*77. ssm In outer space two identical space modules are joined together by a massless cable. These modules are rotating about their center of mass, which is at the center of the cable because the modules are identical (see the drawing). In each module, the cable is connected to a motor, so that the modules can pull each other together. The initial tangential speed of each module is V, = 17 m/s. Then they pull together until the distance between them is reduced by a factor of two. Each module has a final tan- gential speed of v. Find the value of v. Center of mass

While placing a compact disc into a CD player, you notice a small chip on its edge. You attempt to play the CD anyway by placing the CD into the player's deck with the chip at ?0=15.2∘θ0=15.2∘ as measured from the +?+x‑axis. The CD begins to rotate with angular acceleration ?=2.31 rad/s2.α=2.31 rad/s2. If the CD has been spinning for ?=3.51 st=3.51 s and the disc has a radius of ?=6.00 cm,r=6.00 cm, what are the ?–?x–y coordinates of the chip after this time, assuming the center of the disc is located at (0.00,0.00)

*31. C At the local swimming hole, a favorite trick is to run horizontally off a cliff that is 8.3 m above the water. One diver runs off the edge of the cliff, tucks into a “ball," and rotates on the way down with an average angular speed of 1.6 rev/s. Ignore air resistance and determine the number of revolutions she makes while on the way down.
1. The horizontal circular platform weighs 500 lb and has a radius of gyration of kz = 8 ft from the z-axis passing through O. The platform is free to rotate about the z-axis and is initially at rest. A person having a weight of 150 lb begins to run along the edge in a circular path of radius 10 ft. If they maintain a speed of 4 ft/s relative to the platform, determine the angular velocity of the 10 ft platform. Neglect friction. I don't think we have dealt with relative velocity in this context, but it follows our earlier relative velocity treatment. Here all speeds are in the t-direction. vp is the speed of the person, and vp is the speed of the disk at the location of the person. Then vp = vp + Vp/D, same as before. You are given vpp = 4 ft/s.
