A solid sphere with mass m and radius a starts moving from point A above the resident hemisphere to radius 3a from the stationary state and always descends on the surface of the hemisphere with full rotation (according to the figure).

Someone is stuck at the top of a tower, and is very thirsty. A heroic dog, weighing 40lbs, carries a bucket of water, weighing 5 lbs, up a helical staircase that encircles a tower with a radius of 15ft. The tower is 60ft high and the dog makes exactly three complete revolutions climbing to the top. Unfortunately the bucket leaks water at a steady rate, and during the ascent, 1lb of water leaks out. How much work is done by the dog against gravity?
Starting from rest at t= 0, a cyclist starts racing at constant acceleration. The wheels of the bicycle are of radius R=0.40 cm and of mass 1 kg each. The combined mass of the man and bicycle frame (without wheels) is 70 kg. When t= 10.0 s, the total kinetic energy of the cyclist and his bicycle is 4,000 J. The acceleration continues until t= 15 s, when it abruptly ceases. Through what angle does the wheel rotate in the interval t=0 to t=30 s? (Consider the wheels as hoops for the purpose of rotational inertia)

A small block with mass m = 17 kg slides on a frictionless track from some initial height through a loop-the-loop with radius R = 6.9 m and then along a flat straight section at the height R/2 above the ground. Assume the block never leaves the smooth track at any point on its path and the track is frictionless What is the minimum speed the block must have at the top of the loop to make it around the loop-the-loop without leaving the track? At what height above the ground must the block begin from rest to make it around the loop-the-loop? It turns out that engineers who designed the loop-the-loop didn’t really know physics – when they made the ride, the initial height was only as high as the top of the loop-the- loop. To account for this honest mistake, they decided to give the block an initial velocity right at the beginning. How fast do they need to push the block at the beginning (now at a height equal to the top of the loop-the-loop) to get it around the loop-the-loop…
What formula would I need to use to solve this problem: The rope of a swing is 2.90 m long. Calculate the angle from the vertical at which a 84.0 kg man must begin to swing in order to have the same KE at the bottom as a 1440 kg car moving at 1.41 m/s (3.15 mph). The decrease in gravitational PE is converted into KE as the man falls. This decrease in gravitational PE depends on the change in height.
