A marble on a hemisphereA marble of mass m is at rest at the apex of a hemisphere of radius R. It moves slightly andbegins sliding down the side of the hemisphere. At what angle û does the marble lose contactwith the surface of the hemisphere?R(This problem is from Douglas Giancoli's text, Physics for Scientists and Engineers, 2nd ed.(1989).Note: if you solve this problem correctly, you should discover that the angle is independent ofthe mass, gravitational constant, and the radius of the hemisphere – which, if you think aboutit, should be the case.

When an object is moving in circular path of radius R there will be a centripetal acceleration which…

You are in a carnival ride that consists of a circular room that spins around its center. You stand against the wall at the edge of the room. The room spins at a constant rate of one revolution every 5 seconds, and the room has a radius of 5 m. Your mass is 70 kg. After the room reaches it final speed, the floor drops out from beneath you, yet you remain stuck to the wall. What is the magnitude of the normal force exerted on you by the wall, and at what rate (power) does the normal force perform work on you? (Please explain the power that the normal force does work in detail.)
A 3.0 kg cylinder falls from rest through a distance of 6.0 m in an evacuated tube near the surface of the earth. What is its spee after the cylinder has fallen the 6.0 m distance?
A meteoroid is moving towards a planet. It has mass m = 0.54×109 kg and speed v1 = 4.7×107 m/s at distance R1 = 1.6×107 m from the center of the planet. The radius of the planet is R = 0.78×107 m. The mass of the planet is M = 5.6×1025kg. There is no air around the planet. a)Enter an expression for the total energy E of the meteoroid at R, the surface of the planet, in terms of defined quantities and v, the meteoroid’s speed when it reaches the planet’s surface. Select from the variables below to write your expression. Note that all variables may not be required.α, β, θ, d, g, G, h, m, M, P, R, R1, t, v, v1 b)Enter an expression for v, the meteoroid’s speed at the planet’s surface, in terms of G, M, v1, R1, and R. c)Calculate the value of v in meters per second.
The moment of inertia for a set of objects of mass m; rotating about a common axis is defined as 1 = Σm₁r? 2 where r, is the distance of the ith object to the axis of rotation. If there are many particles that make up a larger object then this sum transforms into an integral, 4-fff or a. I = dV, V where p is the mass density and V the volume of the object. In this exercise we will explore moment of inertia by rolling two objects down an incline plane in the Experimental Math Lab Space.
A skateboard of mass m rests on the top of a hemispheric dome of radius R. After giving the skateboard a small kick, imparting an initial speed of vo, it begins rolling down the dome. Let the angle 0 indicate the location of the skateboard as it rolls down the surface of the dome. R 1. Eventually, the skateboard will lose contact with the dome. Given m, R, vo, and g, find the angle 0. at which the skateboard loses contact. Express your answer symbolically (i.e. without numbers). Check your work. Suppose you choose m = 1.5 kg, vo = g = 9.81 m/s. In this case, your answer should evaluate to 0. = 34.2°. 4.5 m/s, R = 4.3 m, and 2. Given m, R, and g, determine the range of speeds for which it is impossible to remain in contact with the wall at all.
Two spheres of masses m = 1.07 g and m' = 1.10 * 10 ^ 2 kg are isolated from all other bodies and are initially at rest, with their centers a distance r = 14 cm apart.

•60 In Fig. 13-50, two satellites, A and B, both of mass m= 125 kg. move in the same circular orbit of radius r= 7.87 x 106 m around Earth but in opposite senses of rotation and therefore on a collision Earth course. (a) Find the total mechanical en- ergy EA + ER of the two satellites + Earth system before the collision. (b) If the collision is completely inelastic so that the wreckage remains as one piece of tan- gled material (mass = 2m), find the total mechanical energy immediately after the collision. (c) Just after the collision, is the wreckage falling directly toward Earth's center or or- biting around Earth? Figure 13-50 Problem 60.
Riders in an amusement park ride shaped like a Viking ship hung from a large pivot are rotated back and forth like a rigid pendulum. Sometime near the middle of the ride, the ship is momentarily motionless at the top of its circular arc. The ship then swings down under the influence of gravity. (a) Assuming negligible friction, find the speed of the riders at the bottom of its arc, given the system's center of mass travels in an arc having a radius of 14.0 m and the riders are near the center of mass. (b) What is the centripetal acceleration at the bottom of the arc? (c) Draw a free body diagram of the forces acting on a rider at the bottom of the arc. (d) Find the force exerted by the ride on a 60.0 kg rider and compare it to her weight. (e) Discuss whether the answer seems reasonable.

An approximately spherical exoplanet in a faraway galaxy happens to have a mass that is only (3/5) times our Earth’s mass. Curiously enough, any object abandoned near its surface will fall with the same vertical acceleration as it would on our Earth (that is, the exoplanet's g is equal to our terrestrial g). (a) What must be the average radius of such an exoplanet for this strange coincidence to be true? (b) If you weighed 650 N on the Earth, how much would you weigh on this exoplanet? 1
