Four of your PHSE 212 classmates, Henco, Elana, California, and Maloma, were studying for the SU 2 eFundi test when they came across the following question in the Physics textbook, which stated that: Two identical stones attached to cords are being whirled on a tabletop at the same speed as show in the drawing below. The radius of the larger circle is twice that of the smaller circle. How is the tension T; in the longer cord related to the tension T2 in the shorter cord? In response to the question, Henco stated that T = 2T2, Elana stated that T, = ½ T2, California stated that T, = 4T2, and Maloma stated that T1 = T2.

A small box is spun in a horizontal circle on a sheet of ice by a light string. You measure thatat a radius of r the tension in the string is T. You pull the string in a bit such that the box is still spinningat the twice the original linear speed but now at a radius of r/2. What’s the tension in the string at this newradius?
In the very Dutch sport of ducth-dude-on-a-pole, athletes run up to a long pole and then use it to vault across a canal. At the very top of his arc, a 70kg vaulter is moving at 3.5m/s and is 5.0m from the bottom end of the pole. What force would the vaulter exert on the pole (in magnitude)?
Can you please provide a complete solution set to this problem? A rollercoaster car is traveling on a track and approaching a loopped portion of track. What is the minimum speed needed at the bottom of the loop to clear the loop? The diameter is 15 meters.
A car of massm travels around a flat, circular curve of radius r at the fastest possible speed, v = 13.5 m/s without sliding off. The car and road have a coefficient of friction, between them. If the car wishes to take the turn at 2.4x the velocity, by what factor would the radius need to increase (so the car doesn't slide off) ? Give your answer to 1 decimal place.
The lift force on an airplane of mass 897 kg with speed v is given by c v2 (N), where c is some constant depending on the air density and wing geometry. The lift force points perpendicular to the wings of the plane, so that if the plane banks by, say 10 degrees, then the lift force turns 10 degrees from the vertical. Now suppose that the pilot of this plane wishes to complete a flat turn of radius 931 m with speed 104 m/s. How much should they bank the plane, in degrees? (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
In an amusement park ride, riders stand against the wall of a spinning cylinder. The floor falls away and the riders are held up by friction. If the radius of the cylinder is 4 m, find the minimum number of revolutions per minute necessary when the coefficient of friction between a rider and the wall is 0.4.
