Is the center of mass of the dumbbell in FIGURE Q12.1 at point a, b, or c? Explain.
A hollow sphere is rolling along a horizontal floor at 5.0 m/s when it comes to a 30o颅 incline. How far up the incline does it roll before reversing direction?
A 45 kg figure skater is spinning on the toes of her skates at 1.0 rev/s. Her arms are outstretched as far as they will go. In this orientation, the skater can be modeled as a cylindrical torso (40 kg, 20 cm average diameter, 160 cm tall) plus two rod-like arms (2.5 kg each, 66 cm long) attached to the outside of the torso. The skater then raises her arms straight above her head, where she appears to be a 45 kg, 20-cm-diameter, 200-cm-tall cylinder. What is her new angular velocity, in rev/s?
Evaluate the cross products and
In FIGURE CP12.88, a 200 g toy car is placed on a narrow 60-cm-diameter track with wheel grooves that keep the car going in a circle. The 1.0 kg track is free to turn on a frictionless, vertical axis. The spokes have negligible mass. After the car鈥檚 switch is turned on, it soon reaches a steady speed of 0.75 m/s relative to the track. What then is the track鈥檚 angular velocity, in rpm?
