In the figure, a small 0.176 kg block slides down a frictionless surface through height h = 0.427 m and then sticks to a uniform vertical rod of mass M = 0.352 kg and length d = 2.46 m. The rod pivots about point O through angle θ before momentarily stopping. Find θ.
A rigid body is made of three identical rods, each with length L 0.775 m, fastened together in the form of a letter H, as in the figure below. The body is free to rotate about a horizontal axis that runs along the length of one of the legs of the H. The body is allowed to fall from rest from a position in which the plane of the H is horizontal. What is the angular speed of the body when the plane of the H is vertical? rad/s L L L PERA
A uniform solid sphere having mass M = 50.0 g and a radius R = 0.30 m rolls on a horizontal surface and then rolls up an incline at an angle of 30.0° as shown below in Figure 2. At the bottom of the incline the center of mass of the sphere has a translational speed of 4.2 m/s. If the frictional losses are negligible, how far does the sphere travel up along the incline? Hint: You can apply the principle of conservation of energy to solve the problem.) Figure 2 4.2 m/s 30.0⁰
A solid cylinder is mounted above the ground with its axis of rotation oriented horizontally. A rope is wound around the cylinder and its free end is attached to a block of mass 57.5 kg that rests on a platform. The cylinder has a mass of 225 kg and a radius of 0.480 m. Assume that the cylinder can rotate about its axis without any friction and the rope is of negligible mass. The platform is suddenly removed from under the block. The block falls down toward the ground and as it does so, it causes the rope to unwind and the cylinder to rotate.

Nonuniform cylindrical object. In the figure, a cylindrical object of mass M and radius R rolls smoothly from rest down a ramp and onto a horizontal section. From there it rolls off the ramp and onto the floor, landing a horizontal distance d = 0.470 m from the end of the ramp. The initial height of the object is H = 0.92 m; the end of the ramp is at height h = 0.13 m. The object consists of an outer cylindrical shell (of a certain uniform density) that is glued to a central cylinder (of a different uniform density). The rotational inertia of the object can be expressed in the general form | = ßMR², but ẞ is not 0.5 as it is for a cylinder of uniform density. Determine ẞ. H Number Units h T
