at a steady 20km/s. To save the planet, astronauts strap a giant rocket to the asteroid perpendicular to its direction of travel. The rocket generates 5.0*109N of thrust. The rocket is fired when the asteroid is 4.0*106km away from earth. You can ignore the earth鈥檚 gravitational force on the asteroid and their rotation about the sun.

a. If the mission fails, how many hours is it until the asteroid impacts the earth?

b. The radius of the earth is 6400km. By what minimum angle must the asteroid be deflected to just miss the earth?

c. What is the actual angle of deflection if the rocket fires at full thrust for300s before running out of fuel?

Suppose the moon were held in its orbit not by gravity but by a massless cable attached to the center of the earth. What would be the tension in the cable? Use the table of astronomical data inside the back cover of the book

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?
