3. Review Conceptual Example 2 as background for this problem. One kind of slingshot consists of a pocket that holds a pebble and is whirled on a circle of radius r. The pebble is re- leased from the circle at the angle 0, so that it will hit the target. The distance to the target from the center of the circle is d. (See the drawing, which is not to scale.) The circular path is parallel to the ground, and the target lies in the plane Target Pebble 35V0 of the circle. The distance d is ten times the radius r. Ignore the effect of gravity in pulling the stone downward after it is released and find the angle 0. Problem 3

Conceptual Example 2 provides some relevant background for this problem. A jet is circling an airport control tower at a distance of 13.0 km. An observer in the tower watches the jet cross in front of the moon. As seen from the tower, the moon subtends an angle of 8.60x10-3 radians. Find the distance traveled (in meters) by the jet as the observer watches the nose of the jet cross from one side of the moon to the other. Number Units ←

A motorcycle is traveling at a constant speed v when it encounters a circular hill of radius r = 590 m. The operator and motorcycle collectively have mass m = 145 kg. 1)What speed in m/s does the motorcycle have if the operator feels weightlessness (i.e., has an apparent weight of zero) at the top of the hill? 2) If the operator is traveling at the speed above and encounters a hill with a radius 2r, what is the apparent weight of both the operator and the motorcycle in Newtons at the top of the hill?

A three-blade wind turbine, which spins perpendicularly to the ground, is set on a pole that is 38 m tall and completes 5 revolutions in one minute. The length of one blade is approximately 4 m long. One particular blade lies parallel to the ground before the turbine started to spin. b) What is the height of the tip of the blade after one second from start?
The kids in the picture above are playing tetherball. The ball is attached to a rope which is attached to a vertical pole. The rope has a length of 1.6 meters (this is actually the length of the rope plus the radius of the ball, so it is the distance from the center of the ball to the point where the rope is attached to the pole). When the ball is hit, it swings in a circle to the player on the other side. At the time shown in the picture, assume the ball is moving in a horizontal circle and the rope makes an angle theta of 74 degrees with the vertical. At the instant shown in the picture, what is the speed of the ball in meters per second?
A snowboarder drops from rest into a halfpipe of radius R and slides down its frictionless surface to the bottom (see the figure below). A halfpipe is depicted as the bottom half of a circle of radius R. A dashed line traces the path of a snowboarder, shown to enter the halfpipe from its top left edge. At the bottom of the halfpipe, an arrow labeled vector v extends from the snowboarder and points to the right. Show that (a) the snowboarder's speed at the bottom of the halfpipe is v= 2gR, (b) the snowboarder's centripetal acceleration at the bottom is ac = 2g, and (c) the normal force on the snowboarder at the bottom of the halfpipe has magnitude 3mg.
