A hunter places a 1.0 kg rock in a sling and swings it in a horizontal circle around his head on a 1.0 m long vine. If the vine breaks at a tension of 200 N, what is the magnitude of the maximum tangential speed in SI units with which he can swing the rock? Please see the figure below. Hint: Draw a free-body diagram for the stone, and let the coordinate axis (0,0) be centered on the stone. Also, assume the acceleration of the stone is along the x-axis.

A 1.67 kg disc is attached to the end of a string whose length is 0.39 m. The disc slides without friction on a horizontal surface as indicated in the Figure. If the string can withstand a maximum tension of 96.9 N, what is the maximum tangential speed the disc can have before the cord breaks? HINT: The centripetal force exerted by the string on the mass must be the result of all the forces acting, i.e. the tension. m/s R The disc is whirled in a vertical circle of the same radius about a fixed point. Find the tension at the top if the speed at the top is 2.66 m/s. HINT: The centripetal force whish is the force that accelerates the mass towards the center, equals the sum of all of the forces acting on the mass. At the top, both the mass and the tension provide that force. N
A “blink of an eye” is a time interval of about 150 ms for an average adult. The “closure” portion of the blink takes only about 55 ms.

Two bugs, Buzz and Crunchy, are siting on a spinning disk on a horizontal plane. Buzz is sitting halfway and Crunchy is sitting at the outer edge as shown. The radius of the disk is 0.80 m and the disk is rotating with an angular speed of 38 rpm. The coefficient of friction between the bugs and the disk are us = 0.80 and uk = 0.60. What is the magnitude of the friction force on Buzz, in Newtons? Buzz has a mass of 2.0 kg (I know, a big bug!). Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement. Crunchy
