Background: A full non-uniform circular motion We are going to have an object completing a full circle. A smart-cart was swiveled in the vertical (i.e. in front of us). The cart’s mass is ~240 grams and is hanging from a 0.5 m inextensible light string. In this experiment, the time in seconds and force of tension in Newtons for the smart-cart was measured. a) Find an algebraic equation that relates the minimum/maximum tension to the minimum/maximum linear speed so that the speed magnitudes may be estimated. b) What would be a good way to approximate the linear acceleration at a given time? (i.e. ~3.25 s, which is approximately halfway between the minimum and maximum tension values)
2. A block of mass m is moving with speed v along a horizontal surface when it collides with a uniform rod of mass 2m and length L attached at one end to a pivot. The surface and pivot have negligible friction. The rod is vertical when the block collides with the end of the rod. The block sticks to the rod, and the block-rod system rotates so that the end of the rod reaches a height h, as shown above. The total rotational inertia of the rod about the pivot is 2mL/3. Express answers in parts (a), (b), and (c) in terms of m, L, v, and physical constants as appropriate. 2m, L a. Derive an expression for the angular speed of the block-rod system immediately after the collision. b. Show that the change in height h of the bottom of the rod can be given by the equation A = 3v-/20g. c. Derive an expression for the mechanical energy dissipated during the collision.
