15. FIGURE Q4.15 shows a pendulum at one end point of its arc.

a. At this point, Ó¬is positive, negative, or zero? Explain.

b. At this point, αis positive, negative, or zero? Explain.

FIGURE Q4.15

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (a) At the end point the angular velocity is zero.

Part (b) At the end point angular acceleration is negative.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a)

The relation between tangential velocity and angular velocity is

v=rÓ¬

Here isv tangential velocity and is Ó¬angular velocity.

When the pendulum is at the end point of the arc thenÓ¬ is zero because at the end point the velocity is zero.

02

Part (b)

(b) At the end point angular acceleration 'α' is negative because angular velocity changes from positive value to zero.

A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 3.5 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4.0 m to one side of the point directly under the ball. When a button is pressed, the ball drops and, simultaneously, the cannon fires a 25 g plastic ball. The two balls collide 1.0 m above the floor. What was the launch speed of the plastic ball?

13. A supply plane needs to drop a package of food to scientists working on a glacier in Greenland. The plane flies 100 m above the glacier at a speed of 150 m/s. How far short of the target should it drop the package?

23. FIGURE EX4.23 shows the angular-velocity-versus-time graph for a particle moving in a circle. How many revolutions does the object make during the first 4s

I To withstand "g-forces" of up to10g 's, caused by suddenly BI0 pulling out of a steep dive, fighter jet pilots train on a "human centrifuge." 10g's is an acceleration of 98m/s2. If the length of the centrifuge arm is 12m, at what speed is the rider moving when she experiences 10 g's?

An electromagnet on the ceiling of an airplane holds a steel ball. When a button is pushed, the magnet releases the ball. The experiment is first done while the plane is parked on the ground, and the point where the ball hits the floor is marked with an X. Then the experiment is repeated while the plane is flying level at a steady 500mph. Does the ball land slightly in front of the X (toward the nose of the plane), on the X, or slightly behind the X(toward the tail of the plane)? Explain.
